Light weight, solid build, only bass, treble, volume and gain, which is exactly why i love vox...the simplicity, it works great with boost effects(if you're into that stuff) Considering it's only 4 watt amp i was amazed by how loud it is. I don't know if its loud enough for playing gigs ( maybe if you connect it to a bigger cab) , but then again, i bought it for home use. My personal opinion on price: worth every cent. All in all I'm very pleased with this one. Would definitely recomend for home use.
