I bought this amp used for $360 at Guitar Center in Massachusetts. I needed an amp that was powerful enough to play small shows and cheap enough for me to afford.

The amp has POWER. This amp really shakes the walls, even at low volume levels. I was surprized how loud 100watts actually was. This amp also has great tone. It didn't sound muddy like some other 15" amps I tried. The highs are crisp and the lows really thump. I also liked the tilt-back feature.

The only problem that I have had is hissing from the tweeter. Though, it really isn't much of a problem. When you're playing, you can't notice the hiss and it isn't all that loud unless you turn up the highs.

This amp really takes a beating. I dropped it from my mothers SUV. It fell about 3' and landed upside-down. The only damage was some denting at the metal renforement at one corner and a slight clack in the wood at that same corner. (It must have taken the brunt of the impact.) It still sounds perfect and i have never had a problem with it.

This amp is a great value, tough, and really stands out in its price range. i reccomend this amp to anyone who wants a nice small gig amp at very fair price.
