Product Experience I own it Closest Store Abbotsford British Columbia
I have had this amp along with two 4 X 12 5150 III cabs for a couple of years. Blows me away everytime I turn it on. All my guitars sound great through it...definitely a professional system...clean, dirty, or best of all...channel 3!

Product Experience I've tried it Closest Store Port Coquitlam British Columbia
I tried this amp with the guitar I was trying out(which I currently own right now)the guitar sound amazing with distortion on, playing some old style rock songs and some more recent metal and rock songs, and without it also sounds amazing, played stairway to heaven, and other soft songs,and some video game songs , which also sounds awesome, if I had the money I would soo buy this amp, this amp is super amazing highly recommended
