"Best amp I have owned in 30years of playing."
I will keep this amp forever. Im done Its all I wanted and more
Sound
Wow I am blown away! i bought it as a backup and cant belive hot tubey it sounds. I compared it over a three week periond against a Fender Blues Jr and A peavey Delta Blues. It beats them both hands down in sound and features, Its Clean channel is beautiful and the overdrive is as effective as an Ibanez Tube Screamer pedal. The other effects are very useful. I have since sold my Blues Jr and will be selling my Peavey. I never realized how noisy they were till I git the Triggerman 60.
Features
The Amp is built to withstand an A- bomb. Its heavy heavy heavy but Its so coll lokking and great sounding its woth it. I wish it came with a footswitch but any dual switch will do. I did order the footswitch that is made for it and that too is very cool looking.
Ease of Use
The amp is a pleasure to use and with the two volume switches and the master switch you can dial in your exact sound I just LOVE this amp
Quality
Amp is a work of art
Value
Peavey Delat Blues 600.00 dollars Fender Blues JR 400.00 dollars Epiphone Triggerman 60 Priceless. I paid 250.00 and I tell you its a steal. If this amp was 500.00 I buy it still.

"WTF ? Are you Retarded? Go and buy this amp now Einstein !!!"
This is the best looking and best sounding nontube I have ever owned.
Sound
I have had this amplifier for three months now, and have no complaints about the sound. It exceeds my expectations.
Features
Same as what others have said "Awesome features for the money". I highly recommend getting the epiphone "two channel" footswitch. Looks very very retro and makes this amplifier a usuable product.
Ease of Use
Are you able to read? Does your opposable thumbs work? Then you can flick a switch and read the labels. No harder than that monkeyboy.
Quality
This is better made than some of my Fenders. No joke Roy !!!
Value
Spend the couple hundred, great value dude.

"I Cant Believe its not butter!"
Looks like I will be leaving it to my kids when I die! It should be vintage by then.
Sound
I can't believe its not butter!(Tube)HAHAHAHA! Sounds really close to a Tube amp. Ive been able to get great clean sounds. The Distortion could use a little bit of bottom end, but dont get me wrong it still sounds good. That is why I gave it a 9. This bad boy keeps up with a full drum set another guitar rig, bass and 2 vocalist cuts thru the mix no problem. This amp is loud and sounds awesome. It also has a Direct line out which I love!
Features
I like the DSP effect. The sounds are very usable and I had to buy the foot petal it did not come with it:( and I had to search a bit to try to track one down but when I got it it made it easier to play live. But once I got it was good to go.
Ease of Use
Its is super easy to use especially if you are sure of the sound you like. But, I guess that is the case with all amps?
Quality
This thing is a tank! Very well built. I have been using it heavily from gigs to practices and it is very well built. No complaints everything is qulity!I have a Line 6 Duoverb just collecting dust because this thing just wont quit and is so much easier to use.
Value
What a deal! If this thing had Gibson stamp on it, instead of Epiphone it would easily command $600+. Thats no joke, this thing is well worth the money. The price is cheap, the product is quality.

N/A I have not had any problems!

"Best Bang for the Buck!"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Excellent amp for the money.
Sound
This amp has a very warm clean sound. Similar to the old tube amps. The overdrive channel is very good as well for most styles of music. It's great for 70's and 80's hard rock, but you'll probably want to get a distortion pedal if you're into thrash metal (somehow I doubt anyone playing metal will be buying a nostalgic looking Epiphone amp anyway).
Features
Great features for the price. The reverb is very good.
Ease of Use
This is a very easy amp to use. Even a monkey can do it.
Quality
This amp appears to be made very well. It's heavy and solid. The quality of wormanship is evident in the details.
Value
This amp is a steal for the price.
Manufacturer Support
Luckily, I have not had to deal with the company for support.
The Wow Factor
This amp looks awesome if you like the retro nostalgic look. I love it.

