Fender Metal Head

Anybody head of this amp. I know Fender is'nt to popular around hear, but this amp is 550 watts. They said when they tested it , it set off car alarms, and the police came and they were the first ones to here it. It probaly has the same type of distortion some of you like in SS amps. It might be on their site. I saw it in a catalog.

Its definitely not worth it. Nobody needs 550 watts, if youre in a big enough space to "need that" then youll most likely be miced to the PA anyway. It is SS, and it isnt that great of an amp, I personally didnt like the distortion. Save the money and get a nice tube amp.

A 550W amp is only twice as loud as a 55W amp at full volume.
