"Super loud, awsome effects.....I love this amp!"

Overall: 4.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
no auto wah, and it can be to loud to play at night. even on volume lvl 1 its loud lol.
Sound
The sound quality is great. Fender deff. has the best clean sound out there. Iv never been a fan of fenders distortion till now, because i play a lot of metal. You can actually play heavy metal on this......a first for fender! But I also really like the tone of the mild distortion. I play a lot of blues and fusion as well, and you can get a nice twangy mildly distorted sound. o ya, 160 watts!!!!! kicK A$$
Features
The DSP effects are awsome. Better than some pedals I own. I really like the quality of the flanger and delays. There are various types of reverb, and they all sound very good, except i dont like the "room" one....It just doesnt do much.
Quality
Great quality. Very road worthy...except for one thing. The cloth grill is a little loose. so be careful of tearing it.
Value
Kinda expensive, but not to horrible...I feel its worth it. The sound quality cant be beat. Iv used crate, marshall, peavey, and even an old gibson amp. The clean channel is amazing (as always for fender) and like i said before, the distortions are real nice this time around.
Manufacturer Support
Never dealt with them, but iv heard good.
The Wow Factor
no auto wah....of course its rare to c that on amps. But when i played it in the store, i decided to buy it within the hour.
