Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (8 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great budget Head!!"
Sound: The tone of this amp is amazing. With this being said, don't think that you will get a sparkly Fender clean sound. This is not the amp for clean headroom! This amp is a bout crunch and gain. The first channel which is called crunch provides a thick and crisp overdrive when gain is past 3. Clean tones are attainable with gain below 5 and adequate control with guitar volume and delicate picking. The overdrive does rool off nocely with guitar volume and with the gain at 3/4 can put many amplifier lead channels to shame. The second channel is labeled "overdrive" and kicks like a 3-legged nija. The gain has gain on top of gain and can achieve heavy tones with a nice tight edgy sound. Anything from old to modern is attainable. Feature: Footswitch is include and is built like a tank. It has a nice visible blue LED. Ease of Use: The controls on this head are made simple enough for the slowest learners. Each channel has a gain and volume which is nice to achieve desired sound levels, but lacks a master volume which is no big deal. The effects loops is good, but will wash out reverb if gain is set to a high level. I have tried with many different pick-up combinations, but this amp accells with humbuckers, especially if they are active. Quality: Not built like a tank!!The amp is made for players on a budget and looks good. It could be built tougher, but for the money it is definately worth it. Value: This amp is priced for players on a budget and .......just buy it, you won't be disappointed.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Great hard rock sound"
Sound: This amp gives you the hot fodder jcm 800 sound without the costs and extra pedals. Lots of usable gain. Has a unique sound. Feature: Footswitch is included and is very sturdy. It also has a long cable to connect to the head. Ease of Use: Great sounds can be dialed in fairly quickly and the controls are usable throughout their range. The effects loop is kind of a pain because it is line level and does not sound good with basic stomp box effects. Rack effects will work great though. Quality: Seems sturdy and pretty well made. Much better than others in this price range. Just replace the cheap tubes and this amp will be very reliable. I think it will hold up to hugging but a backup is always a good idea. Value: Well worth the price. Sounds better than many $1000+ amplifiers. Manufacturer Support: Have not dealt with them yet. The Wow Factor: Looks aren't the best but it can be customized easily. Overall: I will be keeping this amp and just adding it to my collection. Sounds great.
