"Good deal."

Feature:
Has two channels and all the stuff two channels should have. Reverb is really, really weak.

Quality:
Made very well as far as I can tell. The covering on it is thin. It will scratch, and in a while will probably look like hell. Its guts are well protected though which is what matters.

Value:
Definately worth the price. I think you are getting a much better deal here than with the competitors in this category.

Desirability:
Pretty sexy with the Ibanez logo on it (if youa re into Ibanez that is). Like I sad though, I think it is going to scratch pretty easily.

Sound:
Sounds pretty darn good. The distortion on the hot channel is excellent. If you are playing rock or metal you don't need any additional distortion. However, if you want that scooped out thrash sound this won't do it on its own. Get a pedal.

Ease of Use:
Easy. All the nobs are the the standard standard stuff that everyone should know what to do with.

Overall:
I plan to be using this for a long, long time. Does exactly what I need for it to do.

"Don't be a snob!!!"

Feature:
Good features overall, like the independent reverbs. Also the compartment in the back for storing your footswitch and/or cables. I could do without the x-mode and just have a normal boost for the drive channel though.

Quality:
So far it has held up well.

Value:
For $250 this is a very good value. Loud enough for gigs. Need to buy footswitch seperately though, so an 8.

Desirability:
Great looking amp too. Modern appeal.

Sound:
Spirit and soul come more from your fingers and style than anything else. If your just gonna wank on one note all the time and go "Oh God , the tone!", then maybe its not for you. But for people that know how to play, they can make any amp sound good. The parametric mid eq provides a great deal of flexibility. The clean is relatively warm and clear, the overdrive does a good grit, and the drive channel can go from a good crunch up to heavy chunking. Loud enough to get over a loud drummer and then some, just remember if your cab is rated more than 4 ohms the power will be reduced somewhat (150 at 4, 100 watts at 8 ohms). Pinch harmonics are easy on this amp. VERY good bass response for palm mutes. My one complaint is that there is a slight noise when you switch channels, kind of a "click". X-mode will get you an MT-2 type of sound, not really a boost for the normal drive. I have played and bought countless amps over the years and this beats many tube amps that I have had. If you are obsessed with the tube amp sound, get a tube amp. If you are obsessed with good distortion bite, character and saturation, give this one a try... I use an Ibanez Raodstar II with a humbucker in the bridge position into a Carvin cab.

Ease of Use:
No issues.

Support:
Heve not dealt with the company yet.

Overall:
Overall a great bang for the buck and then some...
