A great little home practice amp
By EVH-wannabeVerified Purchaser from Northern VA on 5/28/2009
Pros:
Easy To Use, Excellent Sound, Portable
Best Uses:
Home Studio
Describe Yourself:
Experienced
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I love this nice little amp for playing at home. The great effects, aux-input, and compact size makes it perfect for small room practice. Don't expect this little guy to punch like my Fender Pro Reverb when I need real power, but it works great for what it is designed to do.

 
Great Sound, but still only 2w
By Diggy from Mid Coast Maine on 3/3/2009
Pros:
Easy To Use, Excellent Sound, Portable
Cons:
Limited use, Weak
Best Uses:
Amateur Recording, Practicing
Describe Yourself:
Experienced
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Good sound but very weak. If you want some crisp or clear sound, without gain forget it. If you are in a large room, even alone you will want some more muscle. A couple of folks told me that this little 2 watter equaled others 15 watt amps. Not true. Great adjustability and good sound but nothing under the hood. Best if used with headphones.
