Fender Frontman 212R Electric Guitar Amplifier Review

Fender Frontman 212R Electric Guitar Amplifier

I've had my Fender FM212R for about a year now. Before this, I had a Roland Cube-15 practice amp, but after joining a band and becoming the lead guitarist, I realised I needed something more powerful for gigging and jamming with the rest of the band. I looked at Marshall, Vox or even getting a larger Roland, but then my prayers were answered with the Fender FM212R.
I got mine for about $550AU, which is cheaper than most going retail around here. It's 100watts, affordable and has a lot of firepower.
The Good:
Being 100watts, it has huge volume. I've gigged at clubs and pubs never needing to put the volume knob over 2.
The clean channel sounds great!
It has a reverb control on it that gives some great sound too.
It's affordable for the careful-spending musician
It's a Fender
The Bad:
The Footswitch on mine broke a couple months after purchase, which was annoying, although I normally use effect pedals anyway
You might find yourself fidgetting with the distortion channel for long amounts of time, trying to find a halfway decent setting
I would definitely recommend this amp if you're looking for something that packs a punch with volume but you don't want to spend thousands of dollars. It's great both for practice and for gigging.

Pyle-Pro - 20 Watt Portable Guitar Amplifier Review

It's my first and only amp. I play violin and it works fine on my electric violin. It's not big, packs enough power for practice without head phones, or to let others hear what you are playing. Price for the amp was good, but ouch, the shipping costs.
The unit looks good, is small and easy to carry. I haven't tried hooking a CD palyer into it yet. I can turn it up loud enough for it to be heard outside (through the walls). I have no idea how it would work on a guitar. My electric violin has a preamp, with a piezo pickup.
It may not work much better than the cheaper Danelectric, but it does look nicer.

Keep it simple and sounding great with this portable guitar amplifier from Pyle Pro. The 20-watt amp has a 3-band EQ with treble, mid, and high controls to get the exact sound you want. Strum it original or hit the overdrive for that crunchy hard rock sound. This 6.5" speaker runs on 110 or 220 V AC.
