Hi Mark,

It's 150 watt with a nice gain pre-amp. It can go pretty loud and would certainly cope with rehearsal and a small venue although I have only used it at home.
I've just googled it and found some discussion on this, consensus is that it will cope with small gigs.

I've got the TV 15 which is the big brother of this. Great amp with loads of character and a great sound. If Ed Freidland thinks they're great that's good enough for me [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A93b2V7ymf8"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A93b2V7ymf8[/url]

Have a bump on me.

what's the volume like ?

Is it more for Home practice ?

or would it cope with Small gig / rehearsal ?

I played the 350w versions as i REALLY wanted to splash out on one, i personally thought they would cope well with small - med venues due to the size and power of these beasts and the music i played but i think the 150 ver is ideal for a loud jam at home or a moderate gig at a small venue.

possibly more so ideal for an acoustic set???

lovely warm, smooth sounding, classic vibe amps with a modern aproach and i dig the use of a 5 string, active bass with it too and no problems . . . if i had the £400 odd pounds, this would be the first thing i baught!! put it that way :)

although it isnt fault with the amp, more so the user, i will advise anyone with one of these to not push all the dials all the wat up as i have seen [u][i][b]3-4[/b][/i][/u] took in for repairs, locally and cost a pretty penny due to "vintage" and uniqueness of the product. So do treat with care unless your made of money!!!

play anything bigger and i would have thought you would take a line out or mic the cab anyway so I would have thought you would be fine!
