Well this amp is just a basic amp so it only include Volume, Master, Treble, Middle, Bass and a Headphone jack. Talk about power this amp have NO WAY of out power a drum set. I think its output is around 20 watts, but is good enought for any practice amps. So I wouldn't be expecting this amp to feature any effects loops and stuff like that. The sound is very warm which is great for any soft music but not really buit for rock or any others.

I use a Humbucker which came with my first guitar RG20 Ibanez. The distortion on this amp doesn't really work out that well I would say its not heavy enough!! If u place this amp in a 3 Metres by 3 metres room it can sound like a 50 watt amp in a 50 Metres by 50 Metres area so this is a no no in a band situation cause I curently own a 180 watt amp which if you turn the volume up to 3/10 it will out power it already so that explains the power. I play mostly rock but I mean I only use this to practice so I think its enough for me. It creates quite a sweet tone with the treble on full while there is not enough bass going on. Is very clean though when the volume is way up.

I have used this for like half year but I reckon this is a good practice amp for any starters out there. But if its lost or stolen I would definitly buy a higher power one.
