This arrived this week; purchased on your recommendation. You’ve never failed me in the past. Placed it with a Marshall 4X12. The headroom is Fantastic. The clean channel sings! Clarity and immense volume and presence. The dirty channel really did not impress me at all. Just wasn’t achieving a tone that I believed should be coming from the amp. Went back to the clean. Really enjoyable. The Reverb comes through great, although I prefer my TC Sky Surfer for Reverb that suits me. Placed my Marshall Bluesbreaker pedal in front of the amp, and my pedalboard through the effects loop. This is a game changer for Me! I got all the sound and tone that I use and like with this going through the clean channel. Dunno about the dirty channel. I will have to play around with it. The power is exceptional. The 100 watts truly gives you the sound that you Feel!!!… but for me, on the clean channel. Kinda lengthy, just wanted to give my honest opinion. Thanks Darrell.

Great review...great sound! I bought a SR 30 head with the 1x12 cab just about 2 years ago. $480. Can't beat it. It does have the full size chicken head knobs (so good there) but has that darned mirror back that makes it hard to read the knob's labels etc. so I created my own labels and placed just below the knobs. Some day I may just screen my own back and put it in there. Anyway, love the amp. I catch some crap from some amp snobs but even they admit it sounds great...even just the 30 watt!

Thanks Darrell!! One kind correction… The Stage Right SB20 you mentioned is actually a 50 watt tube amp, not a 20 watt. It is hard to figure why they chose to make the model name so confusing. I have an SB20 and it is a nice amp. I only use it for cleans. The distortion channel isn’t very good. But I always get my distortion from pedals anyway.

@Amp497

I have the 50 watt model. SB20. I do part time tech work, and I have examined the circuit board, transformers and tubes. The construction was just as good as Fender and other major brands. Time will tell regarding the transformers, although they seem to be adequate to me. They are big and heavy. The preamp tubes are JJ brand. The phase splitter tube is JAN GE, which is good, as the tube is constructed to military specs and is NOS. The outputs are not JJ as advertised, and not 6L6. They are apparently Russian military tubes, 5881. This means they are military spec, which is good. The amp sounds great, but I am expecting the usual problems found in all circuit board power amps in the future. I would wait until the hundred watt amp goes on sale. Monoprice has a tendency to really slash the price of their power amps. I got my $439 amp on sale for $259 with free shipping. They do this once a year to clear inventory.

I posted in the chat of a video review that was on RU-vid of the SB 20 explaining that I took it apart and examined and discovered it was put together just as well as any other current namebrand amplifier that’s made in China. I was told by another person in the chat that I was lying and didn’t know what I was talking about. Glad to see someone else knows what’s up.

Monoprice has some great amps. Goes to show you don't need to spend thousands of $$$$$ to get a descent sound. A buddy of mine has been gigging with his little 15 watt combo for years now and it sounds fantastic. This 100 is one I've been looking at, it has a ton of gain. Sounds great. Glad to see they made the eq section very useful. I've had amps where you turn the knobs with little audible difference. That can be frustrating when you spend a lot of money on a name brand amp like Marshall and it's barely useable if at all.

They have great guitars too. I have 5 lol. Their DLX PLUS line is where it's at. I have 4 of those. 3 LP-style and a Tele. And I just got their 335-style guitar last week and it's dang good too even though it's not a DLX Plus. The one in my avatar is one of theirs. It has an 18mm thick maple cap vs veneers on all of the competing models like Harley Benton & Epiphone. Set neck. Bound body & neck . Carved top. It's a fantastic guitar for wayyyyy less than an equivalent Epiphone.

So I’m going to do that, then sell it (fortunately it’s a very collectible amp, and I will not lose money). The other two will be sold within a couple years, before they too need new capacitors.

