SOUNDS
This amp is such a joy to play. Such a clean chimey tone that leaves such an impression on you that you crave the guitar even more. It has two channels and no one of them isn't a dirty channel. The second channel is for the vibrato or tremelo sounds. So you'll get that wavy sound from the speakers. Just listen to the some from Creadence Clearwater Revival called The Midnight Special. In the opening is basically this sound. Not sure if they used this amp...most likely they did because it is very clean and chimey.
OVERALL OPINION
This amp is a bit on the high side for combo in my opinion. At new these amps come in at around $1400. You can actually pick one up from the 60's or 70's for about half that price. If you want a new unplayed one then this is your ticket.
I would recommend this amp to an guitar player who likes collection gear or love the tone of the Fender clean amp. This is a staple in any guitar player's arsenal.
