Okay it has two channels which are very different, I've only just got it from a guitar show. Did not get a foot switch with but for the price I can't moan. It has som digital effects which are very nice. I got it because my Valve head just broke again. So I hope this last a bit longer. I play in a pub band so don't need mega power.

Okay I got a Strat and a Epiphone Les paul. The lead channel with the Les Paul is so good its un true. It does the lot from soft blues to gary more to metal. With the strat in the lead channel Hendrix city back of the gain and it sound so warm. The rythem channel is very warm and musical it was a warm tone great for, well anthing.
Wind the volume up on the rythem channel with les paul and it sounds nice and crunchy. I think this amp would suit anyone who plays in a pub covers band because it does the lot.

I've been playing 14 years and play through most types of amps. I tend to sound like me what ever amp I play through but this little beast is great. I bought it from a show and checked out marshall, peavey, carlsbrough, crate, line 6. I also looked at amps that were out of my price range. This Kustom was Bought because it had a good basic tone that is always there. If I lost it for some reason I think I would get another. For the price it kicks the others to bits. If it was priced the same as the others well this would have still won. I used my ears to pick and not any badges,

Bang for your buck, it would be tough to find an amp with as many features as this new Kustom. The shop I get most of my stuff just got these things in and lent me one to play a gig on the weekend. I was very pleases with the different sounds. We play everything from
rock to country and it had the punch for everthing I needed. Had a little trouble getting the effect to turn on but I think it was just a switching problem I had to work out. Needless to say this amp sold itself. I was playing with a Peavey before (a very good amp to) but I find this one much quieter with next to no hum.

With the 8 digital effects this amp has I thought they might be alittle cheesie, but I was very pleased. I used the flanger in a couple of songs and it sounded just fine. I guess the other option is to get something like a GT-3 that has a ton of sounds and only use 8 of them anyway. I really like the chorus/rev, it gave the guitar a very full sound. I was playing a Fender Strat, which can be famous for their hum, but was very pleased. I havn't really cranked it yet and havn't really had to, seems to have lots of power

It is so new I can't really comment on that. I know I had alittle trouble getting the effects to come on. If I turn the amp off and back on again they work just fine with or without the foot peddle.

There is one thing I noticed the first time I picked this amp up and that was how much it weighed. It is light compared to amps the same size. Not sure if that is good or bad, but when you are moving it around from place to place I love it. I have an old tube amp that is a back breaker. I like this more than the Peavey ( just my opinion ) mainly because it has such little hum.
