Need a therapist after this one

I rented a practice room for my band and this was the guitar amp I was cursed with. Sounds absolutely horrible on every gain setting - with pedals and without them. EQ controls barely do anything and it always sounds midscooped. The character of dirty channels can only be described as headache inducing hiss with clean tone in the background. I would rather use a 10w Fender Frontman because at least it has some charm to it unlike this blasphemy. The only "good" thing about it is that it can get louder then drums (so does a well timed fart). I have never been so frustrated by a piece of gear... Im hurt, confused, conflicted and traumatised
