how's the amplification. Does it sound good when played extremely loud

It sounds as good thru my amp...... Quality of amp will determine the sound you get at loud volumes it has worked great for me

It sounds very good but do not turn the volume up to much or you get to much feed back. But it is a great amp for the money. I am look at a gibson guitarto see what it would sound like. Good luck.

It depends on the gig; I've used it live for small clubs (less than 30 people, smallish room) and it works great. It gets surprisingly loud! For a bigger show you would probably be mic'd anyway, at least in my area so it would be fine for that as well. These days, if you show up with a larger amp you probably won't be able to turn it up enough to work the amp at all and it won't sound good anyway.

It is about the same as playing an electric guitar un-amped, you can hear it if you in a quite room. I bought mine to play at work without annoying anyone while I practice. I now use a VoX adapter and head phones because it is too quite and I found myself digging in too much in order to hear it un-amped.

I don't own this amp anymore...if loud is what you are wanting this is it...and mine was crystal clear just more than I needed...and it does seem they had a lil glow, never really fooled with it after dark, everyone was in bed

Believe me, it plays plenty loud without distortion. Make sure you properly place it in the room and the bass response will be fine.

Hi, This is my husbands, so I asked him. He says it has good bass, and goes deep and it has no distortion. Hope this helps.

Pretty loud. You could definitely gig out solo or have enough sound to keep up at a practice with a full band (if they weren't turned up all the way). Surprisingly loud.

Yes, I have the same model and it amplifies it about 3 times my opinion and the bass is insane with it!

The clean tone is very good and can sound just like an acoustic guitar being amplified, so that is what I like, but I mainly use the metal and insane channels, and they are very good as well. This is a really good amp.

well I have had mine for over a year now and it still screams like bran new. the noise gate feature is a joke but it dont take away from the awesome sound that comes from this amp. I dont even use distortion pedals anymore. the sound that comes from this amp is amazing.

There are slight discolorations but overall the amp looks pretty cool. What's under the hood really it's what counts. I use it as a pre amp to my amp and it thanks my Klipsch horns sound amazing from an iPad.

High volume is going to be subjective, of course, and since I'm in an apartment, I'm not one to push too much. What I can say is that with the amp at 5 W, volume at 10, gain at 1, and with a Strat almost all the way up, it's pretty clean. If I use an LP clone with more signal, there's more crunch. So signal in affects the crunch and of course the volume. I've gotten clean sounds with this, but it's a balance between the signal in, the gain, and the volume. All that said, it is NOT an Fender Twin.

When you say bad, I'm assuming you mean; amazing.It's amazing around 2.1K to 2.3KIt's the only music I listen to unless I'm standing still. But you'll need a V8 to be impressed.

Just saw this question today. Sorry for my delay in responding. It sounds very good unplugged. In fact, that's the way I play mine all the time. I bought it to take camping because it was of high quality for a low price and with the thinline body style and gig bag, it takes up a lot less space than a regular body acoustic in a hard shell case. I have other much more expensive guitars that I play when performing amplified, so I play this one unamplified nearly 100% of the time. It won't be quite as loud acoustically as a full size body, but sometimes that can be a good thing! :)

the clean channel sounds really good. I was happy with the distortion channel once I got the knack of dialing tones in. The amp is pretty loud alone. If you are using processor like Digitech or whatever, it really increases the volume. I no longer use this amp, it was just too loud for my needs, so I downsized to a 15 watt Marshall MG15CFX. I'll get around to reviewing that one of these days.

I have some music that includes swelling thunder and even at higher volumes I heard nothing that wasn't already there. Mind that my only source has been my ipod touch. And I am using a very good set of Audio-Technica headphones. I have had to adjust the gain and the equalizer settings to some music. But not very often. This is a very clean amplifier.
