It's a keeper.
Sound
For an inexpensive (got it for under $200) amp, this unit is ideal for small bars and solo/duo acts.
Features
Comes with a foot pedal. Would like to have an external speaker/monitor output jack, but can get along without it. Also would like to have another 1/4-inch input for mic and XLR input for guitar, just in case.
Ease of Use
Use is intuitive, but the actual sound effects take some fiddling to figure out. But that's what practice is for.
Quality
Appears very well made, solid, good professional appearance, solid sound. Actually would like a little more power, but that's why they make bigger, higher wattage amps. This is fine for small to medium size venues.
Value
A good value.
Manufacturer Support
No contact with company, but the amp appears very well made. Use is pretty intuitive, so no need to call for detailed instruction.
The Wow Factor
Very good, compact, decent weight and good variety of sound effects plus power.
