Monoprice 15 Watt Guitar Amplifier Unboxing Australian FIRST! FAIL!!!
Just received the really cool, (& relatively frugal) Monoprice Stage Right, 15 Watt guitar amplifier with 12" Celestion speaker!
While it seems well built, 2 glaring issues with this otherwise nice amp. 1, it's US power only, despite the website showing the back panel with a MULTI-POWER transformer fitted, and 2, sadly it had transport damage! (NOT Monoprice's fault!) UPS damaged this amp!
I was SO looking forward to doing a review & demo for you as an Aussie first, but I couldn't even power it up!
This amp seems to be modelled after the Laney Cub combo amp. Same wattage, valve compliment, and features. Same/similar circuit I'm guessing.
The Laney retails here for $780!!! This is just the same amp in a different box, and a different speaker. (Laney use H&H speakers, can't vouch for how good those are, as I have NO experience with them!)
Hell, it wouldn't surprise me IF these Mono amps are made in the SAME factory AS the Laney, 'budget' line!
I have contacted Monoprice to see what they advise to do about the damage and/or the power options.
But I dare say it will have to go back, as the front baffle is cracked right thru! (DAMN you UPS! You have a LOT to answer for Doug Heffernan!)
To be fair to Monoprice, their service is really good, and the speed of shipping was amazing, maybe TOO fast!
