Re: Fender G-Dec / Marshall MG-15
I would, or wouldn'r, reccomend the GDEC- depending on what you're looking for. If you want a GUITAR amp, look elsewhere. It's not an AMP. It's an EMULATION of an amp. It's got a hi-fi speaker. It's sounds like your guitar, played thru your amp, then through a radio. It's a neat TOY, or maybe TOOL would be a better word, but I just A/B'ed the GDEC and the Vox DA5 at my house for a week, and the DA5 is a REAL guitar amp. Sounds like one, feels like one. The GDEC, while really fun to play WITH, with all the amp models, doesn't sound or feel like an amp. But if having very simple backing tracks onboard is something you're looking for, the GDEC is the way to go, and you can't beat $150.
I wanted an AMP- a very small, modeling, with effects, AMP that I could haul on vacation & also to play quietly at home when others are sleeping (can't do that with my Peavey Classic 50). I love the little thing. It's takes what Roland did with the Microcube & improves on it.
