Beginner, play modern rock/metal, play when I can.

Bought it at Sam Goody for I think $130. Prior to this amp I have been using a little Kustom 10w, so I wanted something a little more powerful.

Very nice design, and nice looking. The overdrive is very nice. I use it with a Squire and it makes the guitar sound much better, especially for playing heavier stuff. The control knobs and inputs are very nice as well.

The only small probly I have noticed is where the cord connects to the back of the unit. Its a removable cord, and I've noticed a few times my cord came a little loose. Not a huge deal though. Also, a footswitch would have been nice as well.

Nice construction. Pretty heavy duty and beautiful classic look. The only small drawback I mentioned is the cord connection, but I doubt this is an issue on all the models.

This amp is great for a beginner or practice amp, especially someone with a cheaper guitar. It will give you great sound and gets pretty loud. This might even be suitable for small gigs, and house parties, etc. This is a great value especially for carrying the Fender name.
