Apollo P5
Beautiful little amp, with a "clean tone" that really is "incomparable", true to it's "Vintage" heritage gives of it's "best" to the modern day guitarist ... I'm serious when I say you shouldn't just stop at buying one !

Fantastic Amp
Just a great sounding amp. Every guitar I've plugged in to it sounds good. Very quick to start breaking up, especially with humbuckers. Responds really well to changes in the guitar's volume and tone controls. A very quiet amp, very little noise, even with single coils. Everything about the construction is high quality. The tweed covering on the cabinet seems to be flawless. The handle is nice thick leather. The on switch even makes a nice "thunk" sound when you turn it on. It was packed really well when I got it. The inside of the cabinet was packed with plenty of paper, so that the valves/tubes wouldn't move around during transit. After I had taken it out of the packing and the packing out of it, I was able to plug it straight in, and it was good to go.
