Subject:HOLY S#@%
Quality: this amp has been flawless for 4 months that i have had it and i assume it wont break down any time soon.
Sound: MARSHALL MARSHALL MARSHALL!! the tone nails almost any punk or alternative guitar tone i throw at it, and did i mention its INSANELY loud?!
Reliability: ive had this for about 4 months and it hasn't done any stuff that people say bugeras are known to do reliability wise.
Overall: this is the best amp ive personally owned.
Playability and Feel: the sound screams marshall all day long. just for test i tried to get billie joe armstrongs guitar tone and i nailed it without even trying.
Tone: the tone is perfect for any punk and alternative rock. and metal it can definatly do. definatly for heavier styles.
Finish: the black tolex and gold panel is dang fine, kind of turns me on. haha lol
Action: the amp sounded like a dream out of the box. it sounds just like a marshall.

Subject:Awesome tone...when it works
Quality: Metal input jacks, plastic knobs (like everyone else) solid construction...but it keeps shutting down...terrible.
Sound: Perfect copy of the Marshall JCM900
Reliability: Not good AT ALL. I played it 5 times and 4 of those times I got a distorted squeeling sound for 5 seconds then the channels shut off. It had power and the tubes were still glowing, but no sound. Turn it off and back on, 10 minutes later....same thing. I only had it a couple of weeks and had to return it. I almost didn't, hoping I could get it fixed permanently...I liked the tone that much. So much for inexpensive, Chinese constructed equipment. Not again.
Overall: This amp had EXACTLY the tone I've been looking for. I maxed out the gain on the clean channel and got great rock rhythm and clean when I rolled the guitar volume back. The lead channel was killer for rock riffs and solos. Not for metal heads.
Playability and Feel: n/a
Tone: Marshall JCM900
Finish: Looks pretty cool.
Action: n/a
Skill Level: Semi-Pro
Do you own this product?: Returned for refund
