A bit tricky at first to get a decent sound.You cant just turn everything to 10.The manual is very helpful.

My guitar is an Fender American Strat double humbucker.The amp is quiet as a mouse.I use a distortion pedal through the clean channel for the hard rockin stuff and use the gain channel set at 3 for the lighter stuff.I played Marshalls,Fenders for 24 years,and heard a local band and the guitar player was using one and i had to get one,thankyou,Ebay.We play anything from the Beatles to GnR and this amp does it all.The Marshall was your typical rock sounding amp the Mesa DC 5 was a versitial sound machine.Sold the Marshall Combo and i dont miss it.I use Mesa 6L6's and JJ's for preamps,CRUNCHY!
