WOW
Forget the cost, this is a fantastic little valve amp. Sounds great to my ears. If you factor in the cost, it's kind of unbelievable.
The only thing I'm not keen on is the indicator valve. It makes it look a little gimmicky, but other than that, awesome. It's going to be my emergency spare when the world gets back to allowing live music. And something to play with at home.

Best head for small studio
Bought that head and G412A cab for my studio.
The head is 15 watts and with my new cabinet included it satisfies all my needs! it is very important that I did it wrong, I did not take into account the resistance of the cabinet and head, so I advise everyone who purchases to pay attention to how to correctly connect the head to the cabinet and also buy a vocal cable in advance to connect them. the head has the basic most necessary functions - a built-in equalizer (bass, mid, high tones), a drive switch, an effects loop, a jack for a foot switch and others. also due to the size, if you buy this head and let’s say a Harley Benton G412 cabinet, then there will be a place for the things a guitarist needs such as picks, slides, capos, and at your own risk, your favorite bottle of beer! ;)

A total monster of an amp deal for any arsenal!
I tried this amp, because, although I'd never heard of Thomann or this amp, it was rated tops in a listing of bargain small amps, which I had been seeking of several, but often striking out. Thomann hit this one out of the ballpark! I sounds fantastic for anyone wanting a bonafide tube amp high-gain type of sound---and that's just what I'd been seeking.

Blues Junior Killer!
WOW! What an amplifier! Just add an overdrive pedal and some delay/reverb and it sings! Plenty loud enough to compete with a live drummer and when you hit the overdrive pedal it's almost organic (or something that sounds like it!). Almost.......
UPDATE:
I sold this to a mate and ordered another one. On arrival, the Chinese output EL84 valves red plated and lit up like fireworks so I switched it off immediately before any damage was done. A return was accepted by Thomann. I have recently bought another one as "B" stock and it is just as good as the original one that I bought. This one has JJ branded EL84s so suspect that the original valves suffered the same fate or they just fit better valves now.
Yet again, it arrived without a UK compatible mains lead.

Unbelievable
I have owned all sorts of amps during the last 20 years - Fender Blues Junior, Vox AC30, Orange rocker 30, etc. This little amp is almost as good as these. OK, it's not quite there, but almost, and for the price, it is amazing! So much so, that I have got rid of all my other amps and am now just using this one. I am running it through the Harley Benton G212 Celestion V30. It sounds the bomb! I love it.
Can you tell how excited I am about this amp?

Just what I was looking for
Good volume and great gain and versatility from a true 15w head which just can't be mocked for the price. I can set this so my Gibsons just push it to breaking, it takes pedals perfectly. I also play in a rock'n'roll / country outfit where it provides excellent cleans and I can apply a little extra gain from an EQ pedal. Just perfect.

Absolutely Awesome
I can’t say enough good things about this head. I play pretty much straight ahead rock/blues, and this thing is absolutely perfect for that. It gets shockingly loud, and - when paired up with a 2x12 - is perfect for any venue with a mic setup. It has become my go to.
