Amazing Amp

I've been in the market to replace my line 6 spider 3 (don't ever get this if you have any sense of tonal preference), and I recently found this amp on musician's friend. I went into a local music store and luckily saw it there used. This thing is amazing, one of the best clean tones I've ever heard, and the exacty tpye of drive my band has been searching for. This thing is very loud, barely quiet enought at the lowest volume for in home playing. Sounds amazing, and isn't too huge for the sound.

A Professional Rig

I got REALLY lucky. I found an older American made unit for a ridiculous bargain. But this amp is still worth its new price. It's fully featured, loud enough for most gigs. For big venues, the sound tech will mic your amp either way. What blows me away about this amp is that it can acheive a warm, saturated tone at REALLY low volumes, which is great for home and for recording. The fidelity is amazing and there's no hum. I use pedals for heavy distortions and other effects, but the reverb and drive/more drive are great quality and certainly enough effects for a gig. Sometimes I leave my pedal board at home. It's an affordable professional amp suitable for most styles. You won't go wrong with it.

My clean little-big baby.

Well, I bought this amp one year ago at a pwan shop for $249.99 And she has never let me down. I play various types of music and she suits all of them fine. Weather High or Low tones, she kills them all with a beautiful style and sound! I have one complaint about this Amp, when I bought it, she was perfect, nothing wrong atall, but one year later the input jack has come loose and wont tighten again. A little problem I can easily get past. Overall, I love this Amp!

I had this amp 3 years. I guess I have 6 years playing time. hundreds of gigs. needless to say, I like everything about it except the output transformer went out after about 50 gigs things happen. Still I would not part with baby. I play clean all the time or close to it.buy it if you like clean you'll never regret it.

Awesome amp for anything
Posted by Charvel1124 from Long island New York on Aug 16, 2009
Experience w/product: I own it
Reviewer's Background: Hobbyist for now
Reviewer's Play Style: Metal, Neo Classical, some Blues
Now, as a metal player i was a little skeptical of how this would sound for what i do, but i knew that i loved the AMAZING clean channel, with excellent response time as well as the fact that it picks up every nuance in your playing. I asked the store clerk, who i happen to be decent friends with as i shop there alot to plug in my pedal, it SCREAMED and didnt lose any dynamics!.. an excellent amp choice for the price, the hot rod deville is a little better im willing to admit, but the electronics are the same, its just a matter of speaker config so you get a small amount more clarity with the devillet ( my friend has one) but overall this amp can be used for any style of music with small external modifications like pedals, AMAZING on board spring reverb as well. overall a great foundation for an amp, if you want to get real heavy, try a pedal like a boss MT-2, if you want a regular overdrive, its built right in and sounds amazing, couldn't be more happy..
