"Hartke 5500 Bass Amplifier"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Unless this amp dies a horrible death, or some jackass manages to steal it (not a wise decision on their part, trust me,) I don't see myself replace this.
Sound
To me, it is one of the best amps I've ever played though. Plently of volume and excellent tone, especially through my 2x15 cabinet.
Features
It has all I require. Set the EQ, hook up my chorus pedal, and I'm ready to go.
Quality
It looks good and seems to be well built. Hopefully it won't crap put like my Ampeg did.
Value
Like I said above, the best amp I've played through. I really like Hartke gear. Excellent value. Can't beat the price.
The Wow Factor
I wish they had this amp years ago. Would have saved me a lot of grief. I think I will be using nothing but Hartke equipment from now on.

Musical Style:

Electronic based rock with New Wave, Classic Rock, & Gothic influences.
