(More customer reviews)I am a fairly active musician playing several performances and am in the studio recording a few days a week. I own several bass rigs including a full tube amp, a solid state amp, and a tube hybrid.So I have a fair assortment to compare it to. I bought the amp not knowing what to expect and was pleasantly surprised. I just unplugged from my tube amp and turned on the Line 6 and was not at all impressed. However, when I got it home and began to tweek it a bit, I found it to be great sounding and a lot of fun to use... While it is a modeling amp and the amps you a are simulating will sound better. You can get some great tones without bringing the house down......Very easy to use and adjust to get a sound that is guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Also the ability to store a few pre-sets is cool. Works great for switching guitars, you can even set up volume changes that you experience between different instruments..(as in passive to active or 4 and 5 strings). It would also be nice to have better control of the effects. The biggest draw back that I did notice is that it may not be powerful enough for a medium to large room. Although the direct line out sound is real good.I think that I would like to have more power in the event that I need it. So I'm going to get the HD750 to have 750 watts just in case. I hate to run it flat out. My main amps stay in the studio because they are too large to move unless I have to. This head will be my new amp of choice for playing out locally... It weighs roughly 30lbs. I don't want to leave you thinking that it isn't loud enough... It's extremely loud and I'm sure can perform at volumes that you shouldn't be playing at anyway! But for the price difference between the 400 & 750, I would rather have the unnecessary power on hand..... This amp is a great value for the money... Buy it!!!
