Great combo amp that will do what you need
This amp has served me well. Got it used for $425 at GC. It's fairly powerful and puts out enough sound for any club or bar gig. I do find that the overdrive can be a bit 'tight' since it's a Fender. Nonetheless I use the drive channel backed off for my clean sound. And cranked it can actually sound pretty cool. I bump the bass a bit, cut the treble a bit, and put presence to 10 to open it up and smooth out the harshness. It takes pedals great of course. Also excellent for recording. My spring reverb only works intermittently unfortunately, but it sounds great when it does work. I wish the foot pedal could also toggle the reverb on and off. Anyway, I would recommend this for anyone looking for a solid combo amp!
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Clean Tone with TV Jones Humbuckers: Drive Channel, Drive 3.5, Treble: 5.5, Mid 6.5, Bass: 7.5, Presence 10, Master: 3

Nice Output, Chonky Mids
Great pickup, very nice shimmer and hot output. It became a little too 'chonky' in the mids for me, but with certain playing styles or genres, it might be a nonissue.
