Hi all,
i have the opportunity to purchase a new lil rock 5 watt amp for US$189.
I don't know if any of you ar familiar with it, but here is a demo of it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6q1jbCnv7LA
Im currently just playing through a solidstate ashdown amp and play mainly blues and rock.
just curious if this would be something that you would pull the trigger on and buy?

Would, looks a well thought out amp. Be interesting to see the insides.

Not overy in love with the high gain sound, but the low gain sounds really good.

I'm no expert on amps but I'm very happy with the vht special 6. Just put a big muff in front along with a blues driver, very nice.

Although, the above amps are all good, I would get a Fender Vibro Champ xd or assemble one if I had the $$.

I am in no way affiliated with Fender or it's associates.

Just giving Fender a shout out.
