I own a CA-60D and play a Seagull guitar. They both are great products. When you combine the two the results are KILLER. The features on the amp let you create your own acoustic sound, sometimes making your 6 string sound like a 12 string. Inch for inch/pound for pound you can not beat the value or craftmanship of either one.

User: a customer from msn.com

Style of Music: Blues, folk, finger picking

Location: Louisville Kentucky

Feature:
It comes with a foot switch, for reverb, and chorus

Quality:
solid as a rock, but its hard to see the controls in a dark area

Value:
Good bang for the buck, the only other amp that is a better value is a ultrasonic

Desirability:
It is a good design, I wish the controls were easier to see, and Crate should include a cover for this amp

Sound:
This is a great sounding acoustic amp, very crisp and clear. The chorus and reverb match the amp pretty well, however I have had trouble with feedback in small venues. I play an Ovation Elite, and a Takamine -EG330-C, and they both sound wonderful through this amp, This amp does have some hiss to it at high volume, and it is heavy. If I had to buy again, it would be this, or a ultrasonic

Support:
I have not needed the company, but I have friends that have, and they say that Crate is good to deal with

Overall:
Overall, this is a great piece, I would buy it again, it is real heavy, too heavy for us old folks. Controls are tuff to see, it does have some hiss to it, and Crate needs to offer a cover for it. The Ultasonic amps are about the only amps that I know of that would be as good or better value

Style of Music: rock, folk, alternative, country, jazz

Location: Hawaii

Feature:
the chorus is pretty damn good. The reverb is not strong enough.

Quality:
fit and finish are excellent. Great looking preduct.

Value:
Not worth the retail price, but definitely worth the $400 some places reduce the price to.

Desirability:
it's just practical really.... nothing all that sexy.

Sound:
very nice overall sound. The speakers are a little small and the bottom end suffers because of it. Other than that it's a nice versatile piece of equipment.

Support:
na

Overall:
it suites my needs. No frills, bells, or whistles. Just a good solid product.

I play a semi acoustic cort guitar (french fat jazz guitar), and was looking for a travel amp besides my fender blues deville 4x10'. I think this is the one!!!
i'm really in love with its looks too!
