Joyo BanTamP XL Jackman II

If you're after warm British tones with limited budget, this could be for you. It has surprisingly nice Marshall-ish (not necessarily a jcm) dirty sound. I bought it for practicing so I could spare my 100 watt head's tubes but I found myself using and enjoying this one as much as my main amp.

Features:
-FX loop, 2 channels, footswitch included; these features are impossible to find at this price range. It handles my pedals nicely, loud enough for my purposes, maybe even too loud for that (home practice). Fits in my backpacks, weights nothing, can drive 8 ohm cabs like a champ (loses a bit of volume when connected to 16 ohm).

The bad:
-Makes a loud pop noise when opened or when you hit the channel switch.

Good to mention:
-Sounds bad when used with headphones out.
-Bluetooth feature looks handy but often useless in reality. Guitar speakers are not full range speakers so dont expect your music to sound good when you're jamming with it. However you can still connect a metronome or drums/guitars only backing tracks.
-It’s a low gain amp. Requires an overdrive pedal in front to achieve at least 80s heavy metal sound. For modern metal check joyo zombie etc.
-Having only one tone control will limit you.
-Clean sound is just meh in my opinion.
-Weak bass response

But again, except the annoying popping noise these are quite normal things for a very small practice amp with this price. Thats why I dont count them as 'the bad'

Also, I only used with good cabs (engl 212/v30, peavey 212/greenbacks) so my experience with this amp is heavily influenced by it. I previously ordered and then returned marshall dsl1 and blackstar ht1 heads. I really liked dsl1 but it only had 16ohm out and Blackstar was extremely boomy with my cab. Joyo in the other hand covered all my needs with only half price.

Conclusion: I'd rate 4.8/5 comparing to the similar (even more) priced heads. I'm now thinking to buy another jackman for stereo setup.
