Great amp, different than the TinyTerror but if you'd like, a good big brother of the TT. I liked the Rocker30 more than the Rockerverb 50! It's got an addictive tone, really.

This one sums it up pretty well.

From around 2:40, that's what I experienced in the shop when I tried one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBm9JKisP7Y

Are you after more power that the Martamp you are selling?  If so I'm not sure the 10 extra watts would make that much difference, unless you are after cleam headroom?

The rocker 30 has a nice crunch tone but I think it can be a little dark, especially for cleans.  But yeah good rock tone

Well selling and buying cheaper probably..and unfortunatly yes another thing is needing more clean headroom the Martamp is just not loud enough against other guitarist
