Feature:
This would be a "10" if it came with the footswitch and the reverb wasn't so awful (anything over '2' gets really splashy). You're probably already aware of the included features. The class a/ab knob doesn't really change the sound a lot - it's very subtle - but is more noticable at higher volumes. I'm pleased with the speaker, bit I hear a lot of people are swapping in a vintage 30. I may try this at some point. It's nice that an effects loop is included - try throwing an EQ in there to really get a great sound.
Quality:
I had to tighten a few screws when I got it to eliminate some rattles. As noted elsewhere, the reverb tank is held in by only 2 screws although there is space for 4.
Value:
Again, FOR THE PRICE, you can do no better.
Desirability:
It is a relatively classy looking amp. The knobs feel and look a bit cheap. If you can get past the Peavey Stigma®, it's a cool little amp.
Sound:
Great sound for the price and loud to boot. You know you are playing too loud when the drummer tells you to turn it down a bit!
With the gain around 2 you can back off and sound clean, but then pick harder to dig in a little dirt. If you crank the gain to 10 and engage the boost, you lose most of your definition. The boost has a 'buzzy' quality to it. I find the best sound for me is with the gain at about 6 and the boost off.
Ease of Use:
Very easy to use!
Support:
Haven't had to deal with them.
Overall:
I really, really like this amp. That being said, if I could afford more I would probably have went with something else. You will read this everywhere and I will say it yet again: FOR THE PRICE, this thing is great!
