Quality
Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable?
i truly can't say enough about this amp. the effects are a dream..and the way that they integrate DOES NOT affect the tonality of the tube. doesn't sound processed or harsh or digitally distorted.
Reliability
How has it stood up over time?
great...been dropped from 5 feet..kicked around.. not a scratch
General
Your general opinion of this product.
simpy awesome
Playability and Feel
How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?
get this amp..at this price! worth every penny. i'd get my second if i could afford it right now. this is the real deal folks...NO line 6 bull here. this is ALL tube..and that means little if it sounds awful.
it's got amazing dynamics. put it on crunch, put some gain on, play softly for clean and play rougher for some kick.
Tone
Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin?
you need this amp..and as far as volume..anyone should know that a quality all tube amp rated 50 watts is WAAAAYYY more than is needed.
the only thing i wish was that they had a 25 watt model or even a 15 watt model or maybe a powersoak switch of some kind.
just love it and if you don't get one, then you can look forward to many, many years of awful and expensive experimentation..this amp simply does it all VERY perfectly.
Finish
How did the stain or paint job look?
i had marshall, soldano, matchless, all kinds of very high priced boutique all tube amps. they all sounded great, but they are all ONE TRICK PONIES. that is, if you need several sounds, you need 3 to 4 $4000 amps! no way!
Action
How was the action out of the box?
ok-- i've played virtually every amp i could find, nothing fit the parameters of what i wanted until this amp.
