"good gig amp worth the extra few hundred"

Feature:
9 band eq, limiter not much else in the way of features, its pretty simple

Quality:
very well made. better than the hartke5500 and ashdown mag 300 i had, it can pump out loads of volume and doesnt get the least bit hot, the limiter really helps in longevity. everything on it feels solid, all the pots are tight and its heavy

Value:
worth it

Sound:
the sound is great, from slap to blues this amp can make the sound you want with its 9 band equaliser, with it turned off it still sounds great and is easy to adjust.

Support:
never had to contact them, i have a crate combo that i have played at full volume for ages, and not one problem.

"Technically proficient, solid as a rock product."

Feature:
It had every interface you could ever want. All with sturdy construction.

Quality:
Great product. Well built, functions perfectly and has a solid as a rock construction.

Value:
I am a guy who doesn't like to spend money if I don't have to, but this was probably worth the investment.

Desirability:
I love the color scheme and materials it's made from. It's beautiful. The only thing I would want is a tube driven circuit, but that's not practical for this price.

Sound:
My bass is very cheap so it acts as the weakest link. I used it with a good six stringer and it sang. The tone sensitivities of the potentiometers could have been better, but with the 9 band, it works just fine. This is probably just because I have a passive bass.

Ease of Use:
To people new to electronics or musical equipment, it could be a struggle at first. I have a background in music and electronics so it was self explanitory.

Support:
I have never needed any assistance and I don't expect to.

Overall:
I will probably keep this product for a very long time. Even the potentiometers have wipers that don't make scratching at all. It's made from quality electrical components.
