This is a solid state amp made some time in the 80s. Clean channel is good though gets a bit stattiky at higher volume. Distortion channel is half decent but I would not use it at a gig, bring pedal. Reverb is great, set it at 5 and feedback will be low and tone is great. puts out 65 watts, good for playing in garage band.

I use any guitar through this, when strat comes my way i'm sure it'll fit fine. Suits metal styles of music excellent, but hit the reverb on and Hendrix style is great too. Clean channel gets rough at about 5. Distortion is alright.

Amp is a bit choppy because of age but no complaints as to durability. Built like a tank. Not worried about it blowing.

Bought used, so no warranty. Never personally dealt with company. Randall/Washburn are respectable companies and customer support can be found on the Internet or at local music store.

I've been playing for 4 years I use a boss Hyper Metal and cry baby through it. sometimes I use a DOD FX processor. Compares Well to a Marshall valvestate 65W. Has less feedback then a Fender But not quite the same sound quality of either Marshall or Fender Amps but just as dependable if in a small club or garage band setting.
