MGR/B-Rent « Crate GX-30M »
Published on 01/03/04 at 15:00I ordered this amp off of eBay for $45. I saw it while surfing the wonderful world of eBay. I was here quick and it was a graduation gift from 8th grade. 
I like the styling of it. The clean channel sounds very nice. The foot pedal is a nice handy feature. Its thirty watts with a 12" speaker. Its nice for a practice amp. Has a good reverb sounds and has decent corus too. Good for a beginner!
I don't like the distortion channel. Its has a certain feedback to where when the channel is switched to the distortion, there is a buzzing. It can only get loud to a certain point before it loses the quality of sound it doesn't have.
If you don't have a peddle or the peddle isn't hooked up, the buttons to swtich channels are really tiny and kinda suck ass alot. It doesn't perform as well as it should for being a heavy pain in the ass to carry.
Its built solid. It is open in the back so its not a sealed enclosure. The turny knobs for all of the settings are really easy to use. The GX-30M has a nice handle and a spot in the amp to hold your pedal. Really durable.
For a starting guitarists, its is a great amp. Anything past that, it loses its majesty. Not a great fan, but I guess you get what you pay for. I'm upgrading to a Marshall when I sell my arm or leg, or both.
