This Foxgear unit is a clever little box, offering a decent approximation of a British amp stack. It's great for bedroom players or anyone needing a portable, affordable recording solution, but don't expect it to replace a high-end tube amp – it's a convincingly voiced emulator, not the real deal.

Frequently Asked Questions
It's surprisingly usable; while not perfect, the variable control allows for some decent adjustments to the low-end and overall presence.
