exellent little practice amp, I bought it new on a whim (after pawn shop searching) I needed a little amp for my computer room, and this is it!
as soon as plugged it in at the store, I was impressed with power that came out of this 10 watt thing, and it sounded good, even the overdrive
was decent(after tweeking the eq of course!)...I have a Randall RH200 halfstack that I leave at practice,(who wants to haul around all that stuff without a roadie) so obviously I needed somethin' for the house...
anyway,the dist. is not that brutal, but has a lot of "personality" I guess, I play mostly metalcore and shredy thrashy stuff, so I hook my pedal board to it and BAM! sounds pretty damn good for only being 10 watts! and it's quiet, I tried both my esp viper w/emg 81's and my Ibanez ax220 quilt top with stock pups, and both sound good!

it's solid state, so yeah, it should be dependable...right?
it seems to be built well, nuthin' loose...I would never ever gig with this unless it's at a nursing home(ha ha)

Overall Rating

I've been playing for over 15 yrs. and I have a older Randall RH200 halfstack that effin' rules! but this little amp rules in it's own little cute sortta way,(ya gota see that teeny celestion speaker, it's so "cute" I had to buy it!) and it does look great, kinda retro...nice
check out the other dyna gain (DG) series, good stuff so far...
oh yeah, if it lost or stolen I would save up and get a Roland cube 30, lots of features, but the price I paid for this amp, it's a bargain!
