From Our Catalog
New for 2004, the GT1200H features many unique technologies that make Crate solid-state amps the choice of players everywhere. Crate's patented "FlexWave Evolution 5" circuitry replicates the tone, response and feel of tubes in a solid-state circuit in a way that no other amplifier can. It adds a little compression, low-end distortion and a great tactile feel to the preamp circuit.
This affordable Crate head delivers the flexibility of 3 independent channels, master spring Reverb, and Crate's incredible FlexWave Evolution 5 preamp. The GT1200H is a 120-watt powerhouse with Gain, Shape and Level controls on its Solo channel; Gain, 3-band EQ and Level on its Rhythm channel; and Volume and 3-band EQ on the Clean channel. The GT1200H head also features RCA CD inputs to which you can connect your CD, tape or MP3 player, so you can practice with your favorite tracks. Includes a CFS3 metal footswitch for Channel, Gain and Reverb control.

Crate GT1200H Guitar Amplifier Head (120 Watts) Reviews
5 out of 10
"The honest truth about this product from an honest Christian"
Feature:
this amp came with a three channel footswith that also included a switch for the reverb."Superb Job!"
Quality:
it could stand more abuse on the road because it is a solid state and i dont have to worry about tubes breaking. cosmetics look clean. i personally keep this as a backup because i also own a 150w all tube head.
Value:
i feel i truly got my moneys worth for the gt1200h.
Desirability:
it looks pretty schnazzy.
Sound:
I personally beleive that there should be 3 individual E.Q.'s for the clean, rhythm, and solo channels. the problem w/switching back between rhythm and solo is that they share the same low,mid,and high; therefore i have to constantly redial my settings everytime. i dont beleive i can excell on stage if i have to stop playing to change settings every time i change channels.
Support:
the only way i could contact crate was through the internet. "They Don't know how to pick up a damn phone!!!"
Overall:
it is a solidstate amp,(and we all know that tube amps rule), so it is only a matter of time to put the money together to afford an all tube head.

"Good stuff for the price."
Feature:
The footswitch is great. The reverb is okay. No effects. That could be good or bad depending on if you use them or not.
Quality:
Everything works great so far.
Value:
This is a great deal. Very low price for a lot of power.
Desirability:
Doesn't look very cool. But its not ugly.
Sound:
The sound is good. For example, the rhythm channel is great for punk and the solo channel is great for metal. Personally, I like the sound of my stompbox better, but the distortion is decent. Add some reverb to the solo channel and set your guitar's three way switch to 1 (neck PU only) and you will be amazed by the sound. The clean channel is really the reason why I got this. The preamps make it sound very nice. Not too crisp but not too warm.
Support:
Haven't had to contact them.
Overall:
Great amp for the price. Good solid state. I'd rather have a loud tube head, but seeing how expensive they are, I will settle for this.
