The amp has (2) 12ax7 preamp tubes (2) el-84 power tubes and a 5u4 rectifier tube. It's rated at 18 watts. It has 4 10" mojotone speakers, has volume, treble, bass, on/off, rest,low gain input and high gain input. On the rear it has slave output and fx in and out. The FX loop is hard to get to and offers no mix control(you have to do it with your outboard gear's mix or level adjustments. that would be the amps only drawback.
Sound Quality
:
10
I play country with a Tele or Asat. the amp is really tight on the clean channel (about 7 before it breaks up) which is really nice for chicken picking. the low end response is thick but with a lot of clarity. for 18 watts its about as loud as you'd ever need almost too loud for smaller club gigs. the high gain input is blues heaven (breaks up on about 3). the sound is very creamy of glassy low end still retains good clarity (even on the neck p/u)
Reliability
:
10
I've had the amp for almost a year and gig on a regular basis and have had no reliability problems at all.

I would definitely replace this amp if something happened. I think Budda has a really top notch product for the most part. I would like to see the jacks for the FX loop a little easier to access and a control would be a nice addition. All in all very well made product thats as good if not better than some of the other amps priced $500 to $1000 more.
