Sound Quality

SETUP TESTED ON: Epiphone Les Paul Standard -> direct
CLEAN: Quite nice and clear. Quite warm when bass is set on guitar.
GAIN: Definetly nothing for the metal enthusiast. This gain seems more for a rock'n'roll kind of sound then power crunch metal. I turned to the BOSS MT-2 over clean which when tuned right does the job and sounds great with this amp, however, as the volume goes up past half way, the quality tend to drop.

Definetly not for serious gigging or band practice but this amp is a great practice amp and gets quite loud for such an amp. It is quite versatile, but I get the feeling that it leans more towards rock/metal (forget the inbuilt gain feature though). If you want a room practice amp, this is a great option! Beats more then most of amps alike and definetly has power. If you want more, then Hughes und Kettner can also provide quality with their bigger amps.
