Zombie : Cheap amp, great sound

5 years ago

I use this amp to practice and record my own music. I was looking for an affordable option that would give a nice tone and I found it.

I'd happily use this amp for gigs, it is very loud for it's small size and super easy to carry, besides it wouldn't hurt my wallet to replace it in case it "went missing".

I've never owned a tube amp before, so my opinion on that might not be very reliable, but I think it sounds great and a lot better than amp sims or digital emulation, that's for sure.

It only has one knob for shaping the tone, which is kind of like a low pass filter, it's not very versatile, obviously, but it gets the job done, as I said, it sounds great.

One of the things that I don't like, is the fact that it doesn't feel sturdy, it's just too light, and it can easily fall if bumped. The metal casing, however, feels like it can certainly take a fall but I don't know about the circuitry.

The bluetooth function is kinda cool to practice, however the sound quality depends entirely on the cabinet. Also I feel like the volume of the track playback is very low compared to the guitar, and it has no way to adjust it besides the phone's volume control
