A friend is thinking of getting a new amp, and since this is small and inexpensive with some effects, he is considering one.


Does anyone have any experience with this kind of amp? I've read good reviews, and the different amp styles are interesting. It even has a mic pre.

[crazy_guitar_man]

yeah actually i had two of these little babies and they do pack a punch...i just couldn't tell ya about the mic cuz i never had a mic to use with it...but yeah they are pretty good little amps if you have any more questions about it i would gladly answer them :2thumbups:

[cubis]

lol, what color are they?

the white one looks pretty, so i'd have to choose between that and classic black

[crazy_guitar_man]

yeah i have two black ones and i just like black becuz white gets too dirty for me haha

[cubis]

that's true... and I AM an awfully messy person...


how are the effects on it? I'm sure they're not pedal quality but are they passable? what are your favorite amp models on it?

[crazy_guitar_man]

um the effects are decent actually i mean if your gona use it as a practice amp which i imagine is what your friend wants to do then yeah the effects are good...ill have to recheck the amp i honestly don't think i had a favorite but i will go check them when i get a chance

[cubis]

that would be really helpful... and yeah my friend just wants to use it to practice

[crazy_guitar_man]

i have school all day today till about 3 ish so when i get home i will plug it in and check it out...

[cubis]

oh, no rush! i have school all day today too


if you can, if you can record a little with each amp model, then maybe a couple of the effects it'd be much appreciated

[crazy_guitar_man]

i could sure do that for ya haha cuz im nice like that :2thumbups: but yeah might take another day i got a stupid 3 page book report tomarrow

[cubis]

yeah i have a 6 page paper due last week but i'm turning it in this week lol

[crazy_guitar_man]

haha yeah i just got done with mine it was on the death and trial of socrates haha i took history as a gen ed...im thinking i shouldn't have haha

[crazy_guitar_man]
