Even though it is only a smaller combo(In my opinion) it blows alot of higher priced amps out of the water.Basic controls treble,mid,bass,volume, master, and probably some of the wettest reverb this side of a twin!There is a direct out for recording(a major plus for home recording),and a weird input jack that when you plug in to it with the reverb up it sounds like the amp is in another house). It is 60 watts powering one 10" speaker.

The amp is pretty versitile but some high gain pedals just sound like crap in it(ie:thrash metal,hyper metal etc.) and get kind of noisy.When slighter overdrive is used you can get a wide pallet of sounds,blues sounds very good played through it.Also a very good ska/swing amp! Pretty versitile for the price.It sounds good with another amp to boost the sound if you play bigger gigs. I use it with an old 80 watt yamaha in stereo through my boss super chorus(A good heavy sound) .

I love this amp but reality has forced me to use a bigger amp with it when I'm playing a pretty big place.Other than that if I lost it it would be like losing a leg, or a hand for that matter!Its like a favorite old pair of shoes it just feels right sometimes.It is solid state so it has never broke on me.

In the 13 years I have been playing I personly feel that for what I paid for it was a bargain and I will never let it go.
