Little bitty Powerhouse!
Darnstrat from Terre Haute, IN, USA
Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
Quality is okay. Could be a lot better.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
Okay. I replaced a volume control, and the faceplate is really cheap and cheesy. The circuit board is not the best, but there are mod kits out there that will allow for point-point wiring and somewhat better tone and build.

Your general opinion of this product.
For anyone who wants Fender tube tone that's loud enough to play clubs and for the studio, this is a great amp.
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
Very light. Easy to cart around.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
Again, strats, tele's, and ES 335's sound great through it.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
Standard black Fender tolex. Not bad at all.
