this amp was made in 2008, bought it for $200 brand new. its a solid state 30 watt practice amplifier.
i play mostly rock and metal, dream theater, metallica, a lil bit clapton and some classic rock. it suits me well. i can easily get the tone i've always wanted.
it has 2 channels, clean and distortion, an equaliser with mid level plus reverb. the mid level does helps a lot for me getting the right tone. another good thing about this amp is it also has a footswitch input, allow me to switch between channels, bad thing is, footswitch is available separately.
i only use this amp for bedroom practice. i never tend to use it for gig or anything else, because i dont think it can handle it.

i use my ibanez RG 7 strings with stock pickups, tuned a step down. the clean sound of this amp is very nice, for a practise amp. for distortion, ok for me, i can easlily get any tone from blues to metal. i didnt expect anything much for a $200 amplifier.

i've been playing on and off for 8 years. i use to own a roland cube-15, and line6 POD 2.0. sold em both when i was thinking of stop playing guitar, and to be honest, i regret i did it.
bought this amp for me to pickup where i left off. i've thinking of getting either a mesa boogie express 25W or a marshall DSL 401. so this amp is basically for me to play around while waiting saving some money for the real thing.
this amp is basically just a practice amp, for those who more to a bedroom guitar player. for a low volume, this amp rocks.
