Feature:
this is one hot tamale! it's got reverb that sounds like it came strait from the 1950's and the color of the tolex, can you say Buddy Holly? If you're a Strat player, you'll love the sparkle and glass-like sound this amp produces. but don't be fooled! there's plenty of grungy, dirty, distortion in there too! just like mom used to make!
Quality:
it's just an awesome amp! everything is perfect, you couldn't ask for anything more! except maybe a 2 x 12 version of the cab to match the head for those times when a 4 x 12 takes up too much space. (Are you guys at Epiphone getting this down?)
Value:
for what this amp is going for, it ranks a 20 out of 10 for value! Why didn't they think this puppy up sooner? It would have saved me the trouble of going through 2 Marshall combos, 2 Fender heads, 1 Mesa Boogie combo, 1 Peavey head, and a whole lot of heartache, (not to mention burning multiple holes in my wallet!)
Desirability:
don't know about sex appeal, but this amp sure does look good. everyone who's seen mine keeps asking if I "custom ordered" it. I almost want to tell them yes, so that they don't run out and get one of their own! I like being the envy of the whole neighhborhood!
Sound:
this amp roxx! It's everything you ever wanted in an amp. There's all that technical stuff in there if you want it, but you're going to love the simple side of it more. that whole plug-in-and-play attitude is exactly what this amp is built for!
Ease of Use:
it's easy to dial in any sound you can come up with. from tube like compression & sag to all out balls to the wall noise. I use it with a Tech21 2 x 12 speaker cab, and it's LOUD! I'd be afraid to see what would happen if I used the 4 x 12 cabinet they make for it!
Support:
never had to call 'em. Don't know how good they really are, hoping I never have to find out!
Overall:
what more can I say? Well I guss I'll mention the effects (might as well!) they're not perfect, but they get the job done, better yet, get your old pedals out of the closet, run them through this amp and get ready to be amazed! Almost anything sounds good through this thing, from a les paul with a phaser, to a strat with a flanger + chorus, to a tele with a wah...it's all good!
