I got this amp after I sold out a 120 watts transistor amp, just to practice with proper volume at home. The original idea was to buy a tube-amp but since this was on discount, I bought it. Sounds little boxy, the knobs tend to crisp now after three years of usage, is a transistor amp so sometimes is hard to push any feeling through it without much dynamics, but is good to practice and pushing hard to get a nice blues technique.
I also should mention, I was used to my big amp with reverb, then this one is without effect, just a drive channel. So, at the first time you have to tweak the knobs a little until you find your tone.

I have been using some effects through the clean channels and it sounds fine. It helped to do a kind-of wet/dry with the AC15.
