Gotta side with Axe here. I have a the MG250DFX and absolutely love it. Had a problem with the fan, had it fixed over the year ago but no problems since. Sure, it's not as good as a tube amp, I expected that, but it's a great deal for the price if you ask me. I would definitely recommend it. BTW, I played one of the smaller MGs (MG50 I think). Anyway, I thought that was crap. I don't know...maybe it's the smaller cab/speaker:dunno: but it didn't sound half as good as the 250DFX.
