G'day, I do most my guitar playing and all my practice sitting. My favourite amp, Vox pathfinder 15r, has controls on top, which I find annoying to change when sitting. I have a Fender Champion 20 which does have controls on front, but makes an annoying pop when the amp is turned off, a known issue. I've thought of Bugera V5 Infinium, it does have front controls, but I don't know if my lack of skills justifies a tube amp or cost.

So, looking for practice amp recommendations for bedroom practice for 60 year old male playing for self satisfaction, beginner/intermediate, no dreams of taking the stage! Prefer not a modelling amp and definitely not an amp with software, updates. Price range up to AUD500. Thanks.
