Published on 06/15/08 at 15:00I play bass in metal bands, on and off for the last 4 years.
Got it at Billy Hydes for $660 (Australian) about 4 years ago.
The built-in, well lit tuner is great, and the footswitch/2 channels is handy as well.
The sound felt very fuzzy and soft, didn't have much luck dialing in any tones I really liked. Power-wise, the poor 100watt combo had trouble keeping up with a huge drum kit.
Good quality, lots of rehearsals and a few gigs, plenty of wear n tear. The only issue was that one time a fuse blew, but it was under warranty and was repaired very quickly.
A good amp for someone on a budget, still trying to do no more than play in the bedroom.
