"I like to play everything from Country to heavey metal. So if you want vesitility, from soft to loud n hard this amp is PRIME!!!"

Sound: This amp sounds sweet when playing songs that don't require ditortion. Balads that need chorus also sound very nice. The reverb on this amp is exelent. The distortion is kind of weak, ok for lite or moderate rock but if you want to play any type of metal I dont use it. To play metal use a good distotion pedal, crank it up and let loos. Volume is great. All features are nice. Best practice amp I,ve had in 26 yrs of playing Feature: A very nice assortment of featuresI use the chorus alot. It is also a very tough little amp .In the three years I've had it she has taken alot of abuse, with no problems. Ease of Use: Setting to different types of music is pretty straight forward. Quality: This amp is rock solid and tough. The Wow Factor: It looks pretty cool. Overall: I will keep this amp untill I go or it blows.

Style of Music: Country to heavy metal

"Nice practice amp."

Sound: This is a nice sounding amp. you can turn the clean channel volume full blast and get a nice crunch. you also get a nice overdrive channel too. i find the best chorus setting, intensity at 8 and speed at 2. It's got the most powerful reverb i've ever heard. unlike most amps, the perfect tone is easy to find, just turn the mid, bass, treble and presence knobs full blast. Feature: Only 2 amps better than this one in my opinion. Marshall and Peavey. It beats the fire out of Crate and Laney and is as good as a Fender amp. Ease of Use: like i said, crank the knobs full blast. Quality: the one problem i have with this amp is durability. I've owned 2 of them and fried the circuitry and blowed speakers in both of them. The first amp the channels are bleeding together, distortion, clean and chorus are together no matter what. The second amp the power pack fell off and had to screw it back on and now the clean channel volume is stuck wide open no matter how you turn it and it sounds like a busted speaker but the overdrive channel is still good. I have to turn the volume up and gain down to get a clean channel now. Prime Amplifiers only last 2 to 4 years. I would suggest getting Celestion v12 or Celestion G12T75 speaker for this amp because you will blow it at high volume. Value: Just make it tougher.
