its cute

I got this last weekend at my local guitar shop. It has a very wide range of drive options and is what I will use when traveling most likely.

Decent Amp

It’s alright, but it realeases hissing and ringing noises. It has limits and pushing those limits damages the amp itself, your ears, and anyone else’s ears within a 250 ft raduis of the amp.
