As an overdriven tube amp, it can put out classic hard-rock crunchy tones as well as metal. Surprisingly loud. I frequently hooked it up to a 12 inch speaker cabinet, creating a mini-stack and it worked well for practice/rehearsal even with a drummer.

    Lots of pros. The only con is the price, since it's vintage amp. Well worth it if you can afford it.
