I've owned this amp for about 5 years. And yes it does buzz at all volumes. It sounds ok when playing but only truly sounds great with a noise reducer. It has been great for practice and small gigs but there are some things I dislike. The kickback, don't bass frequencies travel best parallel to the ground? So what's the advantage? It's just a bigger heavier box than it needs to be. Otherwise the effects loop, tuner jack, line out, all make this amp very versatile. I just think there are better amps for practice for less money. Say the Orange 35 combo? Hmmmm

Unbeatable for the Price

I simply could not find a better bass amp for the money - period. The Fender quality is outstanding and the kick-back design is a must. The only things it lacks are a headphone jack and a CD RCA input.

This Bass amp is a piece of crap. It Buzzes at all volume levels. Don't buy it. I have an old Sears BXL60 Solid State Bass Amp that would put this amp to shame. I can't believe that Fender actually made this amp! What were they thinking? If you don't have a lot of cash to spend. Buy a Behringer BX 1200, it is a much better choice.

it's ok, not the best

I have played bass for a long time and have many amps. This one is just ok, not the best. For the amount of money you should be able to get a better amp. Don't get me wrong though, it's not horrible, it just should be a little cheaper. I would pass on this one folks.
