Guitar practice amps: opinions sought

42
Ok, so I finally got one a few weeks back. I really like it. The clean sound is really great with just a bit of break up. I use it like this 90% of the time. It is the perfect setting for just practicing too as it is a little more colorful than dead clean, but doesn't invite much more twiddling. It has a nicely distinct voice when compared to my champ. I've run the two amps together using a stereo out pedal and it sounded really nice. The Vox can sound nice at very, very low volume. I've been using it for late night practice along with grab and go practice in the garage. The breakup can get a little nasty if you push it. I've not even tried the boost function yet as I'm happy with the standard option. It doesn't jam with dirt boxes quite as well as I hoped, but it is hard to compete with my Champ in that regard. A Rat sound fine. OCD clone sounds fine. Colorsound Overdriver and EQD Sound Shank sound kinda odd and off. Oh well. It sounds like when stacking pedals and the result isn't inspiring but not a disaster either. The tremolo and reverb are nice. Unless I'm spacing out I just don't use reverb, so it is hard to judge it. It is mild and pleasant. The same is true of the tremolo. It doesn't get super chop or super fast, but it's a nice thing to have. Personally, I like it better than reverb, both in general and in this case.Seems like it can get loud, but I don't use it for that. A- Great little practice amp.
