Most people are surprised how good my 1985 SS Fender Montreaux (Rivera) sounds. The clean channel is amazing, the "drive" channel needs some coaxing, but has a pretty intensive eq section. Reverb is nice, and can be adjusted on each channel, along with an assignable effects loop.

A buddy gave it too me because he was moving his shop and the amp had been sitting in his inventory for about 3 years. I gave him $50 just for his trouble, and it's about the best money I've ever spent.

YMMV.
