I'm still delighted with it.

Some time this week I'm actually going to write a full review for the site.

Hello Harry, thanks for the review.

How do you feel about the V22, two months down the line?

I gotta admit I was leary at first but, for the price what could go wrong. I skipped over the v-22 and went str8 to the v-55. I've allways liked the 6L6's over the EL84's. I was not disapointed. This baby is a dream come true for the price. It is reminisant of the older Marshall Mark II's excelent clean sound with perfect compression (gotta love valves) It takes a bit getting used to. Took me about 5 days to get it tweaked. After that it was just a matter of getting back that old 60's - 70's feel again. So sweeeeeeeeeet. It is a little finicky when it comes to older foot pedels. With pwr supplys only. a.k.a. Yamaha GW-10 but i got it dialed in and workin titts"" I now refer to it as my little box of dynomite. Buy one you won't regret it. Anyone wanna buy a Bogner Alchemist. That way i can get 3 more of these babys. lol have a great day.... Sparky...

Hi Joe thanks for your comment. I'm sure the Fender is a great sounding amp - but I be the lack of master volume will really hurt it in terms of getting some dirt in your tones.

It's early days for me and the V22 and I'll be writing a full and detailed review in the near future. But so far this feels like a love affair. This amps tone and transparency belies the price.

Heck, it even makes my cheap Bullet Strat sound good - that's a miracle.

Great review. Right now I'm trying to decide between the V22 and the Fender Deluxe VM which is a 40W 112 all tube combo with some digital effects (reverb, delay, chorus) for added measure. The Fender is about twice the price of the V22 and lacks a couple of features of the V22 such as the master volume control which lets you get those really dirty tones at bedroom levels. I have a 70's music man 112 sixty-five which I love. Its a hybrid amp though so either the V22 or the Deluxe VM will be my first all tube amp.
