After a couple of months of usage I can say this is a great amp indeed, perfect for home use thanks to it's master volume, but can easily keep up with a drummer thanks to its 12'' speaker and 60W of power. Amazing sound without the hassle of valves, completely analogue (except for the reverb, but all 3 modes sound pretty good anyway), low maintenance, and it looks amazing. I'm very grateful for the effects loop as well. If I had one wish it would be an aux input or maybe a headphone out, but it's just not that kind of amp. It does what it says on the box very well and if you're the kind of person that feels the cons of valves far outweigh the possibly but not necessarily better sound, I'd recommend you take a look at the Crush.
