Good quality item
"This little amp works very good . It makes big sound in a small package . When using as an amp for acoustic guitar , it is enough for smaller venues and the balanced line out allows for use with larger PA systems ."
Amazing sound (including mids) for vocals
"I am a jazz singer and this amp is incredible. My Fishman Loudbox died on me recently and after doing a huge amount of research I picked this, because it has mids for vocals, unlike the Fishman. Actually, unlike any of the guitar/gig amps I've seen. They have it in the guitar channel only. So having it in both channels made this a must-have. The sound is absolutely beautiful and crystal clear. I use it for little restaurant gigs and it is perfectly loud enough, even with the volume only half turned up. My guitarist--one of the best jazz guitarists in the world--loved sharing it so much on our last gig that he took a picture of it so he could buy his own just to add to his arsenal of spares because it is SO CHEAP! I still can't believe the price. My Fishman is $400 new and it never sounded as good as this amp. The only other comparable amp for me in terms of sound is the AER which costs nearly $2,000! The other thing I love is that you can have two vocalists OR two guitars plugged in to the universal inputs. It's lighter than the Fishman by 6 pounds, which doesn't sound like a lot but it is. It weights about 17 pounds but I cart this to gigs in a wheeled amp bag which fits the Fishman but is a little big for the Fender. I might buy the sewing machine case on wheels I saw somewhere on Amazon. Need to measure. Meanwhile I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this amp for sound, for clarity, for portability. Reverb, mids, highs, lows. It has everything I want."
QC Issues, buzz, thumping off noise, good tone, loud
"Pros:
Good tone quality and range
Decent Reverb
Good volume
Lightweight
Compact
Cons:
Loud hiss/buzz no matter what is plugged into it. Just a noticeable buzz as soon as the amp comes on.
QC Issues, my amp casing is damaged. Looks like it got hit by something.
When I turned it off, no matter what, there is a fairly loud thumping noise. Doesn't matter if nothing is even plugged in. Loud buzz when it's on, loud thumping when it turns off.
It's a nice amp for practicing singing into a mic and the tones are nice. Just feels like a little more care could have gone into the design. Unusable for recording or performing.
Quality feels right for the price point. Objectively a mediocre amp, but for the price not bad. I think it will make a great practice tool, but not even suitable for tiny gigs because of the buzz.
UPDATE: After putting many hours into it, I think it's a 4 star amp considering the price point. I originally gave it 3 stars, I raised to 4. Mics also sound nice through it."
