Great Amp but Quality Problems
Posted by Redland Fats from Tulsa, Oklahoma on Aug 31, 2008
Experience w/product: I own it
Reviewer's Background: Active Hobbyist
Reviewer's Play Style: Easy Blues
I have owned this amp for nearly a year now and it has a lot to recommend it. It is a LOUD little amp with miles and miles of bass. I have never turned it above three or so and it still has enough volume to shake things in our small house and probably the neighbor's as well. The sound is smooth, sparkling, smokey when you want it and perfect for my easy blues style. It is also a full two channel amp with independent volume controls for each channel so I can use a harp mic or an audio mic through the same amp. And, it is actually a good looking amp as amps go. It has been sitting under a table in my living room for a year and wife never complained.

Unfortunately, a few days ago, it began sporadically losing volume, the volume moving up and down of its own accord. Then, the tone began suffering as well and it would break up into distortion at even miminal volume settings. I took it to my local warranty repair station and was told that they have seen this problem in this amp before and that it was not unusual. That's a pity. This a great amp for folks like me who need one box that will handle a guitar and a mic and is loud enough for small to medium room gigs if necessary. Hope they get it fixed permanently. I like the amp.

Surprisingly Good
Posted by Flammang Picker from Iowa on Jan 10, 2008
Experience w/product: I have used it
Reviewer's Background: 40 year guitar addict
Reviewer's Play Style: Acoustic fingerstyle
I borrowed this amp from a friend for two performances last summer, playing a hand-built grand concert sized acoustic with a Macintosh feather pickup. Amazingly good sound, simple to use, very easy to carry around. Worked well in a quiet room, although I'd probably want more power in a noisier venue. I rated it a little lower for features because it has few of them . . . that could be a big advantage, as well, for its simplicity. Great amp for the price. Why pay more?

Great Amp

This is truly a great amp. The price can't be beat, and it sounds great. It gets very loud with the combined volume of amp and guitar, and it proveides a quality acoustic sound. I use it with my Takamine all the time, and it just sings. Overall, a great amp.
