It's a very interesting amp. My impressions of it are that it's a bit more flexible than some of the other amps from Fender. The clean channel has 2 different 'modes' but I found the amount of treble difference to be very disconcerting between those two modes. Also the gain channel has a good amount of available distortion and for preamp distortion, it's probably as good as any other Fender amp, the amp in general is more powerful than what I need so power tube distortion isn't really a factor.

You're so far ahead of me with your lessons... I'm an amature with such little hope of catching up. I like that white, western, Jimi Hendrix sound. Why you play your brothers' guitar, instead of a real Strat? Thanks for your free lessons.

How do they compare with traditional tube amps & the performance of a solid state amp? What about hybrid amps? How do they compare with traditional tube amps & the performance of a solid state amp?
