Your general opinion of this product.
Anyone that reviews this product in a "poor" light either bought a "rare lemon" or is an idiot. I realize that even the best companies can have the rare misfortune of releasing a product with a defect that was missed by quality control. For those few, I feel sorry for you! Everyone else should love this amp!
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?

Not the best, But not the worst by any means.

Mine has problems. Within a year of MY getting it the filter caps busted. They put cheaper filter caps in these. New ones should last at least 10 years. On getting it back from the shop I think the techs screwed the pooch so I won't blame my current problems on the amp. Long story short. Not totally reliable

Your general opinion of this product.
Overall it is very good, it is very versatile, especially with pedals. Nice clean tone for sure. But kinda heavy to carry around.

It is 50lbs heavy amp, pretty heavy to carry around.

Review of clean sound

Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
It's well put together. I'd have liked the steel corner hardware for added protection but again, so far so good.

Your general opinion of this product.
Looks and sounds good. I saw several complaints about the linear taper volume pot causing difficulty in dialing in low volumes. The second input jack is attenuated 6 db. I use it, set the volume at 2 1/2 and use my guitar volume from there. I can whisper or wake up the wife.

Controls in back took some getting used to.
Tone

At low volumes with humbuckers and a carpeted room it can get a little bassy. I usually have the bass on 0 and the mid 2-3. In larger areas (garage for ex.) all that goes away.
Finish

I wouldn't paint the tolex.
