The FenderFrontman 15 R is a fantastic peice of starting kit. Highly recommend above the 15 G it offers all your major tweeks needed to get a good sound. The ability to switch to and fro drive mode, means you can have your staright forward aucoustic sound then hit the button to apply all your settings from: Gain, treble, middle bass and reverb. These are good all round setting where I myself have managed to acheive something close to what Eddie Van Halen puts out.

Very handy this allows you to plug in say your ipod to play along to!
Overall the Frontman 15 R is a great amp and will cater for almost all levels as a house amp or even small ...
Advantages: Small and practical, Aux input, Sound produced is loud and of high quality Disadvantages: Weak materials used in build and tacky, plastic emblem.
I originally bought this amp as a small personal practice amp but It often has extended to be used in ensemble practice for both Bass, Electric Guitar and Acoustic Guitar and on one occasion, a live gig.
The amp produces a rich timbre which is only typical of every fender amp and is often reminiscent of blues rock and would be the perfect step into guitar playing for the beginner and would also suit the more experienced guitarist as this allows them to practice intimately at low volume as the timbre does not faulter.
The amp also an AUX input which could allow, say a busker to play their backing track whilst they play their guitar over or to play over your favourite tracks personally with better sonic equalisation and help you learn them.
The amp is the perfect size considering it's role as a practice amp and looks very attractive ...
Advantages: Great sounding and playing guitar by the masters! Disadvantages: There are none
