"Honest review for a great amp"

Feature:
I love that it comes with the tuner that works when muted, the backlit display is great, and the footswitch and wattage. The only grippe I have is that it has no line out. Almost everyone is including that these days. Otherwise, jam packed! Good effects too.

Quality:
The one I tried worked great, but I left it on the stage overnight, and in the morning, it needed to be restarted twice before it would work again. This might just be from the amp being used. But it feels like it can take quite a beating.

Value:
I would say that despite missing a line out, this amp is by far the best value for your money. The effects, the lighted display, the footswitch, power and sound all blow away anything else at that price.

Desirability:
Like I said, other than the line out, it has everything I need and want. Fantastic amp.

Sound:
The sounds was great, but it seemed to crack a bit on the clean channel if it was brought up too high. And I'm only talking less than 50%. Some tweaking could fix this though

Ease of Use:
Quite easy to use. Anyone can get a good sound in a matter of minutes.

Support:
I havent needed to contact them. They cover basic things on the site, but until I run into a bigger problem, I won't know.

Overall:
I'd say until they make a better one, (with line out) or come up with somekind of Tube/acoustic compatible hybrid, I won't have any need to switch other than maybe needing more power for certain venues. But even then, there are ways to get around even that.

"BEFORE YOU BUY THIS PRODUCT........PLEASE READ"

Feature:
a built in Chromatic tuner, and 16 "DSP" effects makes this amp obsolete.

Quality:
Crate has nicly put this amp together, It is easy on the eyes and heavy for the ears, well worth the price.

Value:
all I got to say is Worth the money!!!!!!!!

Desirability:
I think that this is a amp that will fit in anywhere, the exterior of the amp is black, and the lights are red, nothing wrong with black and red, when you play metal.

Sound:
The "Solo" option on here really kicks it up a natch. I have had nothing but Crate amps, and I would not own any other brand name

Support:
words of wisdom, keep your warranty, just incase you damage the amp, you don't want to have to pay for it. Crate has a really helpful personal.

Overall:
The best amp in my opinion, for a band just starting out, or a novice that just wants to blast a tune in their ears time to time. Great investment.
