HD25 : Packs a punch!

I've been using Hartke products for years and the company has never let me down. This practice amp has quite a bit of power for being so small. I really have to play it on the lowest volume setting in my apartment so I don't drive my neighbors mad.

The sound particularly shines if you like to slap. However, you can still get it to produce some rich warm tones. This is probably due to their mix of aluminum and paper speakers.

The settings are easy to adjust. Some people may want to have more options, but I generally think less is more.

Overall, this is a solid practice amp that doesn't disappoint.

The only major concern I have is that is appears to be made in China instead of the USA. I know some bassists who claim that the quality of Hartke's products has suffered as a result. In my case, I have had not major issues with this amp. I suppose the cumulative result of the reviews here is a good measure of overall product quality.
