I bought this very same amp a few months ago, and since then I have had nothing but positive experiences with it. It offers the great Fender clean tone, the spring reverb, and a respectable variety of overdriven and distorted tones. I found the new circuit to offer a little too much gain for my taste, so I swapped out the first 12AX7 and replaced it with a lower gain 12AY7, which has smoothed out the tone and made everything sound a little bit sweeter. I was also really pleasantly surprised by the Eminence Cannabis Rex speaker; I thought it was supposed to come with a Jensen P12Q, and was momentarily upset when I saw the Eminence. However, I actually have come to prefer it to the Jensen; the smoother breakup works well with the higher gain on tap in the amp, and it provides a much smoother and less brittle sounding clean tone. To sum it all up, this amp doesn't do everything, but it does everything you'd want from a Fender, and it provides terrific value for the money.

I have a 2003 MIM Blonde/oxblood version, so, in fairness it's not the III version. That said, you absolutely will NOT find a better all round 6L6 Spring Reverb equipped Tube AMP PERIOD. This has All the Tones you want (Stevie Ray, John Mayer, Pete Townsend, etc.) coming straight out, with no Pedals. Stick a few Pedals in front, and a Chorus in the effects loop, and now you've got every Tone from Every Artist that is "Musical". You're not gonna get an exact match to Judas Priest, but you'll get pretty close! You can get Sabbath Tones pretty close too. Harrison, Beck, Petty, Hendrix, those sounds can all be coaxed out with some quality Pedals. I can Cut through the mix easily, and even in a small practice space, with a Loud Drummer, Bass, and another guitar (through a Boogie MkIV, and a 4x12) I don't need turn the volume past 2 1/2. That said, as it was purchased used, my Test was to crank every knob right up (they go to 12 btw!) and play it for 5-10 minutes. Trust me, unless you're playing with no PA system, you'll never play this full blast. Oh, it sounded fantastic with everything "pinned" at 12!!

Purchased this amp from another company last year. Returned it with microphonic power tubes. The clean channel is very mid heavy, but has a full bottom end. The drive channels are fun and buzzy, but lack the bottom end fullness of the clean channel, even when the amp is played lour. Recommend lighter amounts of overdrive. Currently I use only the clean channel with a FullTone Plimsoul in front of it - great blues and rock sound. The stock speaker is actually voiced pretty well - tried a Celestion Vintage 30 and it sounded awful. Also tried the amp with a 25 watt Celestion greenback 4x12 cab, and sounds great. Beware these special edition pieces. Look great, decent build, but may need some tweaking.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
