iamqman « None better for the price »
Published on 04/23/11 at 15:28For the price there really isn't anything better. This amp sound so good for being a solid state amplifier that it makes you just bring this thing into the studio to record with. The amp has a tremendously usable and sparkly clean channel. Then you go to the overdrive channel for four different distortion voicings.

SOUNDS
What I really love about this amplifier is the ability to plug in your ipod, Mp3 player, or cd player to jam along with your favorite songs. This makes practicing at home so much more fun because it then teaches you to play in time with your favorite bands.
I like playing this amp with a Fender Strat or a Charvel guitar. Since the majority of this amp is based off of high gain channels I like to get a lower to medium bodied wood like ash or alder to gt that sizzling grind that is so familiar with 80's metal rock.
Another cool thing is how good the effects processor is in this amp. The flanger and delays sound superb. They mix quite well with the metal distortions and extreme distortion.
OVERALL OPINION
One thing that I absolutely love about this this amp is the recording output. This enables you to go direct with headphones or run straight into a sound mixer. At new these units come in at around $99 which is a steal of a price.
I would recommend this amp to anyone who needs a solid practice amp and doesn't want to break the budget. The ability to have a tuber and all the effects you want to go along wit a clean and dirty channel makes it an all in one amp.
