Here’s a typical email i get about amps. What would you tell him?

Hi Brad,

You run a business and you probably get a lot of stuff related to your YouTube channels, so I certainly understand if you don't have time for this.

After the tone experienced from a Ryan Adams show a couple of weeks ago, I've decided to go back to a tube amp. He was running a killer rig with two Benson Chimera heads with a Benson Tall Bird reverb unit for each head. Needless to say - that's way out of my price range,

I wanted to get some recommendations for a tube amp head. I've heard so many opinions. I'm on a tight budget because I really want to also pick up a Two Notes Captor X when playing live. I need to stay around $500 - $700 and I need an effects loop because I want to use my Helix for effects. I've looked at stuff like Marshall Origins, Hughes and Kettner Grandmeister 40 Deluxe, and even a Bassman (I was told by an amp repair guy in the shop that he could install an effects loop easily. He highly recommended a hand-wired amp (no shit).
The main reason I'm contacting you is to see if you have recommendations or, even more importantly, amps that I should stay away from because of negative experiences you've had on the bench. The Marshall Origins seem to be decent, but the web has mixed comments. Any help would be appreciated. I also have a quad cortex that can capture amps that are pretty much dead on accurate (Somebody uploaded a real Dumble recently), but I like old school knobs, etc and you end up endlessly fiddling with the options with a QC. So any help with suggestions would be appreciated if you have the time. I need a 30 w but could go 50w if necessary..
