Review: Se ve y se siente de primera calidad - El cartón llegó un poco golpeado y con orificios de dedos, pero el ampli viene al 100. Aún no lo pruebo pero estoy seguro que me va a encantar Utaa suena super potente. Cuando crees que ya no tiene volumen pum suena super fuerte. Los efectos que tiene no creo que sean muy útiles sin un pedal para activarlos. Asyaue tendrás que comprar los accesorios Update: Me hice con el FOOT CONTROL GA-FC-EC La verdad es que si es necesario tenerlo para este amplificador. de momento no necesito mas, es todo lo que necesitas para empezar bien. (ta caro :'v)
Review: Great grab & go amp. - Great tone for acoustic and electric guitar. Easy channel and effect setup. I play in a duo and we both have one now. I have a Quilter Aviator and a Mesa Boogie 6:25 but I find myself grabbing this amp out to gig with. BTW, LOUD I play it on the 25 watt setting.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great grab & go amp.
*by P***Z on 28 January 2026*

Great tone for acoustic and electric guitar. Easy channel and effect setup. I play in a duo and we both have one now. I have a Quilter Aviator and a Mesa Boogie 6:25 but I find myself grabbing this amp out to gig with. BTW, LOUD I play it on the 25 watt setting.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Even better than I expected
*by D***S on 21 December 2025*

Does everything claimed for it. Really nice, **USEFUL* acoustic setting(s) for gigging and recording. Sweet EVH tone emulation that just works. Software installed and functions flawlessly. the only "downside" is that no matter how much of a gear geek you may be, you need hours and hours to explore to dive into what this little bugger can do! Really, she's the prefect balance of lots of useable tones by default combined with deep and rich ability to alter them. Bravo; this is what guitar amps are supposed to be
