Anyone know of the reliability of the Ashdown MAG C115T 300? I have read some reviews and some have said that its really bad but then again some other reviews have said the amp's amazing. I really want it and just wanted to know if i can put my trust into it.

at least three local guitar shops refered to them as crashdowns and said they'd refused to stock them any more when i went to check them out. i think crashdown says it all.

I'd say get the 2x10 version and then buy a 1x15 cab. Or save up for an ABM.

I haven't played many, but their quality control I hear is great. It's the tone I dislike... WAY too warm.

i didn't come up with it but it's better than breakdown which is what i heard someone else call them

Yeh, and you know what, I bet most of these people just dont know how to treat anything with respect. Never had any reliability issues with my Ashdown. I'll stand by mine forever. Beautiful tone.
