What Do We Think?

This is one impressively “big” little rig. And superbly versatile. First of all, we’ve never heard a 10” speaker sound so warm and full. There is nothing lacking in the low end department of this amp. It is bold and punchy. The midrange is rich and full of character, and the highs can be anything from round to chimey depending on your position on the treble knob!

In LO gain mode, you have a surprising amount of clean headroom available if you dime the master volume and run the preamp gain around 10 o’clock. Would it keep up with a drummer while maintaining pristine cleans? No, but it will definitely give you a wonderful clean voice for recording and could keep up with a drummer in rehearsal at light breakup. And now seems the perfect time to reveal the 2-band EQ’s secret weapon…

Between 3 o’clock and fully up, the Bass knob scoops the midrange while continuing to increase the lows. So the LO gain mode at low gains can really deliver anything from American Blackface to British Chime, even some Tweed in there if you set it just right. Once you push the preamp gain above noon, you’ll find plenty of classic crunch tones as well.

Switching to HI gain mode reveals an impressive range of gain. And the greatest thing about it is the way it gets deeper and punchier the more you turn it up. This is opposite of some amps, where your tone tends to thin out as you increase the level. Not so with the Baby M-80! From crisp rhythm crunch to hard rock riffing to searing leads, this little amp has you covered.

As we sit here with our ears ringing, be warned… this amp relies on your self-control to keep the levels down. You probably won’t run it wide open at the house or on a small stage. And that’s just fine, because the master volume does a marvelous job of giving you access to all the tones mentioned above at whatever volume you need.

Another thing to note is how well this amp handles all pickup types. From single coils to P-90s to humbuckers (both vintage and modern), it really serves up stellar tones with all. And lastly, a built-in effects loop will allow you to run your reverbs and delays with precision and clarity, even as the front end of the amp takes you wherever your heart desires.
