Fender Stage 112SE
URL: http://www.fender.com
Price Paid: US $225 used

Features: 9/10

Solid state 1X12 combo. Whopping 160Watts output with an extension cab. Fender tone. Fx loop, line out, 2 buttong footswitch for Reverb.fx and Chanels. Kickin cleansound and great distortion. I'm not a fan of DSP on an amp as its usually not that great and just gums up the Control Panel.

I gave this amp a 9 on features cause it has it where it counts. Everything you need in a Solid State and you get that great Fender tone.

Sound Quality: 8

I'm playing an Epiphone Del Rey and a Fender AS Strat through this and they sound wonderful. I play mostly Alternative to blues type rock and this suits them fine. The amp has a wonderfully smooth clean tone on low volume settings (low being relative.) but is kind of harsh once it gets past 7 on the dial. The distortion is killer. With the Gain and Contour dial you can get everything from bluesy OD And AC/DC distortion to high gain Creed type distortion. Distortion probably not good for death metal freaks. The amp sounds clean except for some slight vibration at louder settings (Or maybe thats my house.) Oh did anyone mention its LOUD LOUD LOUD.

Its actually loud to a fault. I had to fiddle with it for 5 minutes to get it to a nighttime volume. Overall it has a great sound but dont expect it to be a tube amp. IT IS SS!!! DO NOT COMPARE APPLES AND ORANGES!!

Reliability: 9

Amp is in good solid condition. Upon inspection everything looks solid and good to go. I would gig without a backup if no backup was availible. its just foolish to gig without any backup no matter how solid something is.

Customer Support: N/A Never dealt with em!

Overall Rating: 9

I've been playing for about 5 years and have played alot of gear (not neccesarily owned.) I own and Epiphone Del Rey, Fender AS Strat, Vox Pathfinder, and now this. I run it all through a Digitech RP7ax12 FX processor. I've played through alot of Crate, Vox, Marshall, and Peavey Solid States and this one really hangs at the top with tone. Again, for all the tube snobs out there, dont expect it to be a tube amp. It sound awesome for what it is and it dont break the bank like a tube.

If this were stolen I would definately buy it again (If I couldnt hear it and track it down that is.). It sounds great on its own and rock out when hooked to a 2 or 4X12 cab.

I love the Reverb on this thing, its simple to set and oh so sweet! I also like the dual inputs as it saves space when singing through a mic. I only use the distortion on my ped when running a mic through it, otherwise the distortion is better on the amp.

I HATE that there is not a headphone jack, it makes this a daytime ONLY pratice amp.

It would be nicer as a 2 x 12 combo but that would just drive up the price. If you find one of these for under $300 then go for it! Its well worth that price and a little more.
