"Awesome"

Feature:
This amp needs 2 things to be perfect. Reverb, and an gain switch instead of just knob. For the price, i gues reverb could be skipped, but as for the gain/distortion, there is always a tiny bit of distortion, even with gain set to 0. I play acoustic as well as electric, and for small practices or shows, I use this amp with my acoustic. No one has ever noticed the small amount of distortion, but I do. Overall, it's pretty well suited.

Quality:
I'd say this amp would be perfect for on the road, if you're playing small shows, or just jamming with the guys. It's dependable and I've only had problems when the battery runs low. When that happens, you just run out, buy a new $1 battery, stuff it in, and keep jammin'.

Value:
This amp was definately worth $60. I love the Marshall distortion. It's distinctive, and you can tell its a marshall without even seeing it.

Desirability:
This amp isn't really very "sexy" I mean, size is supposed to matter right? It's not a whopper, but it sure as hell kicks like one. Point for me! size doesn't matter!

Sound:
For a mini-amp, this thing is awesome, it kicks perfectly to get a good sound for Our Lady Peace, or you can crank it to get a heavy sound for Slipknot. Its the most versatile mini-amp I've played.

Ease of Use:
This amp is extremely easy to use. I'm yet to find an amp that isnt...

Support:
Never had to deal with support.

Overall:
I like this amp a lot! I expect to use it for atleast 10 more years til it dies. then i'll just go buy another. It's as close to a Marshall full stack as I'll ever own, and I love it.

"BUY THIS AMP!"

Feature:
compared to the other marshall mini amp, the most notable difference is the gain control. this is very helpful in adding extra volume and boost to the sound. however, one feature that i really wish this amp had would be seperate bass and treble controls instead if the single tone control so that you could get more refined tones from this amp.

Quality:
this is an extremely high quality product and it is very handsomely dressed for something under 60 dollars. the battery life is ussualy somewhere around six weeks under everyday usage on the road. i have not experienced any difficulty with this amp over the two years that i have owned it and don't expect it to fail anytime soon. if you are looking for a high quality, good sounding amp, then this is your best bet.

Value:
this amp is a bit on the expensive side, but you will be extremely pleased that you spent an extra ten dollars for this amp. it is deffinatly worth every cent that you are paying.

Desirability:
besides the sound, who could resist having a scaled down full stack on there desk. this amp is definitly more attractive than most of the amps in this price range.

Sound:
overall good sound, however you need to use a distortion pedal to get distortion at low volumes. this amp is extremely loud and durable. i have had mine for over two years and it has held together well compared to my fender mini deluxe. this amp sounds the best with the tone rolled off at medium gain and volume settings because you can access exellent jazzy sounds with the neck pickup, but when you switch to the bridge, the sound changes to a wonderfull bluesy howl.

Support:
nothing has ever gone wrong with this product and i highly doubt anything ever will. as for a warranty, this amp doesn't have one because it doesn't really need one.

Overall:
if this amp ever wears out, i would most likely go and but another marshall mini amp. i would do this because they are simply the best mini amps that you can buy, and i dont think that there is any mini amp out there that can recreate the awesome roar of this beast.
