Subject:Best acoustic amp I've ever heard
Quality: Very sturdy, built to last
Reliability: Everything as worked fine. Use it several times a week for almost a year now.
Overall: Would not buy any other amp for acoustic guitar after hearing this one. Heard someone else use it in a band, seperating vocals through PA, and acoustic through this. Rocks!
Playability and Feel: It works like any other amp.
Tone: You can tell these guys made bass amps. Gives you all the bass you would ever need.
Finish: Looks great
Action: Took a little while to get the sound dialed in, like any amp.
Skill Level: Intermediate
