Wondrous
The only downside to the JC120 is its massive size, but otherwise, this is the fucking paradigm of guitar amps; it doesn't get better than this. It's louder than you'll ever need it to be, has a sweet clean tone, and the chorus/vibrato sounds lovely. I love using pedals, and it handles every squeal and rumble without complaining one bit.

Incessant hissing
The chorus sound itself is pretty sweet, but the hissing it makes is godawful.

SHIMMER
There's eleven modes, but you really only need the shimmer; it fills tons of space, sounds super cool, and helps create new textures.

super epic
Beautiful color, pickups have a great attack, and the trem stays in tune really well, which is uncharacteristic of mustangs; best purchase.

Cheap and loud
Peaveys tend to be on the affordable side and this one is no exception. They also tend to be REALLY loud. I've never cranked it up past 4. Not a bad amp, but I'm not a big fan of the sound. Also, it weighs over 40 pounds, so taking it to gigs is fucking miserable.

Can of bees
We call it the "Can of Bees" because I always pump the tone knob up a little too high. It's a great pedal, I've gotten a lot of nice sounds with a few different guitars now, and it keeps up real well. I like the seperate drive knob, because it lets you throw overdrive on top of distortion to get a big wave of noise.

Lightweight punk machine
I really REALLY like this guitar. A LOT. It's light enough for a doughy kid like me to swing around like a wrapon on stage, and it's got a 22.7" scale length, which means you can move around the neck real fast. The stock pickups are probably some of the best single-coils I've ever heard: very articulate with single notes but can crunch up when you kick up the volume. HOWEVER, the tuners are the worst machines I've ever had the displeasure of using. They slip a lot, so it'll take awhile for your strings to finally settle in. Otherwise, fantastic guitar!

It's a practice amp.
It handles distortion really poorly, whether from a pedal or the overdrive channel. The clean isn't terrible and sometimes you crank out a dirty tone, but at the end of the day it's a practice amp.

Really light and affordable
I hate the sound of cheap humbuckers, but the instrument as a whole is very sturdy. I really like how the pickup toggle is by the knobs, so you can't accidentally hit it. Decent starter.

Solid instrument
It has a nice feel, and sounds really good. The tone is really versatile, because there are two mini toggles that let you switch from humbuckers to single coils, as well and a tone and volume knob for each pickup. My only complaint is that the guitar is a bit on the heavy side.
