Feature:
It has an effects loop and preamp out. No master which blows.
The footswitch is a nightmare. They set it up really wierd. The crunch and clean channels are basically the same channel. Sometimes when I step on the clean button on the footswitch it spits me over to the lead channel. what's up with that?
Quality:
Looks like it's built ok.
Value:
Honestly, I would stay away and save up some money for something in the 1,500 price range, but for $500 you can make sound.
Desirability:
Nothing special really.
Sound:
The clean is kind of cruddy but it's the best part of the amp. You cannot get a good crunch tone out of this amp with the stock tubes. You will never sound like Angus Young with this amp, sorry (6L6). The high gain sounds mushy and almost like white noise or the snowball fuzz you get when you turn on the tv and there's no channel there. Imagine somebody saying "shhhh!". I does have an OK low-end chomp to it, but for a lead guitar player this amp is definite crap. Notes are undefined and don't sustain all that well unless the gain is WAY up. I play extremely fast, and this amp just can't keep up (like when your computer is slow and you can type faster than it, same idea). I have to slow down to about 180bpm or even 160 just to get distinction between notes.
Ease of Use:
It's easy to use, but hard to get any sounds that I like. Enough said.
Overall:
The moment I played it I wanted to be rid of it.
