I will wear this amp out.
Sound
What a great amp ! The clean channel is very clean...my electric sounds like an acoustic guitar, but loud. The Contour control (lead channel) brings in a full bodied guitar tone. I prefer the slight 'breaking up' overdriven sound this Marshall has. I switch back & forth between the clean acoustic guitar sound and the warm, singing overtone sound. The FX are very clean and usable. I mostly use a touch of delay. Overall: It's light, it's loud, it's inexpensive & it sounds good !
Features
There are 2 downsides to this amp, IMHO. #1 - The FX aren't foot switchable (why?). I'd like to be able to click the delay in & out. Or, reverb ob the clean channel, delay on the lead channel. #2 - The Line out jack disconnects the speaker (why?). I'd like to feed the signal into the PA. But, I also like to have a little control over my stage volume.
Ease of Use
Very intuitive. No problems.
Quality
It looks very well made to me.
Value
Well worth the price paid !
