I use the older version, the T100, which I believe is the same amp except the presence controls are on the back rather than the face. I have used it in jazz gigs where I ran some very efficient cabinets from each 50-watt channel. It was just enough to compete with a big band playing a room with about 150 people but with no power or volume in reserve. I also use it at church, where volume isn't a problem. There I bridge all 100 watts into an 8-ohm cabinet. It's great for crisp, clean tone, and just starts to get fuzzy and compress when you max it out. It doesn't overdrive much other than the fuzziness and compression I mentioned.
Tubes last a long time. I recently retubed it with a matched quad of Electro Harmonix power tubes and a pair of EH preamp tubes for about $60 total. The tubes I replaced were six or seven years old and still have life but would occasionally pop or crackle.
I got mine used in perfect condition for $100. About the best $100 gear purchase I've ever made. It's limited to smaller, low volume gigs but in those situations it shines. Good luck, Bob
