Clean Power to spare
Quality:
Best made of good Quality materials.
Sound:
The sound is Clean and full. Bass notes thump fat and loud. The gain in the distortion is ok for Jazz but not good enough for Rock/Metal. I used a Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer on ch1 and 2 with the best sounding distortion ever. I have owned Pevey 5150, Marshall TLS200,Musicman 65,and others and Love this amp better than those. This is the amp I have been searching for!
Reliability:
Only had it 1 week,no problems.
Overall:
Clean,well built, Room for the DIY amp modifier. Good looks and layout. Only wish it came with the foot switch.
Playability and Feel:
Easy use of the controls. Feels smooth and solid.
Tone:
Fat bottom end,earth shaking. Sreamming highs, smooth mid range.
Finish:
Finish is good looking.
Action:
Easy out of the box,Fast to set up.
Skill Level:
Intermediate

Epipihone = Cheap... I think not!
Quality:
This is a very reliable, solid, well built amp with a lot to offer for today's gigging musician. I have this head and a matching cab. The cab is not the strong suite of this duo. Mine is setting pretty on top of a vintage bassman cab. But the head has excellent clean, crunch, and full on face melting distortion. I run mine with no pedals and have no problems getting all the tones I need in a gig. but as a wrap, this is an amp with a lot of features made available to the ones that cannot afford Marshall, Orange, Mesa, ect valve amps. all in all a great head.
Reliability:
I have had mine since they came out and have not had one problem with it yet. just a really reliable "built like a tank" amp
Overall:
A well made product for the middle class jammer or maybe your first tube amp. I would compare it to without hesitation against lower and middle class Marshall products
Playability and Feel:
This is a very nice sounding amp and is most tweakable. I can get splanky country tones all the way to early Metalica stuff and anything in between.
Tone:
Tone is like If Jim Marshall was 20 something again today and in his garage replicating bassman's
Finish:
great black tolex covering although the logo tends to fall off.
Action:
great sounding out of the box, but made better with groove tubes.
