RaSTuS Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Looks to be a pretty good SS amp going by the specs. How does it sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordy01 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 One of my friends has a Crate acoustic amp, and it is very nice. Nice clean warm tones. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxman Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I got that for a Christmas present last year. First month or so that I had it, I hated it. I thought, thank God I didn't buy this myself. Then I just tried some of my electrics in it. Wow! There was a warmth and body to the sound that was instantaneous. Plus all those neat little effects. Man, I started to fall in love with her. Went back to trying my acoustics in her...and suddenly fell in love again. It takes some tweaking with acoustics (particularly with an Ovation that has its own onboard EQ), but eventually you will come upon a nice tone. The amp is a winner. It is one of my favorite pieces of equipment. When I want to quickly play any guitar (electric or acoustic) this is my go to amp. I love the reverb settings, I love the Chorus/Hall effect. A little gem that is out there for a really cheap price. I wish all products delivered what this little guy does. You've got yourself a winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLesPaul2006 Posted May 31, 2009 Author Share Posted May 31, 2009 Looks to be a pretty good SS amp going by the specs. How does it sound. It is a nice little amp and for $150 it was a deal. I like the sound but as BeatleNut says it takes a little tweaking to get the sound I want but it is not hard to find a good tone with either of my acoustics. I like that it has a simple control panel. I will be using it when playing with my cousin who has an Fender Acoustasonic. I do not claim that it will be as nice as the Fender but I don't feel that the Crate would sound like crap in comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
