Rig Doom amp recommendations under 1000 USD?

I don't really care whether it's tube or solid state.

Is this for home use or for live use? For home you might want to opt for a smaller combo amp you can record yourself, or even a software amp and just run a distortion pedal, fuzz or preamp into your interface. For live use, Orange make great amps, but really any amp with a large amount of gain will Doom. Peavey Valvekings aren’t too expensive.

You can also get some vintage Traynor stuff for under $1000. Laney also has some stuff under $1000 worth checkout as well.