Lots of people still leave an amp at their practice/jamming space, where many do not have a PA, everyone just has their own rig. You could even use something like the tonex, or a quad cortex + poweramp to make a portable version of your jam space rig. Im pretty sure a lot of gigging musicians these days actually go a route like this. And until profiled rigs perfectly capture the feel and response of a rig (its getting spooky close, it wont be long), rather then just the sound, i feel like this will still be fairly common. I, as well as many other that have nothing bad to say at all about the sound of profiling solutions, (basically no one can tell them apart by sound samples alone, thats already astonishingly uncanny), still prefer the feel* of playing through a real valve amplifier, and in our jamming space, want the clean unboken headroom an amp like this provides (maybe your a pedal-hound, or just l;ike to use totally pristine cleans)

Hey dude, can you tell everything about it because our local shop with outdated website asked and yes, don't forget the pedal after washing your car. This is going to such an upgrade for your led TV. Let your SSD or CPU to pick up the sound, because tubes don't have a long lasting life. Bright is just like switching to a neck pickups, but I use those rarely. Go and find your safe bass/middle/treble combination for a perfect mood depending on a song you are listening to. Should have everything else to plug into this amp, could it be 20W is fine for your room.

The clean channel sounded nice, with all eq at 12 o'clock, it had a pleasing, balanced tone. Unfortunately, the gain channel sounded thin and "bee in a jam jar" buzzy. If the only way to approach an even barely acceptable tone is to cut almost all of the mids, there is something very wrong in the design of the tone stack

I was never able to use it to it's full potential. They were expensive then, but can be gotten really cheap today. Between it & the VC-12 pedal, the operator's manual is as thick as a friggin' phonebook! LOL

Bugera was in the same price range, and a lot of different used stuff can easily beat this price as well. But I don't have anything against this amp.

It does sound great. But when you're in the $650 plus tax realm you can get a Fender Bassman Silverface head. I'd probably go that route. Some good used stuff in that range.

Not sure people need a cheap 100w head anymore. If you're playing out in large enough venues to need one you'll spring for a better head. I have a Marshall Origin 20H. Gets a better crunch tone. Just gotta learn the proper settings. They aren't intuitive. First thing is to turn the treble all the way down and use the presence and tilt for treble. Plus it doesn't need to be biased and uses half the tubes. Loud enough for today's sound requirements..

I like the clean tone is really good. I am not a fan of the dirty channel. The Harley Benton Mighty 15TH what a great amp that one is from Thoman for $234 in the USA/

Sounds fine but pull the chassis and see how well it is NOT built. You are getting nothing more than what you paid for. Far better off spending more and getting more as it will serve you far better in the long run with reliability and repairability. A well built valve amp will not be cheap such as this example sorry as it's cheap for a reason.

I don't know how is going on the market on the USA but here in Italy people only want lite and portable tube amp, you can find a lot of secondhand amp at a super reasonable price. In this period I am looking for the Marshall Jvm 410, I think is a great deal at a price around 600/700 Euro

Just an opinion here: This sounded good to me until you went into bright mode with bridge pickups - then it became (to my ears) raspy, unpleasantly gritty. Otherwise, nice sounding for a big amp. Thanks for your reviews!!!!!

Pretty much $1000 with tax for Canadians if you get it from Amazon, and easily over $1000 from Monoprice themselves. Not what I would call cheap.

Darrel, does the amp have PCB's or is it PtoP wired? I guess for that it's gotta have PCB'S?

Be serious: "Pedal to the Metal!" I hear some other people spent thousands for a Marantz that may be was made with a spare single valve. I'm loving that everybody plays that Whitesnake thing but me, before the real you. Water still beats fire, ain't it?! Who hasn't put the phone on the folk type of, already?!

A Marshall and Fender in one head at a realistic price what's not to like? I mean seriously look at a like this it has more features than a Plexi and isn't a one trick pony. Add a tube screamer and a boost pedal and I bet it gets the heart pounding like you're at a Motley Crue concert. The best thing about it is the head isn't going to cost you close to 4k by itself. Add a 4x12 Greenback loaded slant cab, a modest pedalboard, and you are ready to pull off small venues. I do not harbor having to spend your life savings on equipment to sound good as a local gigging musician. The stage right and wangs amps have the ability to get you where you need to be. Just my opinion.
