I bought this amp for my son as a practice amp. I got it out when it arrived, played on it for about two hours, put it back in the box and returned it. The amp is noisy, the tone is sub-standard, the quality is poor, and there just isn't much good about the Drive amps. The clean sounds like it's coming out of a 4" paper radio cone. Squeaking and squawking highs, buzzy thin lows. Running my tube overdrive through it was even worse. No frequency separation at all, you may as well be strumming open strings. Crowded, muddy tone with no clarity to be found at any setting. I used a '75 Telecaster Thinline and a Reverend Flatroc to do my evaluation. I ended up buying a Fender Frontman II for about the same price and there is no comparison. I'm not a brand snob. I have also used a Ibanez TBX30 that cost less than this amp and it was fantastic. I won't buy or recomend Drive products again.

This amp is at best an ok amp. You would be better off getting the drive 30w amp without the reverb because I always pick up a radio station when the reverb is turned on. It could be a good begginers amp.

I use it twice a week and have done so for the last few years for band practice and it holds it's own. I can definitely say I've gotten my moneys worth. The sound is not the best quality as you would imagine, but I throw her on clean and everything else at 12 o'clock (even the volume) and plug my pedalboard into it and let them dictate the final result which is nice I think. I've never had to go much above the 50% volume mark, but it starts to humm and hiss and feedback past that mark, but I've never really farted around with the knobs and the reverb is acceptable. I'd do it again if I had to do it all over. For the money I can't imagine you'll get much more. It's a practice amp and in general that's all she'll ever be. Good stuff though.

I got this amp a few months ago, its a pretty good amp other than the fact that sometimes the speaker vibrates against the grill thing or w/e but thats not too much of a problem. Its a good deal, specially since its at a very good price.

I've had this amp for a few months now and it has just recently began to create a horrid sounding buzz when I turn it on. Clean or distortion. I have switched guitars, cables, etc. the only thing that could cause the noise is the amp. God knows what is wrong with it. So mine only lasted me a few months.
