For now this amp feels and look HIGH quality forget the Marshalls, forget the Fenders, PEAVY beats all of them.

I got it a Month ago and i seems built like a tank i`ve also had a Peavy Bandit for like about 4 years and it still works like new so maybe the ValveKing will last for ever.

This amp is the best you can nearly get any sound...nearly.

Has a plain look to it but looks real nice.

Sound real good but i'm planing to change the speakers to some Eminence Governors.....or maybe NOT because once the VK speakers brake in they sound pretty good..... ADD casters they will help you because the amp is like 45 pounds.

I gave it a 4 here because I played mine for 6 days and a tube blew out and caused a short. But considering all the shipping bumps and such, and the inherent semi-delicacy of vacuum tubes, I was not surprised.

Your general opinion of this product.
I am very pleased with this amp overall, and would buy another if needed.

This is a HEAVY amplifier for an old road house bum like me to haul around. I installed a set of Ernie ball pop-out casters on it before I even turned it on.

Tone is so subjective, but you can pull almost anything out of this amp, from sweet Fender-like clean to down and dirty grunge. I found the texture control on the back to be very useful for dialing in a good tube tone. The dirty channel is not as bluesy as I like but I simply added a tube screamer and can get very good sounds from it.

The fit of the tolex could be a little better, but all in all good.
