A Great little amp from Crate, the Flexwave

The Crate FlexWave FW15R Guitar Amp Combo is an excellent example of a high quality practice amp. Crate has been known to add new twists to classic hardware and they keep doing so with this amp. Although little in stature, the Crate FlexWave does that. With so many changes and differentiations in such a tiny package, it effectively transforms itself from a practice amp to a small performance amp.

Features and specifications:

- Power: 15 watts
- 12" speaker
- Distortion and Clean
- Headphone Input
- CD or MP3 player audio input jack
- Weighs 27 lbs.
- Built-in three-band EQ
- Evolution 5 preamp, which allows for clear and sharp audio output quality
- Channel tracking feature, which recalls your settings and preferences between channels

The positives

- You want a practice amp that will actually be used in smaller gigs "either in smaller performances, an audition or gigs in confined spaces.
- You want a practice amp that lets you have different distortion settings between channels and can actually remember your preferences when switching.
- You need a practice amp that goes with the kind of music that you like "rock and Randamp;B would go well with this bass-heavy practice amp.
- You find yourself shuffling forwards and backwards between audition halls, your room (for more practicing), impromptu performances or small, corporate gigs. Then this practice amp would be your all-in-one best mate to take around with you wherever you go.
- You need a crossover practice amp that will not disappoint you during a series of intensive auditions and performances.
- You would like a practice amp that can also be used as your mp3 or CD player and can even allow you to jam silently with the headphone jack.

Consider another sort of amplifier if

You are not hot for the heavy-bass sound since this amplifier tends to add more base to its audio output.

You want an even smaller practice amp that will literally fit in your messenger or body bag.

You simply wish to have a basic, easy amplifier you can simply bring with you wherever you go (and you want it to be a bit less expensive, too).

You need a lighter practice amp since you will be walking around almost all of the time and donand#39;t have the advantage of having an automobile trunk to stow almost all of your things in.
