I bought this amp two years ago and I still usa it
it is a 15 watt dual gain non-tube amplifier. it has three band eq and a reverb effect
it does not have a chnnel switch, you hve to adjust the gain knobs for drive tone
it has a headphone jack
I use it at home only
Sound Quality

I am using an american deluxe fat strat and I play rock, the amp has a good clean tone, which reflects the tone of the instrument directly without any tonal alterations.
if I put the volume higher than 7, the sound get distorted and it needs a compression
the distortion of this amp is not very good, it is like a heavy fuzz
because of this I a using an effect processor, and the tone gets much better
this amp is very suitable for use with another preamp or pedals, as I said, it gives the tone of the instrument without any alteration
but still the tones are not very great, just normal

I have taken it to many different places to play and I often leave it open for days, but nothing bad happened yet
I think it is very solid

I've been playing for four years, I use a usa deluxe fat strat with this amp I play anything, but mostly rock. if it was stolen I wouldnt be very sorry since it is nothing very rare. I would buy a better amp
I like the clean sounds of the amp, the reverb is also good, you can play very good jazz with this amp
but the sound gets distorted in high volumes and the drive tone is bad
I wish it had a compression option and a better drive with a footswitch, but I can fill this gap with a pedal
I strongly recommend that you use this amp with a pedal or processor, and you will definiteley need a compression
