I used it for years. It has thousands of hours on it, surely. The cab will have fewer hours, as there was no point in using it in the house for practice. I'd sometimes gig with just the head combo. That was plenty loud for even moderately sized venues - but you're also expected to look the part. Showing up at a gig with just a tiny combo amp can look bad, but once folks heard it they understood. It's seriously loud and actually sounds good when it's cranked up.
People listen with their eyes. If they see an amp the to their eyes looks shitty they with think it sounds shitty
Yup. It's a small amp, so it can't sound loud. I'd sometimes bring the cab but not actually plug it in. I'd just have it up on the stage near the back where it could be seen.
Really a 2x12 should be plenty of amp for most situations
