I’ve had this amp for about 4 months, and I like it a lot. Fantastic sound, and it gets shlepped around a lot without any problems (nice heavy handle, solid frame).
The pentode overdrive mode has a really knarly growl, while the triode gives a warmer tone (I prefer the triode mode and use a pedal for heavier distortion). Clean channel has a really nice electric sound by itself or with delay/distortion effects. I play an Epi Les Paul into a Boss ME50 pedal board. It has two powered outputs and I run one into a Behringer GI-100 direct input box to the Mixer (let’s me skip hassles with Mic’s without sacrificing sound quality) and the other productivity powers the internal speaker for the boards monitoring.
It’s kind of heavy (50+ lbs), so I seriously recommend a small dolly cart if you have to carry it for any distances (I use the RocknRoller R2).
