"Total Value"

Overall:
This amp has served me during rehearsal,live gigs,and most definetly for recordings.I play all styles and this amp lets me dial in the right tone.For the price by far it is the greatest value and tone.I was going to buy a Marshall amp next but I was so impressed with Crate amps, that my next amp is going to be their 100/50 watt tube amp priced so affordable.That so called Marshall sound is so overated.

"Best for the buck"

Feature:
The footswitch is amazing. It originally attracted me to buy one, and I have to say its awesome. Its so easy switching between settings. I also like the cd input, used it once or twice and its handy for practicing.

Quality:
This thing is solid as a rock. Nothings broken yet and Ive had it for about half a year. For some reason something rattles when you move the amp around a lot, but i don't know what it is. It doesn't really bother me that much though.

Value:
You may be thinking, "eh 120 amp for under 200 bucks? and its crate? no way" I thought the same. But this baby can do it all. Its the best for the buck. Get it, you'll be as happy as I am.

Desirability:
The price and the foot switch made me go for this amp.

Sound:
The settings on this amp are pretty good. The clean does the job when I need it, however I don't use it a lot. The rhythm setting gives that nice classic rock sound and it has great distortion. The solo rhythm is sickk. The shape knob is awesome since you can scoop your mids and such, going from sweet solo sounds to heavy chunky metal distortion. I wouldn't buy a distortion pedal as this amp I believe gets the job done. Plus its loud as hell, still haven't turned it up all the way, even at gigs. This is no Marshall but it doesn't matter. I love the tone and the sound from this.

Ease of Use:
Very easy to modify the sounds and to get different tones, especially on the solo channel.

Support:
Never had to call them because nothing ever happened

Overall:
Sure this amp cant compare to a Mesa Boogie, Fender or Marshall, but I love it so much. If it were stolen I would definitely buy another one. I used to think negatively about crate but now I respect them so much more, this amp has great tone, volume, and features. Sure there aren't effects, but with the money you save, you can get a couple pedals if you really want them.
