Sound: The range and quality of the reverb settings are superb. The "doubler" and the "inverted wah-wah" are somewhat weak, and a dedicated FX pedal (e.g., a Line 6 PODxT) would be better for some of the other FX, but overall the quality and range of the FX are quite good. The sound of the amp is great. I've played it a number of times using a Stratocaster (Squier) and a Schecter Diamond Series (C-1) plus a PRS, and the warmth, dynamic range, and flexibility of sounds make this an excellent choice for the semi-pro or professional player who does small-to-medium-sized gigs. I also own a Crate GTX212, and this one surpasses the GTX212 in terms of the dynamic range and the "warmth" of its tone. Crate makes a fine amp and for the price it's quite a good value. Quality: There were a few little "dings" on the plastic parts, and the built-in tuner on the top could be a little bigger, but otherwise, the quality is very good. Value: Excellent value is given. Overall: I'm saving my pennies for this unit. The quality, the range of features, and the ease of use make this an excellent choice for the serious musician who isn't tied up with the need for a "prestige" name brand. Why pay more and get less? That's just plain stupid. Why not get an outstanding value that will last and last and give you all the features that any sensible musician could want? That's just plain smart! So get a Crate today!

Sound: this amp kicks and rivels the sound of all tube amps for depth and quality. the effects are great,and the power of such a small unit is amazing easily matching my half stack. Ease of Use: my only drawback is the writing on the controles is small and my eyesight is not so good but thats not the amps falt Value: this amp is the best buy ive found, does it all and does it well
