Great Jazz and Blues Amp
Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
There are some dodgy/cheap parts- i.e. the ac connection is not top quality nor solidly connected, however his hopefully won't be problem if the amp is treated gently - Don't trip over that power cord!
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
I've only had it a few days, thus far no problems - I have had mixed results with "made in China" products. Here's hoping that Kustom has done better than some others!
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
A clean, no frills, low watt tube amp. (If you don't like the way your guitar sounds, there's "nowhere to hide.") You've gotta get it turned up pretty far to get to the overdrive - even at 4 watts, that's pretty loud in the living room - I occasionally wish the designer had included a master volume control.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Great feel - it has that subtle "chime and bloom" (compression). Bass control lets you lighten up the bass when your neck pickup sounds too "woofy."
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
Through a 10" Eminence Delta Demon, this amp has the old school jazz guitar tone of Charlie Christian, Barney Kessel, Kenny Burrell, Grant Green. When you crank it, you can get to Hubert Sumlin. If you don't know who those guys are, you're probably looking at the wrong amp. (I'm not using any pedals, your mileage may vary.) The tone control frequency could be centered more toward the bass - I'm running it nearly all the way to the left, even though the Delta Demon is a pretty mellow speaker.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Amp looks fine...it's very basic...no nonsense. If you show up to jam with this, you'll look like you "mean business."
Action
How was the action out of the box?
NO extraneous noise. Everything works as described. A whiff of an "electronic-y hot" smell that I hope is just the new circuit "burning in."

Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
nice black paint job. it matches the kustom 1/12 cab I purchased very nicely.
Action
How was the action out of the box?
plugged in smoothly to the wall, turned on and off, no rattles, knobs turned smoothly. good action .
Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
I have only owned it for a month, but have no problems with it, it actually is sounding better the longer I have owned it and turns on every time, let it warm up for a minute and let it rip.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
cant say yet, only a month.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
I did a lot of research before buying this new amp. and sure paid off, does what I wanted, can be very clean to nice breakup. and very loud. I love this amp.

Tone
