I am a new guitar player - I have been playing for about 2 years now. I have never owned an amp, and my current setup is an FM3 into a pair of HS7 studio monitors.
Part of me wants to buy a real amp and cab just to have one (some of these more modern amps look pretty interesting with built-in load boxes and even IR loaders). The other part of me worries that it would just be a waste of money because the Fractal is just as good (or better).
Reading this forum, I see some people sell all their amps and pedals and go exclusively digital, while others keep some amps around. Since I never started with an amp, I have no prior experience to compare my FM3 against.
Any words of wisdom to share? Being a new guitar player should I stay 100% digital? Or is there value in me getting at least one real tube amp at some point?
