Good small amp with a beautiful chorus effect

It is a really good small amp for practice, rehearsals and small gigs. It has a really beautiful chorus effect. I use it mostlly for acoustic guitar, since the distortion available doesn´t really sound nice. It can be used for electric guitar as well, specially if you play jazz, blues and folk music. Very high quality.
