"MARSHALL ROCKS AGAIN!!!!!!"

Feature:
I love the chorus-delay effect. With a little reverb it sounds like you're in an arena! I use the emulated line out to the PA, and if you use it for a headphone jack for silent practice you'll want to play all night!

Quality:
Never had any trouble with it, except the fan is a little noisy sometimes when you first cut it on. It looks fantastic!

Value:
You can't get a better sound with this volume for the money anywhere else.

Desirability:
I have it sitting on top of an MG412 cab and it looks great as a stack!

Sound:
All you tube freaks evidently don't know how to tweak! I had a JCM 800 and 1960 cab and this sounds just as good! I can do just about any style of music from country to classy blues to gritty blues to wide open metal!!! Your guitar will sustain for days.

Support:
Never had to use it.

Overall:
One day I might go for the AVT 150 or 275 because of the acoustic sim and having four channels, but I'll keep this one.

" UNBELIEVABLE AMP FOR IT'S SIZE BLEW ME THE HELL AWAY!!!"

Feature:
The sound levels are different from overdrive to clean. Really love the overdrive sound over just about any other amp i've ever played. Clean channel shocked the hell out of me, is amazing!!

Quality:
I own. Is very reliable for its size and keeps up with cabinets that i have played.

Value:
Really is what it is craked up to be it really owns any other amp at its size. Blew me away for days!!

Desirability:
Stage presebts it doesn't look like much compared to bands that use full stacks or half stacks, but is very compatable.

Support:
I did have trouble with the headphones input, it didn't work when i bought it.

Overall:
Rocks out!!!
