This Guitar is good for starters, but as you mature as a guitarist, you will outgrow it. The finish on this will eventually chip, and the neck will warp. You’ll always be adjusting the strings, because they buzz like a wasp from hell. I probably wouldn't have bought this guitar if I knew then what I know now. I probably should've saved up for a cheap RG series guitar.

Way overpriced combo

I've had this amp well over a year. I almost sent it back but unfortunately gave it a second chance. The tone is passable at lower volume but loses all character when cranked. The distortion sounds rather fuzzy to my ears and ALL the voicings on this amp seem a bit left of center...not quite right. Price with amp with other combos, including this model WITHOUT the red LED lighting feature, or even without the effects. At the regular price you are just getting raped. Buyer beware on this one....

I purchased the glx212 this week , actually puts out 120 watts at 4ohms , = 60 Im guessing , but with the twin 12's it really is a full sound.. the lead channel does my kind of rhythm - ac/dc , areosmith van halen.. i use a dsp.. but this channel is good enough. Decent volume .. the kicker is ... this bass comes out .. real true ... sonic sort of goodness.. trust crate for value.. and forget it not being purr fect..its real nice!

Ive had this amp for about 2 years now and it has never let me down. Gig after gig, it keeps on going, but i have noticed that with frequent use of the lights sometimes they will flicker and will dim the louder it is, but that doesnt bother me. There really isnt another guitar on the market thats this nice and can beat the price. The only thing im not a fan of on this amp is the open back but it does give a good place to put picks and strings. The tuner is quite handy, but if youre worried about this thing not being loud enough you can just get a cheap crate head and throw that on, this amp is amazing

So after searching for a mid size, mid power amp, I came to Crate and thought for the money it was the best way to go. It's hard to be the bigger names Line 6, Marshall, Fender, but this amp does a great job. It's almost got to much power. My favorite feature by far is the on-board tuner. I didn't think I'd use it very much but now I do all the time. Crate GLX212 looks good and performs ever better. I've had it for about 3 year and it rocks, no one problem!
