Nice sound, light, solid and reasonably priced.

I really like this amp head. After playing a super heavy Hartke combo for 20+ years, I needed something lighter, but with enough power and flexible tone controls.

The eq is nice and musical. The eq-frequencies have been well selected. The low mid control is extremely helpful for cutting some mud, if you need a hi-fi tone. Instant Marcus Miller.

The compressor is good. It takes some time and tweaking to find a suitable amount/treshold of compression, but this applies compressors in general.

I have easily found a good sound for my fretless 5-string bass as well as for my fretted 6-string with this amp, without any pedals. I also cannot imagine a situation where I would need a more powerful amp than this.

Great first bass amp even as a backup. No bells and whistles but I honestly think it puts many, more expensive heads to shame!! It's silent (no fan), the 4 band EQ is very good, very portable and light unit with headphones out & aux in. At this price you cannot go wrong.

I love this little monster !
Neiler 18.11.2020
Such a Massive sounding little amp , Really big and focused tone , the built in Thrust compressor is as nice a compressor as many compressors that would cost more than this amp ! the whole amp behaves amazingly from big warm compressed tones , to dynamic and very focused slap tones . whether used into a cab or taking the balanced out to a PA .

Very good amp !

Had it for 3 years now. It's a nice amp with really good features and a really good sound. It's well built and it's quite cheap for the quality you are getting. Decent compressor too. The line in is vey useful for my drum machine and you can use this amp with headphones too for silent practice. Overall, a great buy ! Very happy with it !
