Feature:
i wish it was able to be foot switcheable between the channels but overall the features are good the reverb starts making noises that wont go away until you turn it off but other than that the features are great.

Quality:
The amp is very sturdy i can stand on it throw it anything and nothing happens only bad thing is that the knobs can be pulled off pretty easy.

Value:
the price is unbeatable it is a great little practice amp and it soudns great with pedal's and effects ran through it.

Desirability:
it looks great the silver and black just stand out and the vynill on the outside is prettty cut resistent.

Sound:
The Clean Channel is great and the overdrive isnt bad but it is a little muffled

Ease of Use:
it is very easy there is alot of play in the gain and the bass and high and mid are really adjustable you can really hear them change.

Support:
Never had to deal with crate ive never had any problems with the amp.

Overall:
ive had it for a year i give it a nin becuase its not loud enough 15 watts is good for a keep quite dont have your mom yelling at you.but its still loud to enough that you can get people out of ur room. Stop reading this and go buy it already.

Feature:
I agree a footswitch would be nice to change between the channels but you can eliminate that by using external pedal effects/processors. Digitech and Zoom make nice digital processors in a range of prices/complexities. I am using a Digitech RP80 processor with this amp and it sounds great whether its clean, distorted, or any other combo of effects you can imagine. I do, however use a little of the amps built-in reverb to sweeten up the sound of the other effects.

Quality:
This amp seems very sturdily built and is my first (and certainly not my last) Crate amp I have purchased and I am very happy with the overall quality. I also like the open back design of the GTD15R versus this amp because its a convenient place to store an extension cord when you are traveling to and from shows.

Value:
GREAT VALUE!!! I have never heard a 15 watt amp produce this much volume and still sound good. Thank you to Crate for their nice speakers and the 12 inch size was an awesome choice for this amp.

Sound:
I don't actually own this exact amp but what I do have is the GTD15R, which was discontinued when this amp was released. Comparing the two, they are identical in every way except their outer appearance.

Ease of Use:
Really easy. Turn the knobs until you like how it sounds and play.

Support:
no problems with the amp so I haven't had to contact support. Also, the 3 year warranty gives me a little piece of mind as I've owned it a year already with absolutely no issues.

Overall:
I will be satisfied with this amp for some time to come. In fact, I'm considering purchasing a second and using both simultaneously for a richer sound.