"GREAT AMP!"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
Great product for the price. I'm glad it doesn't cost more, but it could and no one would know the difference.
Sound
Warm tone. Clean channel is good. You lose some tone when you switch to distortion but still breaks up nicely. delay is great. chorus and flanger are so so. Reverb sounds good.
Features
DI out in rear, two footswitchable channels, headphone jack, effects loop, effects, reverb, and agood distortion sound that can go from bluesy to thrashing. Overall for the money you can't beat it.
Ease of Use
No problem. It's easy to get the sounds you want but it depends on the guitar you use. Even my acoustic sounds pretty good on it.
Quality
Great looks. Built solid
Value
Can't beat it.

"Awesome, awesome amp!!!!!!!!!!"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
Great amp. Should have included a footswitch. You need this amp now. I don't think anything else can compare for the price. I owned a Crate (very briefly!) and the thing buzzed and vibrated like crazy, and didn't have any features superior to this, and this Epiphone has way better sound. You CANNOT go wrong buying this amp.
Sound
Sound is great. Pretty much like everyone says: Clean channel is fantastic, got that real Fender Twin Reverb feel to it. Distortion channel, well... as long as I keep the gain way, way down, it sounds good and crunchy, just like my old Boss OD-1. If you turn the gain up, it gets out of control pretty fast. Maybe good for some, but that's not how I want to sound!
Reverb is great; some of the other effects are actually usable, what do you expect?
Features
Contrary to what some of the reviews imply, I was disappointed to find this amp does NOT, repeat NOT, include an actual footswitch, which is a bummer, and significantly detracts from the 'value' of the product. A Boss FS-6 dual footswitch works great with it, but is rather expensive. Another cheap dual footswitch that I had laying around works with it as well, but doesn't have cool indicator lights like the FS-6. But if they'd just thrown in a cheap dual footswitch, I would have been in love until the end of time.
Haven't tried the DI or other outputs yet, but that's just icing on the cake, ain't it?
Ease of Use
Couldn't be easier to use. I love the chickenhead knobs, you can actually tell where the settings are.
Quality
Feels solid as a rock. Looks great.
Value
Blows away anything else in its price range. Would have been the steal of the century had it included a footswitch, so one point off for that.
Manufacturer Support
I hope I never have to contact Epiphone. Their website is a joke, which gives me a bad feeling...
The Wow Factor
Very, very cool and sexy. The red covering is nicely somewhat darker than the pictures show. It looks really, really awesome next to my Ibanez Artcore AF75T (in Transparent Red, natch).

"Buy One before Epiphone realizes they underpriced it."
This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
This amplifier is better built than most of my Marshall amplifiers.
Sound
Bery good clean channel, has loop, I think the DSP is average but I would use the chorus. Don't like the lead channel.
Features
How many amplifiers for this price has level out and in and an xlr out?
Ease of Use
All controls are well laid out. Very cool looking chicken head knobs
Quality
I cannot find one flaw in the amp. The tolex, knobs, cream piping, inserts are all well made. Personally I like the raised epiphone logo on the front of the amplifier
Value
For the price of a few truck filli ups, you can own this amplifier. Very good prices on line.

Epiphone Triggerman 60 Customer Review
I'll be Satisfied for quite awhile and replacing it is going to be tough but Idon't think I'll find a better amp.
Sound
Some amps when you turn up the volume it distorts and the guitar sounds bad but this amp you can turn it up to your satisfaction and it won't. That's how crystal clear the sound is!!! you hear all the sounds when you play and more. Even though it's like carrying a ton of bricks, it doesn't stop me from bringing it to my friends houses.
(I just need help carrying it).
Features
It's not just an amp, it's like an awsome peice of furniture. I love the chicken head knobs, it makes it more fun to play with.
I have a cheap little micrphone in my closet so I decided to try it out with the amp and it sound pretty decent.
Ease of Use
It is very easy to get great sounds. Just have fun playing with the knobs and you'll get the best of sounds.
Quality
It's built like a tank so it can definitley take heavy beatings.(Though I don't exactly wan't you to try it, just take my word for it).
Value
Well since I got mine used it was pretty cheap for what it's worth. But I don't know why someone would get rid of such an amazing beutiful amp
Manufacturer Support
I haven't dealt with the company so I wouldn't know how friendly or easy to reach they are. That tells you how the quality is of the amp.
The Wow Factor
It has that vintage look witch I love and the retro feeling to it.
