This is a fantastic amp for the money. Sounds great for that Paul Jackson (Herbie Hancock) type sound but also sounds good for Claypool stuff. The built in limiter sucks but the tone is great anyway. Comes in a three space rack leaving one extra space for a tuner or a multi effect. Nice idea but I haven't used it. I do use a separate compressor and I play a custom built jazz bass with EMG active pickups. The tone is great for the money and these amps are extremely reliable.
