Jukedy-
I actually ended up buying a b-stock Marshall origin 5c from Thomann for €183, and it sounds great but much louder than I had expected.
After much deliberation, I put an order in for a positive grid spark from Amazon, and subsequently cancelled it due to buyers remorse, but after a day of exploring alternative options it became obvious that it was a bit of a bargain for what it is, so re-ordered again and should have it tomorrow or Thursday.
TBD if I hang onto the Marshall for when the wife is out or if I move it on, I’ll see when the spark arrives.

After a ~15 year hiatus, I’m ready to pick up another guitar, but I’m a bit lost on what the go to “starter” kit is these days.
I have a budget of about €500 to get myself set up for home practice, and was thinking of squire affinity strat and Marshall origin 5, because I’ve always longed for a small valve amp.
Is there anything better worth considering?
