Sound: sound is pretty full with ok tone at low volumes but as soon as you get to higher volumes (expecially with high bass eq) you tend to get some pretty major distortion. Its pretty nice distortion but it would be nice to be able to play loudly with a clean sound. Feature: nice and simple eq with all the knobs and sockets labelled clearly. was dead handy when i was just starting out. helped get to grips with what different settings sounded like. Ease of Use: its very easy to use. basically a plug and play situation. great for beginners, you don't want to be faffing about, you just want to get going. Quality: I've had it about 2 years as a begenner/practice amp, the only thing that has ever broken is the tiny blue cover on the high dial on the eq. i'd rely on it as a practice amp. Value: great to start with, ok sound. Manufacturer Support: never dealt with them Overall: this amp has lasted me my first 2 years of bass playing pretty well. worked as a beginner then lasted me as a practice amp when i upgraded. portable, easy to use, reliable, cheap. the sound isn't fantastic but it works well on low volumes. I'd recommend it to bass players just starting out. I wouldn't replace it if it was broken/stolen but only because since using this I have upgraded to an Ashdown EB 12-180.

Sound: Most stupid sound i have ever heard.. sounds like a guitaramp with a bit bass in it. Feature: There are many things you can do with it. Changing the high, mid, bass and use it with effects, active/passive basses Ease of Use: Plug-play, easy.. but it sounds worse without standard properties Quality: Good for guitar players that wants a bit bass in their sound.. when you use it with your bassguitar it sounds more crap than it gives a tone... Value: The price is not that bad.. but too high for it. The Wow Factor: Everyone is telling you, great amp it is amazing. Well, dont believe it.. after a few months it is the most crap product you have ever heard. Overall: I bought it because the price was good and the people in the store told me that is is a good thing. I'll never, never trust people in stores now.

Sound: this product produces the sound from the E-strings very poorly. When the volume is put above 7 and im playing on the E-string the amp cannot make the sound and make a buzzing sound, almost like a im using a distortion pedal. Feature: It has a passive and a active input, that can be useful Quality: The passive input, the one i use 99.99% of the time is very loose. I think it is going to break.

Sound: I've been playing the bass for about four years now and of all of the bass amps ive had this has the best sound for its price. Feature: Very, very good accessories and features. I love the effects loop on it. Quality: This company is one of the best bass amp manufacturer in the world. It is a very well made amp and is very reliable. It makes a great amp for traviling bands. Lasts for about 2 years, which is great for beginner bassists because once the amp wears down, the bassist is ready for a more advanced amp. Value: THIS IS THE BEST BEGINNER AMP YOU CAN GET FOR THIS PRICE. Manufacturer Support: The support was preety good. The Wow Factor: This is a very cool looking amp.

By the time i got a different amp, almost three years after i got this one, nothing at all was broken. Value: Great, great, great value for the cost and is a very good amp for anyone who is just starting bass and is getting there first amp. Manufacturer Support: Support was reasonably good. Overall: Very good amp. I hesitated about buying this amp and another amp when i started, but I'm glad I chose this in the end.
