Tone and Looks, Pretty clear cut
Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2015
Model: V9106Verified Purchase
It looks like a tiny AC-30. It is built in Vietnam, but don't let that fool you. It feels pretty tight and no internal buzzing that I was aware of the cabinet area. There may be some built in modeling of which is not disclosed. It has that British Jangly distorted tone on the 2nd channel. On the clean channel, using the gain upwards of 3/4 will give you the introduction of some distorted tones and mimicking a valve type amp. I was overall impressed with how nice it does sound, so much so that I may get second one for another room, perhaps the red special edition at the same price or the version with the British flag in white.

The only negative was the lack of a reverb. Even if they would have added a digital modeled reverb, it would have been a great add on, but this bare bones amp is probably light years ahead of the amp I started on with which was a small Transistor Sears amp in the mid to late 70's..

As far as recording goes, using an external Mic would be no problem. Understand that the smaller an amp is, the close proximity of a Microphone will make it sound larger. It's only in open air and further away that the sound of the smaller speaker will show it's tininess. If you have this amp at or near ear level or pointed up towards you at about 4-5 feet away, it sounds like a larger amp. Regardless, I was impressed. Great value and I would say it's above a practice amp. It would absolutely handle a recording job as well for a different type of tone.

One of my most satisfying purchases ever.
Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2016
Model: V9106Verified Purchase
I'm a household musician. I don't gig, I don't play in a band, and I don't record very often. Usually, I'm picking my acoustic on my porch. Some years ago, I got it in my head that I wanted to play around with an electric occasionally, so I bought one. I also bought an effects pedal and a nice set of headphones. Living in an apartment and having no other need for an amp, I figured the headphones were sufficient, and they were, for years.

Moved to the country, and decided I wanted a setup that could sit, be organized, and could be turned on whenever the mood struck me. The catch was, I didn't want to buy anything too expensive, and I didn't want to be suckered into getting more than I needed. My biggest gripe these days is how hard it is for normal folks to sort through advertisements and elitism to find the "all you'll need" model of anything. From cars to computers to even food, it's impossible to know where your own satisfaction ends and excess begins.

I can say that this little amp is an exception for me. It is exactly, perfectly, everything I need; it's loud, sounds excellent, is small and lightweight, and is awesomely priced. Looks nice, too; the retro, low-profile vibe is perfect on display in my living room with my guitar hanging above it. I play mostly metal and hard-rock through it, and still haven't gotten anywhere near as loud as it can go. The sound is monstrous for its size, and the overdrive is more than sufficient for jamming on your own. Add a few pedals for fun, and baby, you got a stew goin.

The amp is great, and for the price it cannot be beat. If you're a beginner, it would be an excellent starter amp that would see you through many levels of skill building. If you're cramped for space or need to be able to easily move it, you can't get more sound in as small a package. If you're like me and have been playing for 20+ years, know the elitists are almost always wrong, and want killer amp for a sweetheart budget, then look no further.

Huge sound in a tiny package, best tone for the money.
Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2016
Model: V9106Verified Purchase
This amp was recommended to me by several people, but I was somewhat skeptical about getting something so small. I blindly ordered it, having never played on one, and was quite taken by surprise when I first plugged it in.

First of all, this thing CAN get loud. I have heard people saying a practice amp cannot put out enough sound to play live gigs with, however this amp is powerful enough to fill small bars just fine.

Secondly, the clean tone is godly. Quite easy to get an incubus-like clean tone. With that being said, I REALLY wish it had built in reverb. Coming from an amp with built-in reverb, you may have some trouble adjusting to the lack there of. But for the price and size I guess you can't ask too much.

The built-in distortion is also quite breathtaking. It's hard to believe such a little amp is putting out that kind of sound while your playing it. My friend who is a die-hard Les Paul guy even said my strat sounded amazing put through that distortion. I can get a Bush-like dirty tone with ease on my fender strat SSS and the overdrive with gain turned up a bit.

Overall, I don't think you can get a better amp under $200, and CERTAINLY not under $100 as this was when I bought it. In addition to having the power to fill a decent sized venue, amazing tone (clean and dirty), and being small enough to fit anywhere and fit in your passenger seat, it looks very stylish too. I would recommend this amp 100% to anyone reading this.

My son who plays 1-2 hrs everyday since he started to play guitar 2 years ago needed practice so upgrade. For less than $250, this is the best amp with best sound. Absolutely live the size, sound, aesthetics and versatility. Clean is great as well.

For teenagers, this is by far the best. Beats fender frontman series and Marshall 10, 15 and 20 without a doubt.

It is small, light, and easy to transport. I was a bit sceptical about the speaker, as it is only 6", but my fears were unfounded. It has a nice crisp, distortion-free sound even at higher volumes.

Perfect practice amp or for small venues.
