    I bought this amp looking for something louder and sounds different then my rumble 40. You can get nice orange tones out of this and that's about it. There is so much gain on this thing that anything above 8 o'clock is basically fuzz. As for volume, my rumble 40 is significantly louder than this. Unless you just absolutely have to have this sound, there are more powerful and versatile amps at this price

  • Good solid amp for the money. Wide variety of sounds.

    My cheap entry level Samsung soundbar could drown out this amplifier in the living room. There is absolutely no way you would be able to use this with a drummer. I have the 50 w version and this 100 watt version wasn't really any louder but it cost twice as much. Extremely disappointed.

  • This thing THUMPS.

    I'm running my Epi Thunderbird through one of these bad boys and the tone is incredible. It's warm and luscious, yet somehow punchy and articulate at the same time. The parametric mid EQ is a great tool that allows you to sculpt your tone for any situation. The bi-amp setup is brilliant, the distortion on this thing sounds absolutely fantastic. It keeps up with a full band no problem. Perfect for a small venue. The DI out is post-EQ and fx, and sounds super full, seriously almost as good as a mic'd up cab. I knocked off a star for two reasons. The main reason- it does not come with a footswitch. A little annoying, considering the price of the amp.. Also there is not a volume for the dirty channel, so it's a little tricky to get your levels right when switching between clean and blended channels. Cons aside, this amp looks great and sounds absolutely incredible.
