There's only 6 knobs on this amp: two gain controls, treble, middle and
bass and volume control. There's one input jack and headphone jack.
That is about all. It's very simple but pretty good amp for playing
quietly at home. It's cheap and for the money great sounding blues/rock amplifier.
Sound Quality
:
6
I use custom made ASD guitar(probably noone heard of it ) with noname
pickups. Still I am very satisfied with the sound through G10.
Clean sound is a bit too ordinary without characteristic, but if you roll gain controls you get overdriven sound great for playing blues
and vintage rock. It's noisy on extreme gain settings, but i don't use
that cause sound starts breaking up because of high distortion.
You can't play metal with Park G10. Infact any heavy distorted stuff ain't good. You can either use clean sound
( not so good, but you'll get use to it) or mild to heavy overdrive.

This is only for rehearsing at home and nothing more. In that case
no problem with the amp. Mine is five years old and I even think
that the sound is a bit better than at the time I bought it.
Customer Support
:
No Opinion
I can't say anything about support. I think that I'll get rid of it
when something breaks. Or maybe I'll use some electronics experience
cause everything inside is rather simple. This is certainly a category
not to worry about.
Overall Rating
:
4
Overall buy this one only if you need something to full around with
at home till you get something better. But if this is the amp you'll
use for some time, then enjoy what you've got. Try experimenting
with knobs and find some useful sounds. I think there are some.
