Product Rating Product Review This amp is exactly what I needed for the small space I have. You get great tone and there are tons of features compared to similar models. Peavey makes durable stuff and this is a well built product. Fast shipping and great service. Thumbs Up!

Product Review I decided to try something different and bought this a few days ago. It has good sound quality and it can be surprisingly loud for its size. Its a real good amp especially for the price.

Your general opinion of this product. First solid state amp I have bought in years. I bought this because my little 5 watt tube amp is a bit loud for bedroom playing. Boy, I was mistaken in thinking this little Peavey was going to be quieter. Product seems solid. We'll see how the chinese craftsmanship holds up. N/A its an amp. Pretty good overall. For me, I tried the various "voicings" in the eq and really have no use for any of them except the vintage voicing. Lead channel is usable, but only in a very small range of the pre gain. Oh well, for $99 you can't be too picky. Folks this baby LOUD LOUD LOUD. Easily louder than my vibro champ. I think you could do a small jazz gig with this amp and have no problem. Don't let the size fool you. I almost wish I had gone smaller, but what the heck...I wanted the three band eq. FWIW, it should have reverb. Only thing I would really change. N/A Looks new...cause it is. Can't tell you yet.

Your general opinion of this product.

QUALITY:
Very high quality. Seems to be very durable.

FEATURES:
This is a basic 2-channel amp, as advertised, so if you want built in fx this isn't for you.

EASE OF USE:
It is simple to dial in the sound you want, just like a classic basic tube amp.

VALUE:
Very nice tone and quality for 120 dollars. Even better if you shop around and find it on sale for 99.99.

SOUND:
Not even considering this is a solid state amp for $119.99, it gives tube tone that I'd say is an honest 80-90% compared side by side with my Fender Blues Jr. Purists may laugh at that, and I agree, the other 10-20% the Blues Jr. delivers makes a big difference. However, factor in the price difference and you get a light, loud, great sounding amp for next to nothing. I bought a pair of them to run in stereo off some Digitech pedals and a Boss GT-8. No sound is out of reach.
