I've got a chance to snag one of these for a pretty good deal.
Its the 50 watt 1x12 combo, I played it yesterday and I really liked it.
The clips online are less than inspiring though :thumbsdown:

What do you guys think of this amp?
Anyone here own one?

Jordan :rock:
 
I had a Twintone II head, and I am very familiar with what it offers. I recently heavily modded one for a friend.

Stock, the amp is kinda average, really good clean channel, but the drive channels are generic and unfocused. Could work very good in a context where you don't need your guitar to stand out, like a cover band or something like that.

The features are very nice, not many amps pack that much in a such compact form. The build quality is also incredible, one of the best I've seen. These are the things that sold me on the amp in the first place.

I did some mods to the drive channels and it's much better now. I wouldn't buy a stock one unless I got a really good deal, and even so I would probably consider some other options.

This. Quality is topnotch, but they do sound generic.
 
I own one too, it sounds great, especially the clean channel, add a MXR eq and it can take you to places. I don't know why people don't talk about it that much, it's a great amp for its price. 50W is definitely loud enough.
 
I have a Multitone loaded with 6V6s, it came with EL34s but the tone was kinda bright. The 6V6s are more organic and musical IMO. I can get great crunch and high gain tones. Haven't messed with the clean channel much 'cause lately I've been getting into using the guitar's volume control to get a clean/cleanish sound. The footswitchable Rhythm volume control is a cool feature too, kinda like having a built in boost.

Hi!
I know your post is a bit older. But I am about to mod my TT II Head. I love the cleans, not really satisfied with the OD/OD+.
Would you like to share the mods you did?

Greetings from Germany
