Feature:
Has a foot switch, but never use it. Works when I did, but I stay on clean.

Quality:
Mine is built like a tank. It takes its bumps and never lets me down. Its solid state, so no worries. Wipe it down every few weeks and it looks great.

Value:
Just get it. You wont regret it. It is surprising loud for a 65 watt amp and can punch through bass and drums. Sound will begin to break- down if you get too loud, but that goes with any audio equip. I use mine for practice and small gigs.

Desirability:
Looks good. Fender quality.

Sound:
Great Fender clean. I dont use the gain much but its ok. I use with Digitech RP and get the sounds I want. Reverb is best left off.

Ease of Use:
Very simple and strait forward. Thats what I liked about it. No frills, no digital effects, thats what stomps and effects are for.

Support:
I will have to say I don't know because it has never let me down. Everything I own is Fender and if there ever is a problem, my local dealer doesnt hesitate to help.

Overall:
I plan on using this amp until it can no longer make noise. If it broke or was stolen, I would replace it right away no question.
