Crate Review: GX-15

Crate Guitar Amplifiers



History:

Purchase: This is my first guitar amplifier. I bought this amp at Musician's Friend for $80. I searched for an amp not too big.

What I Like About This Crate GX-15: It's very light and pretty much portable. I carry it around and jam with my friends with it. It can get pretty distorted. The clean channel is good. You can set your low's, mid's, and high's and get a lot of different sounds. It's a good practice amp, where you can play it at night and not disturb the neighbors.

What I Do NOT Like About The Crate GX-15: Too much feedback, after volume 4. I can't really level with my drummer with it. Well, what do you expect from a small 12 watt amp?

Crate GX-15 Quality Rating: Excellent construction. I dropped it many times on concrete floor,..not a scratch! It is very durable.



Review Summary: Need a small, compact practice amp? Don't wanna disturb the neighbors? Got a tight budget? Well this is the amp for you. You play in a band? You do small gigs? Don't bother. www.geocities.com/erad_rocks

Crate GLX-30 - The GLX-30 is a good beginners amp, but is very pricey. If you want a louder one, look elsewhere. The effects are pretty sweet, but don't make up for this amp's inability to crank up the volume before loosing sound quality....

Crate G1600XL Half Stack - This amp is great, there is no need in spending those thousands of dollars on those Mesa's and Marshall's. This is the amp for you, I have new found trust in Crate as amp producers. They have gained my trust. I always wanted those big Marshall stacks...

Crate Electra - Bottom line is if you are not a beginner, then don't bother. Go with something else if you are an intermediate or above....

Crate GLX 1200H Head - If you aren't a serious musician who is playing actual shows, than don't worry about this amp. If you are a serious musican in a band who is playing shows then this half stack is a must have. The reason I wouldn't trade my 900 dollar crate half stack...
