Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I loved this thing when I got it. Powerful enough to practice in a decent-size room, all the knobs you need, it's adorable and seems durable. Then a week later, there's the sound of something clattering around inside the box. I'm an electronics person, so I went to open it up- and oh wow. Inside the box, the speaker is held onto the front by a few cheap metal clips screwed into the plastic. These screws are not properly placed so if you move this unit around at all you will eventually break the speaker free and it'll beat around the inside with 4 sharp metal screws stuck to the magnet on the speaker. Beautiful, right? It hurts the sound quality when the speaker is rattling around loosely. It's difficult to reattach the speaker, because the screws broke off the plastic they were embedded into. You'd have to glue it in place since the screws won't hold. The rest of the unit? Oy. There are loose wires covered in hot glue trying to make sure the loose screws won't short something. If I didn't know any better I'd think this was a 1980s Chinese bodge job trying to rip off a real American brand. A few months later, and miniscule movements of the cords cause cracking and popping because the innards are working loose. I'm tossing this unit and upgrading to something that's built correctly inside. If you really need a dirt-cheap unit, get someone who knows what they're doing to crack it open and cover the innards with more hot glue to hold everything in place- especially the speaker.
