Man, I purchased two of these baby's! I play in Stereo through my Digitech GNX4 workstation. Sweeeet! There is no substitute for the sound of Tubes and there loud as hell.

This mobile amp will give you 10 times the sound you paid for at a quarter of the price you would expect to pay after listening to it and playing on it.
Nice amp before/greatness after modifications
by Tige from Spokane. WA, June 2007
I have a tweed Blues Jr. Looks wise, it's killer/vinatge looking. Stock this amp has a very boxy tone that alot of people attribute to the speaker. I had my amp modified by BillM (from the Fender forum site). This amp is now a tone machine! You can coax about any sound except metal from it. It sounds like an expensive Fender amp and is great for recording. the tonal palette is amazing. My amp has the following mods: presence control, tone stack, twin stack, bais control, Power Supply Stiffening Mod, Phase Inverter Oscillation Mod. My '52 vinatge Tele and EJ Strat sound amazing through it. Recording chain - Shure SM 57 off axis>Vintech 1082>UA 1176 LN and Rode K2 (figure 8 pattern) 5 feet away from cabinet>UA 610 pre>Focusrite 430 MKII vintage compressor option. Blend channels to achieve desired sound. Amazing!
Two Things: Fender and Tubes
by Sanchez , December 2006
yes.......
Wonderful tube warmth. Fantastic glassy clean sound. Unfortunately for those of us who want a lot of overdrive, this amp doesn't push very hard. But the clean is worth it. If you need gain, get a pedal. This amp is FANTASTIC. Amazing value. If you only have a stinky solid state and are low on cash. go out and buy one of these babies. Well worth it.
Sweet and light, great tone,great value

15 tube watts = 120 solid state watts. This amp's EL 84's allow it to be easily overdriven producing lots of sweet, toneful sustain. It sounds great at both low & high volumes. It lacks the bite of a 100 watt amp but also weighs a lot less. A great amp for playing small clubs and easy to transport. I use it for blues & classic rock. I've got two. Worth the $$.
nothing compares
by Reid from Northern Indiana, March 2004
Nothing else compares to the greatness of this amp. I used to have a Craet GX15r and it pales in comparison. The tubes in this gem give it the warmest sound ever, and if you use the master/volume controls it gives some natural distortion that no pedal can compare. The 15 watt power rating is misleading because this amp gets extremely loud. This isnt a practice amp, it sounds too good to be one, and if you need anything louder run a PA systm.
