I've only had it a few days, so this is a preliminary review, but all good so far. I'm fairly new to electric guitar, more of an acoustic guy, so my taste in tone is somewhat unrefined, But, this amp sounds great to my ears. I like a clean-ish sound with a bit of dirt, and this amp can do that really well. Yesterday I mic'ed it and played it through the PA in my jamspace and it sounded excellent. It's a fairly crappy PA (lots of caveats in this review!), but still sounded good. Nice full tone. Sounds rich and guitar-ific to my ears. Sounds good with a reverb and tremolo pedal. Overdrive pedal sounds good too. The 1W/5W attenuator is helpful. The 1W is good for playing it home. On 1W at low volumes I hook up an OD pedal to get a bit o' dirt. Works fine! Lightweight, looks really nice, well built. I think for the money it's a no-brainer. You can have several options for comparable 5W amps if you buy them used. I figured I'd buy this one, try it, and if I didn't like it, return it and go used. Looks like I'm keeping it, so that says something.

It's a cool little practice amp, and a great pedal platform. But, it can get quite rude and bark back at you: fair warning to all you bedroom players.

Sonne très bien.

You can get higher headroom for more cleans - you just need to replace the 12AX7 with a 5751. This amp is a very good deal. Personally, I'd spend the extra to get the 15w version - has real spring verb, gain/volume controls, tone controls and more.
