whoa.... hang on. This is a great little amp for what it is. Bring down the treb all the way and the mid and you can get some tone out of it. I have had my G-10 for over 15 years and is built like a $%^& brick house. I have Marshalls from 1968-1978 , a Hiwatt custom 50 combo circa 1978 as well as many silver face fenders and this little G-10 I do respect highly...

It is a great practise amp as well as a great amp to use a mic on at golf outings. Ask my Mom.

Old cheap Crate amp. 2 channel, 3 equalizer, gain, headphone, lineout, master volume. Practice at best. I use it as minimal as possible, great to have but that's it, very basic.

Sound Quality : 4
It's an amp, what else can i say for something so small. It's rather quiet, for personal use only. Distortion is decent and the clean is excellent for what it is. I play a Takamine acoustic and Johnson JS-800 electric. I also use of a high quality Peavey amp.

Reliability : 9
This thing is indestructable, can be dropped down stairs and all that and still work, reliablility is it's shining feature.

A personal amp, nothing more. If not sure the guitar is for you this is perfect to start out on. It's cheap but still can last forever despite the misuse.

Volume, mid, bas treb, headphone jack, footswitch, and extention out.

Sound Quality : 6
The clean is there, but not at any serious volume. This is a practice amp, no doubt about it. The distortion is pretty sweet for a practice amp, really organic, but i would still recomend a peday or something because it is nothing to be proud of. I like it alot more then my friends old peavy bandit.

Reliability : 9
This thing is built like a tank. You wouldn't think a box this little would be so heavy. Half inch thick plywood for the cabinet, and a really thick covering. You aint gonna ding this baby up!

Solid state, 10 Watt, 8in Speaker, 2 Channels, 3 band Eq. Effects Loop, FootSwitchable channel switching, Headphone Jack, Line Out. The only thing missing is reverb.

Sound Quality : 7
The clean channel is O.K. not very loud however. You wouldn't be able to use it for jamming with drums. the distortion channel, uses a "magic" 4558 chip for overdrive, But you can only change the level, not the amount of gain. 1 trick pony overdrive/distortion.

Reliability : 9
I just recently had to resolder the input jack, After 10+ years. The pots are kinda scratchy by now as well... Nothing unexpected for the dust the thing has sucked in after 10+ years. It's only a practice amp therefore.........what backup

Customer Support : No Opinion
don't know

Overall Rating : 7
A decent practice amp.....I wouldn't pay more than 40-50$ for one these days. Not very loud, not great distortion.....Would be great for a beginner and not much else...
