Built-in effects on an amplifier are usually inferior. Such an amplifier is usually digital. You don't have as much control over the parameters of each effect. You can't mix-and-match (for example, use an Ibanez Tube Screamer for overdrive and an MXR Phase 90). Also, the basic tone of a digital amplifier tends to be inferior, less "punchy" and "organic", and especially problematic in a live setting. Most professional Guitarists would use a very good basic amp (usually a tube amp) and then add an effects unit or a pedal board.

How do you change the volume of an electric guitar?
There are several ways to increase the volume of an electric guitar. The two obvious ways would be to turn up the volume knob on the guitar itself, or turn up the master volume on your amp. If you have no master volume on your amp, use the post gain for the channel you are playing through. Other things also effect the volume of a guitar. Changing the pickups can effect the guitar's output, as can changing the pots, strings, etc. Also, depending on the pedals used, certain pedals can decrease the volume of the guitar being played, but a simple solution to that would be running your pedals through an effects loop.
