I own an AC-33, and thought the review was bang on, except they didn't rave enough about the sound (if it is an acoustic amp, once you get to a certain point, maybe it can't get any better...?) In particular, I think the reverb/ambience and chorus are the best I've heard in a unit in this price range)

As I've written elsewhere, my only quibbles are:
1. The reverb is assigned to both channels, and cannot be adjusted independently.
2. There is no pole mount (what were they thinking....)

Other than those minor issues (to me), the AC-33 is well worth the money, and I think sounds even better than the AC-60......

(IMO, it is MUCH better than the Cube Street, and I (even) prefer it to the Bagamp (based on its I/O configuration) - others may differ, of course....

YMMV.....
