This little amp was one of Fender's first offering int he world of DSP technology. This is the computer based amps that would use an multiple effects and the better bit rating for the effects. Today's DSP chips amps have a better processor and the ability to hook up to your computer and use the software to change you tone and settings. To me these amps are a little goofy and I just don't see the point. This amp is pretty cheap on the market and fizzled out quickly when it was first produced.

SOUNDS
The tone of this amp is not that great. The pure clean tone isn't that bad but when you add and type of distortion it gets fairly muddy and fizzy. he tone of the distortion is very fizzy sounding. Not at all appealing to the ears.
There are a lot of effects built into this amp like Reverb, Delay, Chorus, Flange, Tremolo. All of these effects sound pretty good and that isn't in question, the question I can seem to find answered is why does most Fender solid state amp's distortion play out to be not unusable. I mean the tone of the overdrive is just lousy and unusable. This amp is a big tonal let down, but not that the bar was set very high going into it.
OVERALL OPINION
The tone of this amp is a big pass as much as it is for the whole amp. This amp can be ha on the used market for well under $100. I have seen them for around $35 and people wouldn't even bid on them. So if you really need a lousy practice amp you can probably score this one for around $20. Not a bad pick up if you can get it for that price. I do not recommend this amp. If you need a decent practice amp then good Peavey Vypyr.
