I still get my Fender like cleans but have a much broader range of distortion I can tap into. This, of course, is my opinion. Different strokes and all

The built in chorus is legendary, it can be heard on many famous songs, some reggae (Sublime to Bob Marley) and some get very heavy (Metallica). The distortion should be called "drive" or "boost", it helps boost my tube screamer but that's about all. If you use more pedals and do not use a looper I could see how it would take some tone out. Look into a solid programmable looper if you have 6-8 or more pedals

I play at home in a small converted bedroom. With the exception of the wattage it had all the features I wanted. I would've been happy with 15 watts, I'm sure, but I wanted the preamp in-out and two channels.

Oh, and also, each channel has a "bright" switch which I normally leave off since it gets way too "trebley" for my tastes. -Ed Caggiani, Translator ofTracks and Horizons: 26 Countries on a Motorcycle
