Little Beast Dec 02, 2010
By Vicente R. Delgado
I'm surprised nobody has done a review on this. This amp sounds great. This amp has a great tube sound with the 12AX7 preamp and boy is it loud. The clean sound is great and the overdrive with the shift button is excellent for classic rock. For heavy metal, I run this through a Digitech RP255 and I get endless tonal capabilities. I reccommend this over any solid state amp. It is a steal for $100.

Budget tube, priceless sound. Jun 17, 2011
By James Doolen
I wish I had found this earlier. Like last poster said" Buy this instead of any digital amp for your first amp." This amp is basic on dials but very big on sound. Blows my digital Berginger out of the water. For 15 watts, this thing will vibrate some walls and floors. For the price it beats out even higher class tube amps with effects. Just use pedals and save money. You will not be sorry for this purchase. About ime someone made a affordable tube amp.
Practice Amp ready to go from Beginner to Pro May 05, 2012

"BRAT!"
I bought this the other day and I saw a site that had a bad review of this amp that made me take pause. I will rebutt that review even though it is not on this site because it almost affected my decision in buying. The person was whining about it making noise though the earphone port which I can say I can see happening. This is a tube amp and not solid state and basically it's taking the raw tone and dumping it on the headset. Which could make you deaf too by the way if you don't learn how to use a volume knob. This isn't a simulated headphone port. I put the biggest set of headphones with the best monitoring they make on this little guy. If you intend to play the lead setting through the headset your going to have to turn the volume way DOWN. And the closer you are with your cheapo headphones the more feedback and noise will hit the headphones.
I endorse this as a great first amp and great little practice amp. Your going to need to buy GUITAR EFFECTS PEDALS to go with the amp if you intend to do everything you hear on the radio. You can play without pedals but all in all it gets pretty boring no matter what tube amp you have. Many things affect the tone of a guitar, here are a few and the most major. 1. The Player (if you play like crap your going to sound like crap) 2. Effect Pedals 3. The Pickups on the Guitar(active vs passive and the output of the pickups). Go on You Tube, Google and use your mind before your wallet before spending money on gear. Effect Pedals that YOU think sound cool online will flat out cause people to walk out of anywhere your sound is playing. Find out what your hero's play or guys you want to be like. And if you buy effect pedals and you find out you don't like them you can generally turn around and resell them again on auctioning sites or here on AMAZON. And I do NOT recommend Solid State amps EVER. Sure they come with plenty of fancy effects when you buy the amp. They tend not to work for long and sound LAME compared ANY Tube amp and the drummer usually will drown you out if you ever try to gig with a solid state amp. Plus once your solid state amp is broken you can't take the effects with you to use on your next amp.

"I Buy Stuff"
I've been playing around with this thing for three days now and I have no complaints. It is solidly constructed, portable, and capable of filling an apartment with quality sound. So far I have been able to match tones to Black Sabbath, ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Rush, Spoon, Radiohead, Chet Atkins, almost Hendrix on Hey Joe, and Jack White. And it didn't take much. And I used no effects. Just a Hagstrom Viking plugged into it.
It will not do death metal--without bringing your own effects to the fold. But it does classic tube drive admirably. Good warmth and fuzz if you want it, and also good fat clean tones if you want it. Brilliant little amp.
I think tube and solid state each offer benefits--obviously, or they wouldn't make both. But a tube preamp (like here) with the stable output of a solid state amp works in this package. You can pay a lot more for all tube and not best the quality sound of this practice amp.
I also like that on such a budget model with a tube they included a nice headphone out option. The input for jamming along is nice too, if you need that. I personally like to crank the stereo up and play along, but sometimes people are sleeping, so who knows.
This amp offers enough settings to be truly versatile (including a mid filter cut) and the guts to go snarling Texas boogie or elegant composure to render beautiful clean jazz or country tones. And just about everything in between.
Highly recommended. I expect the sound quality will progress as the tube is played in as with all things tube ultimately do.
Note: I purchased it on Amazon (best price I found new), but played around in a music store before deciding.
