This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
I bought this amp 1 year ago and I am still pleased, but I am selling it to a friend so that I can purchase a Crate Flexwave half stack.
Sound
Personally, this amp is perfect for my music, metal. The high gain is amazing! It is better than most pedals or any other amp, stack or combo, around. The clean is crystal clear and the overdrive is impressive as well.
Features
This product had everything I needed. It came with a pedal to change from clean to overdrive to high gain in one step. The pedal included the ability to turn the built in effects on and off. I rarely use the effects due to the fact that I believe it muddles the sound, but I must say that the effects do sound very nice.
Ease of Use
Plug in, and play basically.
Quality
I have never had a problem with the quality of this amp. I have toted this thing up and down steps, threw bushes, and everywhere in between. I haven't had any components come loose or fall apart.
Value
When I purchased this item, I considered lots of different amps. I looked at Marshals, Peaveys, Ravens, and just about everything else. I chose this amp because it was the right price and had everything I needed at the time.
Manufacturer Support
Due to the fact that I haven't had to replace anything this amp is the best.
The Wow Factor
I believe this amp is very "sexy." It has a nice exterior and is "heavy duty."
