Default Electric violin amps as a guitar amp

Has anyone heard any of those Zeta amps?

it seems like they cost an arm and a leg. but if money wasn't a setback what difference would I imagine you get from connecting a guitar into an electric violin amp or vice versa. It just looks real cool though aesthetically speaking.

That is a nice looking amp. I would hope it sounds incredible for the price. They do claim it's sure to satisfy the most discriminating ear! I don't need to hear it 'cause I believe what I read. Why would they lie?

Yeah I believe it as long as it's not on TV. If I read it online then it is factual.

I'd imagine a violin amp wouldn't do the low end justice in a metal band. Not gonna fly next to a Marshall stack. If you want your guitar to sound more like a violin though, this is your animal.
