I bought a GTX100 about a month ago.

I think it's a great amp, and I'm loving it.

I don't gig out, so I only use it at home.

The versitility of tones is great, and the looper is a lot of fun.

I chose to get a 10" Android tablet to control the amp from my music stand. The only heads up I can give is that the Fender Tone app is not compatible with all Android tablets, including many brand new Android 9.0 tablets.

If you're going to go with a tablet, do some research first to try and make sure the app will run on that tablet.

BTW, the issue is with the app, not the tablet. Fender states that there are too many Android versions on too many different brand devices, and they have not expanded the apps compatibility past a short list of major brand names. Check out their website for that list. However, be aware that others have used other brands of tablets successfully, but a lot of tablets don't run the app either.
