"GREAT ACOUSTIC GUITAR AND VOCAL AMP."
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
When I bought this I tried every acoustic amp there was at the time in this price range and more. Now acoustic amps have improved greatly. But my amp is $1000. This added to it is awesome.
Sound
I was looking for a reasonably priced acoustic guitar amp and ended up buying one of these. Why not? Four channels with two ten inch speaker cabinets. Very nice acoustic sound compared to any small acoustic amp. I also sometimes plug my main acoustic amp into it and it really widens the sound NICE.
Features
It has reverb. It ain't great but its something. Plus effects loop if you need more.
Ease of Use
Yes the knobs are very hard to see what they are. Need a flashlight for sure. Other than that once you're set up all is fine.
Quality
Quality is fine. I've had mine several years with casual use. I added simple hinged handles to each component.
Value
I rotate gear at an alarming rate. Bang for the buck this little PA is a good deal.
Manufacturer Support
Have no idea.
The Wow Factor
Sex appeal? A pretty young lady came up and asked me to turn down.

Features
Its pretty bare bones but does the job and does it well for the money
Ease of Use
Simple as hell plug in and sing away personal touch will bring out the tone, simple simple!
Quality
This will take a licking and keep on ticking well made, mine looks like hell but still works well thats why I am buying a second one

"excellent!"
Verified Customer

As long as i own it i will wear it out to the ground...i bought an audio choice blem c100a and wasn't happy with it and bought this system and i'm very satisfied with it
Sound
This system has an excellent sound to it and the reverb is awesome. My acoustic guitar has an excellent crisp tone to it and if you add a little reverb it just adds to the package. I can turn the volume up as high as I want and not get any feedback. The vocals sound very clear and very professional when using a mic.
Features
The reverb and main adjustment features are great, however you can't read the labels for the knobs so you have to guess what knob does what or add your own labels.
Ease of Use
This system is easy to use and you can adjust the levels on the channels or the mains and get that just right sound you are looking for but you can't read the labels.
Quality
This system is excellent quality for the price and is perfect for personal use or in small gigs, which is exactly what I was looking for.
Value
This item is worth the price!
Manufacturer Support
The company took care to pack this thing well and believe you me i did a very thorough job at inspecting it upon arrival. Everything was in excellent condition and this item was even shipped ground.
The Wow Factor
Very appealing and attractive and i could make good music without it but i'm looking for the best not just the good and this system does that, but you can't read the labels

"For about $200, you get one heck of a sweet PA system that won't crap out and has great sound!"
For 2 guys playing Beatles, Seals & Croft, etc... without a drummer, this is a great set up for small venues and practicing. I highly recommend it!
Sound
For the cost, I would rate this an 11. You get what you pay for plus more! True, it has a hard time competing with a drummer, but other then that the sound quality is great.
Features
Here again, for the cost, I would rate this an 11. The reverb is very good, good control of tone and the speakers sound great and include pole holes for gigging.
Quality
Have taken to several small gigs and it's been holding up just fine!
Value
Why don't they have an 11!
Manufacturer Support
It's Fender, but I've never actually needed any support so I think that No support needed rates a 10!
The Wow Factor
It's light, easy to use and sounds great! Too bad it doesn't have 600 watts!

"Good little PA"
I got one of these for free actually. Found it by the trash with two broken speakers. Owner must have thought the whole thing was trash. I bought this and hooked it up to my 100W monitors and this little 80W PA head is pretty good. Nice and loud. If you get better speakers than the ones it comes with (I assume they're bad since they were blown) and hook it up to some nice 100W peaveys it's not bad. Loud enough for cutting through the mix with a Deathcore band rehearsing in a 16x14 foot band room.

"read this review"
good overall... i'll replace it as soon as i can just because i want something alot bigger and with more channels, its a good beginner pa system
Sound
it has an interesting tone... i personally like it alot and i play metal. It has a little bit of distortion, which might affect some people, but its so little, you can barely notice. I actually think it sounds better. The only thing I dont like about it is that you can't plug more than 2 guitars into it without it sounding terrible. I dont think its really meant to have more than 2 guitars though, i use the other channels for mics only. Gets loud... but not as loud as a halfstack.
Features
Not too many features... im not impressed
Ease of Use
super easy to use
Quality
it will last for a while, and its made well
Value
worth the money... but dont get it if u have a drummer. If its just you and a microphone, this is for u
Manufacturer Support
dont know

Squier 4 Compact PA Customer Review
I have bigger equipment and I still use this one for practice.
Sound
This system is great. My brother and I both use the same set up and both of us scream as well. Great for practice. The echo is easy to get rid of if you know what you are doing. If you are screaming or even singing the echo if you have on sounds great for live or even practice. Amongthedying.com
Quality
It has lasted over 3 years now and holds the same great sound.
Value
I paid full price for and would do it again.
Manufacturer Support
Haven't talked to anyone bought it at guitar center in New Orleans

"decent"
Sound
good sound for the price, but cant hear it well over drums, which makes it so that you cant really use it in even a 3 piece band.

"Squire 4 works for me"
I do like my Fender PA system. Haven't experienced anything else so can't compare. It does everything I need it to do with excellent sound output and with major volume capabilties. I am not a pro but am a happy customer
Sound
Sounds great and rocks the house (has major volume available).
Features
Would help it had a brighter power on light. I have left it on by mistake a couple fo times.
Quality
So far no misses and am pleased with how it is holding up.
Value
Price was right.
Manufacturer Support
Have not had any issues needing support.
The Wow Factor
It fit the bill.
