Fender Squier sp.10 Amplifier

The Fender Squier amplifier is a beginner practice amp the ranges on the internet from 20 to 80 dollars. The amplifiers size is about 10 by 10 inches leaving a little larger in size than the Honey Tone amp. As far as the customization the amp offers, volume, treble, bass, and overdrive control. This is a little more in depth than the Honey Tone amp. In addition to the controls on the amp, the amp is a lot louder than the Honey Tone amp. It has very limited volume capabilities though as it is not quite loud enough to play live with a band. This amplifier is a basic tube amp, this means that they are built in good quality and will last a good amount of time. The only down side to the tube amp is it doesnt have effects to acompany the sound. This would require the player to spend hundreds of dollars on other effect pedals that they wanted. The Amplifier also offers a head phone jack but with the plug in of a guitar cable. This was popular back then and would be a little harder to use in modern times. Overall the amp is a reliable and decent in sound. It offers a soft sound as well as a hard rock sound that would relate to a wide variety of players. It does have its few con’s but are very minor and are outweighed by the pro’s.
