ok im pretty limited on cash right now ( just bought a new guitar, ibanez s520ex mgf, its great! + another year of college, its pretty expensive

) and i just cant stand my fender fm212r anymore, its just not good for metal...

so i want something relatively cheap, but with good distortion... and someone told me to check this out:

ive heard from couple of people that its probably the best thing for metal, for the price of 500$ ...

so, anyone here on pbb ever tryed it? how good is it?

sounds good, but you'll get drowned out if you jam with some that rocks a tube

I wouldn't suggest them, they dont have any balls, especially anything lower than 250 watts...for $100 more you can a G3 series amp, which Randall fixed a lot of bugs from the previous G2 series..

Keep in mind, there's a reason why that line was discontinued...

Same here. I paid 680.

And anyway, don't do it. Don't go for a cheap Randall solid state head. You can snag a 5150 block letter (or XXX if you're lucky) for 600 bucks or so, which is 100000x better.
