Monoprice 1x10 Guitar Combo Amplifier - Black, 40-Watt, Spring Reverb, 10-Inch 4-Ohm Speaker, High & Low Inputs, Headphone Output - Stage Right Series

The Monoprice Stage Right 40 watt amp was everything I expected for a $99 amp and a bit more. It has a great sound for the price point. It seems to be well-made. The overdrive/distortion is reasonably good but since I have four pedals it's kinda academic. I was able to turn it up pretty high in clean-tone (without pedals) before breaking up some. Again, for the price, a great loud/good tone practice amp. The spring reverb works pretty well and can be well-controlled-it sounds a heck of a lot better than another amp I once had that created it electronically. A minor peeve: I can hear a teeny bit of reverb in whatever I'm playing with the reverb turned off. I'm running two of my pedals straight into the high input jack and the other two (an equalizer and pre-amp/tube modeler) into the Fx send and return jacks. That really cleaned up and sharpened the total sound. The other two pedals are compress/sustain and a morpher. I then ran a line out to a 15 watt Fender amp to split out some of the bass separately. The MP SR amp drives the smaller amp very well with no issues. I hear just a smidgen of hiss at low volumes with or without the Fender amp. The Fender had zero hiss on its own. Overall, I'm very satisfied. Monoprice: consider adding an XLR input and output. I think people would pay a bit more for that feature. Update 11-21-2021: I'm still loving it. I see the price has gone up (hasn't everything?) but it would still be great at that price. Lots of learning curve for two months has ironed out a bunch of sound issues that weren't this amp's fault (like maybe my playing.) The fx circuit and spring reverb (I stopped noticing the slight reverb with the control turned down, or maybe it healed itself) are worth the price! I'm considering a Celestion or other speaker upgrade down the road. Moving pedals around and doing different things with line in/out took care of a bit of the hiss. It's now liveable. You cannot go wrong!

This has been a great practice amp. I also use it on stage at my church where I run the headphone out into my iRig for additional effects and noise suppression. Without any sort of noise filter, the amp tends to feed a lot of noise into the PA system, which isn’t good with the in ear monitors. If I had the option, it would probably work better to have the iRig on the built in effects loop on the amp and use a microphone in front of the amp for the PA system (maybe someday I’ll see if the AV team will try that). For practice, I love having the built-in FX loop - lets me experiment with lots of different set-ups for tone. I also like the built-in spring reverb. It sounds fine on it’s own, and gives me another layer of analog vs digital tone shaping to play with.

I like the equalization options and the overdrive was a nice touch. You can crank it to 11. It is full of input/output ports galore, which is was why I got it. There's a ton you can do with it. The volume is good it can get very loud, but the sound easily becomes too muddled. It's like it has a low quality speaker that can't handle the power. What gives? Seriously, it's a starter amp type sound, which was disappointing. For example, the bass isn't powerful but more just "muffles" the sound than deliver any bass. For that, I' just go to my Vypyr and get loud but professional amp sounds. At best, if you play metal, to get good sound you'll have to tweak away at fx pedals to help balance it out. It will take some work to make it somewhat passable. However, the low input wss particularly awesome. The sounds are more subdued, cleaner, and handles better at high volume. The high input can get raspy, in contrast. Pretty cool. Separately, as an amp for other things, it's a good deal. I can easily plug in one of my keyboards while feeding in recordings or a mic, or other instrument, and feed it out into another amp if I wanted. Amp is good size and not too heavy, seems sturdy. Notably mesh over speakers seems wavy cheap. Someone mwntiomed their's caught smoke. I smelt something but it wasnt hot but more of new amp smell breaking it in. If that changes I'll update review. Overall, good deal for price, but too bad speaker quality wasn,'t better, but just maybe my opinion, my snazzy Peavey amp might have spoiled me.

If this amp had Vox or Fender on the faceplate it would get a lot more love online. It easily outclasses the now discontinued Pathfinder 15 or the Frontman 25. More power, real spring reverb, effects loop and reasonable price all make this a better choice than hunting down a used version of the name brand amps. Just be sure to break in the speaker before passing judgement on the sound. Mine needed about 25 hours of transient heavy music into the auxiliary input to smooth out. After maybe 5 hours of Return To Forever, Junior Brown and Emerson, Lake and Palmer I could hear a marked improvement. Be patient. For such a cheap amp this is a very capable piece of gear. It's a 10 inch speaker in a small cabinet, so forget about heavy metal chugging. And note that this is the newer model with the single input, not the older high and low version. The one input is not a problem. I have used single coils, P-90s, humbuckers, piezos and even the faux Ricky toasters into this amp with very good results. If you can't get a decent sound out of this amp it's not the amp's fault, it's your expectations.

يرجى الإنتباه لمدخل الكهرباء لأنه وصلني بخط 110 ڤولت وقمت بإرجاعه منذ شهر وللآن لم أتلقى قيمته لا أنصح بالتعامل مع البائع

Llegó un día antes de la fecha estimada, bien embalado, y todo en orden, su sonido es muy bueno fiel y potente, sí es funcional para escenarios pequeños, ampliamente recomendable, ahora sólo espero qué sea muy durable y tenga una larga vida ..!

Although I haven't used it more than maybe 10 hours in total, I can comment on a few things. First of all, the sound is excellent and the speaker is very powerful. It's easy to customize your own sound and the added reverb effect is a nice bonus. Construction and fit/finish are not "perfect", but that's about the only problem I have with the amp. There were extra import charges for bringing an item this large into Canada, which was not made clear to me when I purchased it. However, this is an excellent product at a fraction of the price you'd pay for the competition. Highly recommended.

works great

La verdad por el precio me sorprendió bastante, la distorsión no es muy buena, pero si tienes pedales se defiende bastante bien. La potencia es perfecta para ensayos en lugares cerrados, y perfectamente se escucha aún con un baterista muy ruidoso.
