I have a peavy transtube 112 efx(witch im tradin in to get the 212), the distortion is a little ifffy (prob should get a diff tube), but does sound good if you use a distortion pedal, i use a digitech grunge pedal and it sounds great, the clean channel is pretty clear too. Its also packed with a lot of effects. Its like 430 but deff worth the money. Has a headphone jack to, no ex speak jack though(thats why 212) and it comes with a pedal,too.
