What size amp do I need for my guitar?
You’ll need at least 30 watts for playing live with a rock band, but smaller amps often provide surprisingly huge sounds in the studio—just ask Jimmy Page. Also, as a rule of thumb, if you’re playing out often, you might want to shoot for at least 15 watts of tube tone.

How loud is a 20w guitar amp?
A 20-watt guitar amp is pretty loud compared to sounds in the normal world, but in a band situation, it may not be enough.

Are more watts better?
The higher the wattage, the brighter the light, but also the more power it uses. The efficiency of this system was introduced using incandescent lamps. For instance: 100 Watt incandescent lamp produces 1700 – 1800 lumens and uses 100 Watts of energy per hour.
