ZT Club 200-watt 1x12 Guitar Combo Amplifier Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I expect a lot out of my amps... and this amp has yet to let me down. As of this review's posting, I have run the following instruments into this amp: guitar, bass, vocals, synths, electric oud, digital tanpura, electric sitar, drums machines, digital piano, and a mp3 players. This amp has yet to let me down with delivering the goods. It's fallen off the stage, been kicked by people, bounced around the pack of a truck, sat on, stepped on... basically used and abused. Currently, mine has seen ~ 30 gigs, countless hours of rehearsals and yet continues to impress.
The amp is loud without being raspy or painful. It's a BIG sound when turned up - to be sure. A few gigs, where a PA was not available for all the amps, I ran the Club 12 at full throttle - no problems. The reverb has a natural sound to it too.
Overall, I'm very happy and impressed with this amp. Highly recommended for musicians of all types.

I like it a lot... For not having to have a generator/soundboard/speaker outdoor sound system, this is a great alternative. Sounds great and easy to use.

Roland AC-33 Acoustic Chorus Combo Amp Review

When I felt how light this amp is, I wasn't expecting much, but once plugged in, I was delighted by the clarity and lack of noise or distortion of this little treasure. The chorus, which I didn't expect to use (being an acoustic purist) is absolutely gorgeous and will be used on some pieces. The reverb, too, is very natural sounding.
If the amp didn't have a looper, I would still have bought it, but I was also surprised and impressed by the looper's quality. The automatic start has zero latency, and the sound is exactly what you hear from the amp in normal mode. It will be fun to use this for improvised layering on gigs. I'm buying a double foot pedal on e-bay: this is essential for live use, or any time you have a guitar in your hands.
I bought this device because I sometimes need to play outdoors, away from power: I haven't yet tried it with batteries, so I can't comment on its abilities in this direction: apparently the power (thus, volume) is less, but I suspect there isn't a powerful battery-powered amp out there, and this will probably be adequate.
I connected the 'line out' to an ESV powered speaker, and together these units make a gorgeous sound for solo acoustic playing. Easy to set up, light to carry, and superb sound!
It would be nice if the full range of controls could be used with the 'i-pod in' feed, but I guess I can always get an adapter/connector to allow me to do this.
I have had the amp for one week so far...

AGA70 Acoustic Guitar Amplifier Review

AGA70 Acoustic Guitar Amplifier
Average Reviews:

I can only guess that the newness of this product accounts for the relative lack of online reviews at this time. Although I have been impressed with the relatively inexpensive Crate acoustic guitar amps, I'm doubtful that you can find a better sub-$500 acoustic amp than the Vox AGA70. There is ample tone control on each of the two channels, via 3-band EQ and an additional "Color" knob. One of the two channels contains a tube pre, which provides additional warmth to either guitar or vocal. The 70-watt capacity with 6.5" driver provides enough sound for many of the smaller venues I play; if not, the DI on the back allows for output to the soundboard. My workhorse acoustic guitar, which has an older and not-so-impressive under-the-bridge pickup, never sounded as good "plugged up" as when ran into this amplifier. My only complaints, still minimal, are the complete lack of vintage appearance (except for chickenhead knobs) and the use of a softer cloth grill rather than a hard grill. Without an accessory cover, I'm not sure how long this will hold up through regular loading and unloading.

Genz Benz Shenandoah SHEN-60LT 60-Watt Acoustic Guitar Amplifier Review

I've owned and gigged with one of these for several years. Its clarity and presence are truly remarkable, both from its own speakers and via its XLR direct outs. I've recorded with it direct to the board and its silence is SILENT. Musicians swoon when they try it, it seems few have heard that Genz Benz isn't just a builder of amazing bass amps any more.
Check this one out closely.

Well.... You have probably heard a lot about ZT amps already right? This one(Lunchbox Acoustic)lives up to the ZT name and delivers! I tried it out with my brother, he was on guitar, I was singing. It was crankin'. We didn't have a drummer around at the time, but I think the volume would of been plenty loud enough to compete with your average drummer. No problem. The controls are straight forward and very usable. A lot of options on this little thing! Phantom power! Sweet! Reverb on both channels....etc...etc... I have talked to people who have said with a bigger speaker this amp really cranks! I have yet to try it, but with it's built-in 6.5" speaker I have no complaints! The portability factor alone is awesome! One thing I did notice, if you want a super clean sound, crank the gain up really loud and then use the volume for the overall "volume" of sound. This is an awesome amp!

This amp will not blow away a quality amp with a bigger speaker.
But, for a 9 lb amp, it's remarkable.
Out of the box, it is very dry and even a little harsh sounding, but, with some outboard reverb and EQ, it can sound quite good. It retains its sound quality at high volume (I played it with keys, bass and drums and had no problem with volume). You forget how small the thing is.
I rated it 4 stars because there are better sounding amps (although they are bigger) and because it requires outboard FX to sound good at all.
