Amp recommendations

[Walter Sobchak]

I started the learning the guitar recently and am slowly grasping it, I can change between open chords pretty well and am soon going to start on barre chords, only thing is I'm not particularly happy with the amp I've got, it seems to be quite buzzy and bad sounding - it's a Squier SP10, my guitar sounds a lot better when plugged into my tutors amp.
I'm not looking for anything particularly bigger as I just want it as a practice amp at home, just better quality that will last me for a while.
Budget wise I'd be looking at £100-£200, sound wise, I currently have a Squier Strat but plan to buy a proper US one within the next 6 months so preferably something that works well with a Strat.
Any advice much appreciated.

Thanks for the replies, they've been really useful, I'm going to have a better look online over the weekend and see what's around, those Rolands look pretty good for the money.
I really only need something small at the moment as I now live in a flat and don't want to annoy the people below me!.
While I'm not at a stage where I can appreciate effects at the moment I'd certainly like to have them available for me to experiment with once I've learned to play a bit more.
I will be sticking with the Squier for at least the next 6 months but after that I'd like to get either a US standard or if I can find a good used one a '62 reissue.

I went to Andertons today and bought a Roland Cube 10 GX it's perfect for what I need at the moment.
I'd like to know where I need to set the gain at, the rest is fairly straightforward.
One other thing about that place wow they've got some nice guitars in there!, it took quite a bit of willpower not to buy one!.
One thing that surprised me was how glossy the maple fingerboards were on all the Fender models.

Thanks guys, have been playing about with amp settings today, unfortunately I've ended up with a new guitar to go with it too

I have a pretty varied taste but in terms of guitar players I really like, I have a huge appreciation for the greats-Hendrix,Clapton,Rory Gallagher.

For more modern players I've always really liked the sound of John Frusciante,Dan Auerbach and Jonny Greenwood.
I expect it will be quite a while before I will be attempting to learn any of the mentioned above songs though!, and if I've made the wrong amp choice I'm fairly certain I've at least made the right guitar one.
