The really funky old-school factor caught my attention. If you need to play at midnight, and maybe you don't want to wake up your wife, then you can actually go down stairs and crank it and not get y... read more [+]elled at. Greta overdrives progressively, and goes from a little raunch (think of 1950's little tube amps for beginners) to creamy (Gender Champ, gain up), to saturation (think "Shine" by Collective Soul). I wish that they had figured out a handle, though. Buy this amp. Use it as a pre-amp for the Excelsior by Fender. Use it to not upset your family. And the cute factor means you don't have to leave it in your office. close [-]
July 18, 2012 Music Background: long time amateur Sweet Little Tube Amp Combo
by Neal Vaisey from webster NY USA
This is a great little tube combo for low volume use as well as recording. It's a big plus for me to have an amp that looks like an old radio thus no complaints from the mrs if I leave it in the kitch... read more [+]en! I read an earlier review that mentioned the need for a "break in period" I couldnt agree more, this is true of all amps to some degree, but more so in this case, that small speaker is built to tight tolerances and mellows very nicely after several hours. I compare this favorably to a couple small amps I've owned for a while, My old Pignose and a Blackheart Killer ant that I hot rodded with a Bitmo kit. I'll be looking for a similar mod kit for this as it sounds very much like the killer ant did before the mod. Lastly as with most amps you gotta take some time to get used to Greta, she'll grow on ya! close [-]

If you are looking for head room and clean chimey tones then you should look elsewhere. If you want a cool looking box of blues then check the Greta out!August 10, 2012 Music Background: Gear Head Despite it having only a Gain and ... read more [+]Volume knob, the back panel makes the Greta very versatile. The 4" speaker is a bit of a drawback but plugged in to a cabinet this thing sings. Oh yea, and the VU meter is just a cool gimmick. Break in period on the speaker is a MUST. close [-] Great Little Greta
by Dave from Charlton, MA USA

August 2, 2012 Music Background: The Great Greta
by Mark from St. Louis
Ok, if you want a really cool looking piece of eye candy in your studio or in your bookcase etc, whatever, it is worth the price alone just for that. As my wife said, OMG that is so cute! In use by ... read more [+]itself it is not very loud but it does have a very nice sweet clean sound on one end and then can get incredibly raunchy on the other end. That said, if you plug it into another amp or speaker cabinet with more power or watts etc it will kick your butt. I don't think you will be disappointed, I like it and I use it and I'm keeping it. close [-]
