Great 5 watt head but cleaner than i expected
Have it for several years now and im impressed with the nice tone of it, is a really clean amp and reminds me abit to my princetone reverb whr the negative feedback switch is off and on gets a little more driven and with a bit of more brittish carachter. Another great advantage is that have an attenuator coause even having only 5 watts can get almost as loud as my or15 in 15watt mode so helps alot with home use. My only complain is that the feedback button got broken quite quick as the spring on it got out and couldt repair it, i was living in mexico at the time so i thought was too much of a problem to send it back just for that deffect and used tape when wanted to turn on the button hehe.

Big sound! big Versatility
Just got it in a sale from a big music shop chain in mexico for 1000usd and think is one of my smartest purchases, this thing sound great for almost every genre, im more of a mild gain guy and im loving the sounds but more than that the cleans as tjey have lot of headroom for pedals even in 30w mode. Even if you are looking for hard rock sunds this thing can make it (not much heavy of metal) and with the switchable options of boost you dont need more than a good reverb and the modulation pedals of your choice. No distorsion pedals needed at las you can get a tbe screamer but no more than that is needed. A shame is discontinued

Excelent semi hollow with great manufacture
I just bought the whithe panther and im very satisfied with my purchase, the quality and finish of the guitar ar excelent but the most important thing is that sounds great, it have a really clear hifi tone as i was expenting to get, even tho is made for distortion i think definetly is beter for mild distorted, clear tones and fuzz than for high gain. And about the pickups that everybody change for the tv jones, im more than pleased with the sound and wouldnt change them unless im focusing more in a more focus kind of music as i think the HS Filtertrons are truly versatile

Great sound small box and great to practice at home
This amp reaally sound classic and "real". Im very surprised with the tones you can get and how pedal friendly is when not cranked. You want real tube distortion at you aptm at night use the .1 watt feature this guy still sound good and nobody will really be mad with your playing, ask my girlfriand that use tu suffer at night haha

Great transparent tremolo with lot of versatility and a 20db boost
There is lots of tremolos that are really good but color and affect your tone and even if is for good ussually make them one trick ponys, well this tremolo will not affect your tone at all and also can make it better with the boost. The 5 optionsof waves are more than enough to cover several kind of tremolos and if you want to color your sound to give it a vibe you can use a particular reverb or distortion pedal making it really usable. An about the boos is also incredibly transparent and you can use it independently to enhance or rise the volume of your sound during songs. Try it

Great overdrive pedal
Love the sound and fexibility of it, the curve knob is very useful even if at the beggining once you use it you will see how affect the tone for good

Nice variety of phase sounds but...
Only complaint about it is that in the 4 and 6 phase stages, the volume drops, still the sound out of it are good buuuut

Knowing that it drops in volume, would you get it again?

If i were looking forma moderna sounds i would do ir in a second also for price and versatility as The 10 and 12 doesnt hace any drop and The step mode sound really cool, in The case Of vintage sounds like The 6 and 4 stage phaser i would go for a uní vibe if The budget allow ir ir a phase 90. And about The volume drop if you are only using it on during The entire song or you have a volumen pedal there will be not so mucho problem

Really complete analog delay!!
All the features you could ask in a dealay are here!!! 900ms of delay, controlable modulation, adjustable tone and up to 3 seconds of delay in tap tempo( i must say really lo-fi dark reapeats after 1000ms) and among all is still pretty easy to use and great sounding. The feedback and gain knobs are only usable until 1 oclock as they get out of control after that, also in the trails mode the pedal stop being true bypass and the buffer is so crappy the signal gets reduced and dark, i must say that boss pedals have a 100 times better buffer

Really Great chorus but not that great vibrato sounds
Dialing the knobs you can get any chorus sound you want and with the intensity swith you can make it bit deeper wet sounding, The wet bass i find that must be on all the time as really anhace te sound. The vibrato mode is not as good but good for lo fi and kind of ring modulator sounds

Great fuzz/ distortion pedal
Is a hi-fi big muff, with more versatility as the small knobs for scoop and crunch cover a wide range of fuzz and distortion sounds. You can play from stone,. alternative, and classic rock. Perfect for smashing pumpkins sounds, for solos and also fuzz faces sound as with the crunch all the way up it gets more vintage sounded. Blend it with a octaver and can make excelent sounds too

Great wha pedal!!!
I find it really nice sounding and usefull wha it have a good range of sound hamonically rich. Have to try it also love the cooper finish. complaint it have a small microphonic sound

Bit too dark for my taste
Dont misunderstand it does sund good but is not as agressive as i thought, i find it fat,creamy and dark sound, that is good for solos but is not as useful as other fuzz faces
264
Love the color!!
Great same features as the other AS strato´s but i really like the color might not look as good on photo but must check it out, my only complaint about it is the bridge pickup as i find it bit to thin sound but will upgrade it for a SSL-5 soon!!

Great Ash tele
Like the rustic finish and it have excelent resonance, the pick ups are bit too how but great for indie rock and quite versatile

nice lo-fi sounds
Good complement for fuzz solos or fattened sounds, also good for lo fi sounds
