So I am finalizing my order from Nik and I have decided to go with the Ceriatone 'FM' With modern eagle mod. I was wondering what are you guys/gals going with... 50 watter or 100 watter? From everything I have ever read it seem's that a 100 watter is the way to go... just curious about what everyone is going with.

Thanks.

Well i went with the 50Watt FM50 and love it. It is loud enough for anything i will ever use it for!
I have not played a 100 watter so cant give comparison.
It is cheaper on tube replacement, especially if you go NOS.

Not sure, but I've heard the only real difference will be the amount of clean headroom!
Loudness difference between the two is only 3db fully cranked

I think it depends on what you're planning on doing with it. 100 watts is probably a better choice for gigging and will probably resell better. For at home playing 50 watts will serve you adequately. My 50 watt bluesmaster is blisteringly loud at even low settings in my small studio.
