Decent amp for the price.

Got this amp a while ago for my daughter who’s just started playing and it’s been sturdy. Got the accompanying foot switch too. For the quality range and price, it sounds good. The effects are a nice touch. I’ve given 5 stars based on the price range. Happy with the quality for the price. They’re fairly matched. It’s a good enough amp for someone starting out and performing little gigs. The headphone socket is a small one (1/8”). The amp is quite light to carry. I recommend this amp. The sound effects are good for exploring the sounds of the guitar, and for practising too. The headphone socket is a gem for any parent of a beginner guitarist who lives in an apartment, or anyone with unsympathetic neighbours and family members. The amp goes quite loud too.

Sounds great for the price

The clean channel sounds nice and all of the Fender sims on the crunch channel sound nice as well. The high-gain amps are a little less convincing, but still good enough.

The various modulations are all ok, nothing special, only the plate setting is creating some "hiss".

All in all, for the money, this is very hard to beat, so if you are looking for a first budget amp, this is a very good option!

Sound gets a 3 cause the dirt channels are kinda bad, But I was looking for a clean solid state amp that takes pedals really well But wont break the bank, what a godsent this amp is:) plus points for the tap tempo delay and a really smooth reverb

Incredibile

I needed a good home amp with 12inch speaker. I bought it after trying out champ 40W. Champ 40w was pretty good and after reading reviews about Champ 50XL i tought it might be even better than champ 40. And my hunch didn't gave up on me. Celestion SPEAKER is Amazing gives 3d type of sound. Clean tones on canal 1 are the best part of this amp. Ideal for pedals, amp takes them well, and the speaker with reverb and delays pedals gives awesome sound.

Canal 2 is usable, good 3.metal options which you can actually chug with.

British and Crunch part are also not bad for older rock, and blues.

Effects are quite basic but are usable for home practice.

The only 2 things that are a minus are missing effects loop and mids nob.

Volume i play it between 8 and 9 o' clock and its quite enough for apartment. No issues with police so far.

Bang for buck

Very nice and versatile combo. I have used it for over 2 years in studio rehearsals and live performances indors and outdors. It is realy loud, lots of options for classic fender tones and more. it takes fx pedals in front very well. Again hard to find anything better for the price

A cheap amp

I wanted a cheap practice amp that's good enough for an occasional outing. I especially wanted a good clean sound, which this has.

There are not lots of features and the various set-point tonal settings are dial-in. But there's enough eq on the tone controls for me. I'm not worried about masses of effects. I use four pedals [which includes a noise reduction pedal] on the input.

This amp is light and has good volume. The build quality is obviously down to a price, but adequate. It's not going to stand up to a lot of road treatment. but again that's not what I want it for.

Good amp

The greatest thing about this amp is the speaker; that's what you should buy it for. additional to that it is quite versatile and even the build in effects are sometimes useful

But the speaker is amazing.
