This is another amp modeler. These amp modelers have been the latest craze in the amp world. Every manufacturer has at least one amp modeling unit out there and some have several. Vox is one that has multiple for just about every size and every watt you can think of. I personally hate these things. They sound terrible at best. However for the kid just starting out with the guitar they are very easy and comfortable.

SOUNDS
There is an assortment of different tones you can get from this little amp. The good thing about it is that you have a tube preamp and it gives you somewhat of that feel and tone of a real amp. The unfortunately the thing is..its not a real amp. Though it has a tube in it, it will never have an authentic tube amp sound or feel. Essentially it is a step up from the all digital amp modeling which sounds as terrible as it can get.
No matter what guitar you throw in front of it it will give you the sound you are going for. So for instance if you want a Metallica sound you get a humbucker guitar and you set it to the metal setting. If you want a country tone then you would use the Cali clean or Us blues setting with a Strat or a Tele. It is pretty easy and will get you the idea of what you are looking for but won't give an authentic tone.
OVERALL OPINION
At new they come in at around $379 which isn't bad price for some soccer mom to plunge on their guitar playing adolescent. If you are used to playing real amps you will be disappointed with this.Not going to be an amp for someone who has been playing for a long time. If you are new to the guitar then this would be right up your alley.
Amp modeling has gotten very popular these days with so much music out there and not one amp can do all of it. So for those exploring their abilities and skills, something like this would suit a beginner.
