Music Style: I prefer high energy rock , funk, fusion.
Back to Product Information
Sound: Extremely clear, very responsive, lots of depth. Very nice for recording direct. I use it with a Hartke pro 2100 (I think that's the model #, it's the extra large cabinet) 4 x 10 and an SWR (goliath series) 1 x 18. Alot of times I just use one of these cabinets. I also use it as a direct box / pre-amp for recording. Very nice compressor. I cover alot of styles from 1940's to Zappa, fusion, R&B, Soft/hard rock, Grunge, Reggae, Rap, etc. Feature: Just about all the control you'd ever need. It comes with a footswitch for those rare times when you need the effects. Quality: The SWR made units are excellent. They are now owned by Fender so there may be some design changes afoot. this is a major point to consider. Value: Money means nothing when you buy equipment of this caliber. It is the sound and reliability that counts. Manufacturer Support: Happy to say I haven't needed service. This amp gets heavy use a few times per month. The Wow Factor: Who cares!! I'm using it not looking at it. Overall: I've had alot of pro setups. I'm coming off a Yamaha pre-amp / BGW power amp rig. The SWR sounds better, is easier on my speakers and is about 15 lbs. lighter than my previous rig. I've been using SWR products for many years and have been very happy wih them. My old SWR 4 x 10 and current SWR 1 x 18 (boh goliath series) were used with 2 - 2000 watt RMS Hill amps and they handled it beautifully. I don't play gigs that big any more. I expect to keep this head for many years. If this unit was stolen I'd be crushed as it will sone be irreplaceble. I find it hard to believe that Fender won't mess it up somehow.

Sound: The tube pre sounds absolutely incredible.The most clean punchy tone I've ever experienced. Feature: The overdrive is extremely versatile, the subwave adds a great punch to the bottom end. The eq, well it is an SWR which stands for S**t Works Right!! Ease of Use: Twist & tweak, need I say more? Quality: Rock solid, night after night! Value: You can get more power for less, but the old saying is very true,"You get what you pay for". Manufacturer Support: Haven't needed it.It's been rock solid for over a year now. The Wow Factor: Black & chrome, that is the ultimate combination for great looks! Overall: I don't expect to ever replace this unit unless it was stolen or destroyed in a horrible accident.

Music Style: Rock, Alternative
Back to Product Information
Sound: The sound is very SWR. Full, deep lows. Clear highs. Punchy. A very rich, powerful sound. I play a Fender Precision, and the sound is just perfect. My band plays Indie Rock and I have to compete with two loud guitars and a loud drummer. I have no trouble being heard, and Feature: I love the distortion. You can blend it in with the clean sound to be sure the low end doesn't disappear. I use the limiter all the time to keep my playing even. Quality: No problems whatsoever. Value: It does seem a bit expensive, but I still think it's worth it. Manufacturer Support: The always email me back quickly whenever I have a question. The Wow Factor: It does look very cool with the Goliath Sr I have. The chrome and black is pretty sweet on stage. Overall: I'm not sure I could afford to replace it if it broke, but I am definitely NOT looking for anything else. It meets my needs perfectly, and I'm really glad I bought it.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!
