What would you expect from a practice amp? Two input (high and low), gain, volume, bass, mid, treble, direct out and phones out, right? And this is what you'll find. So what's the matter? This amp is not simply a practice one, believe it or not I succesfully used it in small clubs, with full loaded drums and everything! I wish it had an effect loop, no one can expect to find a built-in reverb on this kind of product, but I really lack the possibilty of adding it.

Sound Quality : 8
I'm using it mainly with an old squire strat. Plaing with all the possibilities (built in tones, pickups and guitar tone) I manage to play live almost everything from acoustic (with light chorus upstream) to Led Zepp, passing through Santana. To me sounds best for blueish solos but lacks something for playing as a second guitar.

Reliability : 10
Perfect. Got it second hand, in 5 years now I had no problem with it.

Customer Support : No Opinion
The best possible ever: not needed at all.

It has only 12 W? It's amazing! The perfect practice amp. You need to learn playing? You want to have fun making noise at home? Just want a handy amp to jam with your friends? It's for you. Of course it's not made for real live playing but if you don't have any other you may manage.

It has 12 watts, features are pretty simple (gain, treble, bass etc.) your tipical features on a practice amp.

Sound Quality : 9
I've only been playing for about 6 months, so I don't know alot about sound. I play with a Mach 1( If any body knows who makes this guitar please let me know, It looks like a Les Paul exactly). The sound is real smooth and the tone is great. It sounds great to me. I give it a 9 because I don't know much about sound.

Reliability : 9
My Dad bought it at a Pawn shop about 6 or 7 years ago. It's still going.

Customer Support : No Opinion
Never dealt with any one.

Overall Rating : 10
Like I said my dad bought this thing 6 or 7 years ago used, and it is still running. I've only been playing for about 6 months but I've heard good guitar sound, and this baby is a great little practice amp.

Well I bought this amp for practising at home, the amp has a very simple design with a volume, gain, bass, mid, and treble control with two inputs for two guitars.

Sound Quality : 9
Well the first time I turned the amp on I was impressed!!! The amp has a very loud and heavy sound. I mean... for a 12watt amp to pump power like that is just unreal. When I first got it I expected it to be a quiet, low bass and crap distortion amp. I bought it for practice and I ended up doing outside gigs with it, well.. with P.A. of course.

Reliability : 10
Ive had it for 3 years, cranked up the gain and volume to full, and had no problems at all.

Customer Support : No Opinion
I havent dealt with the company.

Overall Rating : 8
I have been playing metal for 4 years and through 1 of those years I have used this amp for gigs. I now own a Marshall Valvestate, but I still use the amp for home practice.
