• This is solid state?

  
  As reviewed by JONATHAN SMIRNOFF on 12/20/2012

  Bought a Marshall MG100HCFX because I needed a solid state that I could gig with. My tube amps were failing me too often and I needed reliability. Took the MG home, played it a couple days and was not happy. Did more research and found the Acoustic Lead Series Head. People were speaking very highly of it so I went to the store and plugged it in. Within a minute of playing I overheard one of the salesmen asking another if it was a tube amp. The answer is no, this is solid state, but you would not know that by listening. It has such a warm, round and full clean tone. The stock overdrive is pretty nice too. I've yet to plug my full pedal board in yet, but right out of the box I am very pleased. Not to mention this head costs significantly less than the MG. If you're looking for a great solid state, this is it. Even if you're not looking for solid state, check this one out. Worth every penny and then some. Acoustic got it right.

  I really like this amp.Better than I expected,But im an Acoustic amp fan from way back so I had to try this out. Intended as a back up but I'de use it for a live show any day. Anyone on a tight budget can't really lose with this especially at this price. I'll be adding some floor pedals in front of the clean channel so i have more options.I also found a 2 button switch for Rythmn /Lead/ Effects on off. Basicaly I'm creating a back up/alternative amp set-up for fun.I'm satisfied with this amp and would not hesitate to use it live.

  I got this head to tie me over until I could afford a Marshall tube or something along those lines, but this completely blew me away, I just played a show with it last night, and it was the loudest thing there (It was a small show) but if you know how to work an EQ you can make this head do just about anything, Country, Pop, Classic rock, Metal, anything you can think of it does well, I personally play metal, and this head does that really well, I am going to hold on to this for a long while, and it is durable to boot, which is always nice, the built in effects are really good, the delay is really fun to play with
