    Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2023
    I needed a small practice amp with effects and this fills the bill perfectly. I play jazz/blues and am satisfied with the sounds this little solid state amp provides. The effects are just right for my needs and the size and price are a great value. The amp is quiet without hum or noise, and provides a clean sound with great effects options. It also has a aux input and a tempo set for delay effects. Great sound dynamics.
