At $10 It is cheaper than the Paper Jamz "amp".

I have to post this fact every time Park amps are mentioned as a penance: when I was nineteen, I sold a Pearl copy of a Fender Twin and a WEM vertical 4x10 to my mate Jon to raise the money to buy a Park G10R from Tandy.

Oh the shame.

Nice find. Some of the Gain settings do sound great; price considered.

Oh the shame.
A Park G10R is way more versatile than a Twin.

You did good.
