depending on what type of sound you want, you may or may not like this amp...the other guittarist in my metal band uses this amp. For metal,hard rock,classic rock, or basically anything with distortion, this is a great amp, so if thats what you're looking for then this amp is for you. If you want a clean sound you'd be better off going with something such as the Fender twin reverb amp...

the effects on this amp come in extremely handy. it saves the several hundred dollors on effects pedals.

everything on this amp is extremely simple. a monkey could use this amp, thats how simple it is.

this is a great amp for a great price.

i'm going to give this a 10. between the different distortion sounds you can get out of it, the built in effects, and the lights, this is a great amp

right now i'm looking into buying this exact amp. i may go for the full stack though for just a bit more power, but i definately would not mind having this amp.

The sound this amp produces is absolutely unreal. The clean channel sounds great once you get the tone you want dialed in, but that only takes a minute or two if you know what you are doing. The rythym channel also sounds really good, my only complaint is the lack of bite in the distortion. The solo channel is great on this amp. You can choose how much you want to scoop the distortion in the lead and it sounds great when you get it set up. The effects are also very good, a lot of solid state amps sound very digital in their effects, this one sounds as close to a tube amp as Ive heard a solid state sound. THIS AMP IS LOUD!!! I play this beast in my house to practice and the volume is set to one or it is too loud, and honestly, one is almost too loud for my practice room.

The lights on the face are SEXY as hell. I like the heavy duty handle, it makes me feel safer carrying my head from place to place. The effects are awesome, yet again. There are 16 different effects and a level adjustment. I would have liked a little more customization, but hey, it still sounds good.

Absolutely a piece of cake. For this to be a stage worthy setup, it is very easy to deal with.

This amp is solid, and the cab is sturdy. I jumped up on top of my setup at my last show and the thing never once budged.

Absolutely worth every penny!!!

This is where I feel it gets its lowest mark, I expected to get a very customizable sound, but the distortion doesn't bite as much I as I wished it did. I prefer to use my stomp box distortion with it.

Really cool honestly, tuner works great and the lights are of course drop dead sexy. My only complaint here is that I wish it's DSP was fully programmable similar to the lesser GTX models, level and effects are controlled with just two knobs.

Easy easy easy... almost too simplistic

Its my first half-stack but I don't see this thing breaking for a very long time.

Its worth the money.

No need as of yet.
