Customer Review Rate and Review this Product: 6 people wrote reviews 12 people rated this item Tanner Hengst from York, Pa US Overall Ranking: Price: Overall: Sound: Quality: Reliability: Action: Finish: Playability: Tone: Subject: Quality sound and Price Quality: just lifting it you can tell its built well. heavy duty and very dependable. Sound: it sounds very much like a soldano. Reliability: i've had this for two weeks and have taken it with me to a few times on the road. quite portable. Overall: i got this amp two weeks ago and it's the best amp you can get for this price. works great with stompboxes/multi-effects. Playability and Feel: Tone: comparable to a deluxe reverb. very responsive treble bass and mids. Finish: this amp looks beautiful. not your usual black, plain amp. Action: easy to set up and get playing! just wait for those tubes to warm up! Skill Level: Intermediate Do you own this product?: yes Date submitted: 1/4/12 MastroDamus from Georgia Overall Ranking: Overall: Sound: Quality: Reliability: Action: Finish: Playability: Tone: Subject: Small Stack With Big Tone Quality: Don't know about dependability yet but the build quality seems very solid and the amp performs well. I am not sure how you could beat this for value in this price range if you want a simple yet powerful all tube amp ... spanks the Class 5 and other simple low wattage amps badly. If you do need a spring reverb tank ... you are SOL with the head. Go with the combo then. Sound: Overall I really like the tone of this amp. I do own several amps. This one is sweet. I am hearing the love child product of a Plexi, Hi-Watt and AC-30 3-way. Breaks up early and has lots of usable gain. I personally never have the gain over 5 or 6 max. I does take pedals well but my advice is to keep the levels down on the input side if you do. My only comment is that while the amp does have a very good usable clean sound it really does start to go "TAZ" very rapidly. That is not a problem for anything other than country and you can work around that. Let's get real ... this amp being designed by Soldano ... did you realy expect it to be a "clean" .. NO .. it is what it is and Old School no BS tone machine. Loud , Fat and very harmonic even which what I assume are junk tubes. This IS and baby Plexi Stack IMHO. The box says, 100% tone ... No B/S - That pretty much covers it ... simple ... brutal tone ... absolutely no frills what so ever. I do use a Boss ME-70 pedal board sparingly. Reliability: Not sure ... I have beat the crap out of it for 3 weeks now and it is just starting to sound sweet. I did make sure the tubes were seated after shipping. Use a vinyl gloves or a rag to keep finger prints off of the tubes though. I just can't imagine Soldano putting his name on cheap junk ... IMHO he has not. Overall: I have have been playing for over 25 years and have and only had this amp for about 2 weeks now but so far I am extremely impressed with it. Yes it is manufactured in China but it is pure rock and has a great big set of b@lls. I have not replaced the tubes with a premium set and will eventually but frankly I'm having fun breaking these Asian puppies in just to see if I can blow them up. Not microphonic yet. Have a set of JJ's waiting. There is a monster in there somewhere ... and it loves to be set free ... even on the low numbers. My only complaint is that the knobs are numbered to "9" ... Excuse Me ??? ... they should be numbered to 11 ... because that is what I am hearing. Not sure what's up with the 3's but amps are to heard and not seen although it ain't ugly. I took the one off the cab and left the one on the head ... sorry guys ... 333 + 333 = 666 ... just TOO evil for me. Mine came with a Blue-lit On / Off toggle switch and not the bubble pilot light. I like that better. Playability and Feel: Sweet little amp suited for practice or gigging small to medium venues. Purist country players may want to stick to Fender and the Tele ... although I caught my Nashville Tele having "relations" with this amp ... Gibson Players ... Good news and bad for you ... there really is not much clean headroom for you guys but if you into peeling wallpaper via your Les Paul ... you are in luck big time. Tone: Expect this amp to sound like a hot little Plexi with ample gain. Can't match Fender for clean tones but blows them away if you are into gain for Classic Rock or even vintage rock with some bottom. No reverb on the head. The combo does have reverb. Keep that in mind. This would certainly not be my first choice if I were a strict country picker or a jazz guy ... although a sharp chicken picker could get quite evil with this little amp with some tasty compression, a single slap back delay and reverb via a POD or whatever your pedal flavor is. The Vibe effect on my ME-70 along with this amp nails the Hendrix tone BTW ... for me anyway. I have owned a Shinai Uni-Vibe and Marshalls. This is a better baby Marshall IMHO. Straight in it is a the bomb too. The amp changes of course according to how hard you kick the 12AX7's and the EL84's ... a killer and proven tube set. I have never heard a bad amp that uses these tubes although I'm sure someone has some junk somewhere ... just not here. Finish: Plug for AMS here ... the brown truck destroyed the cabinet box ( way to go Teamsters ) and the cab had 2 bad gouges in it on the front and side from shipping damage. I though about keeping it anyway to save the hassle but AMS replaced the cabinet instantly and did not even require photos of the shipping damage. I guess UPS bought that one since they picked it back up. Action: Yep ... Action is indeed outside the box ... inside too ... very expressive and impressive little amp for it's size and low wattage. It has plenty of bark and bite as well. Skill Level: Semi-Pro Do you own this product?: Yes Date submitted: 07/10/11 Read all reviews
