Amp hybrid analog power stage, tube preamp (3 ECC83).
500 watts into 4 ohms, 300 watts into 8 ohms. Tube compressor (1 ECC81), 3-band passive Equalizer (bass, mid, treble), low switch active / passive.
1 gain, 1 knob color. (Supposed to emulate the action of the lamps to warm the sound, or appellation head tube emulation technology).
At the rear, two combos speakon / jack, 1 di output and ground lift switch 1.
Lacks an effects loop and an output setting of the DI to make it perfect. It weighs 6 kg easy to carry around with a leather handle on the side, the most beautiful effect. Very nice finish. The Case Style very openwork certainly require more care during storage (dust), but...…

Lacks an effects loop and an output setting of the DI to make it perfect. It weighs 6 kg easy to carry around with a leather handle on the side, the most beautiful effect. Very nice finish. The Case Style very openwork certainly require more care during storage (dust), but we do not doubt its effectiveness when the heat dissipation.

UTILIZATION

The simplicity is what makes this amp. We quickly found a good sound. The passive equalization does a good job, do not hesitate to use all the knobs race to find "the" sound, the action of the knobs is not in my opinion with surgical precision, but if n does not hesitate to use the whole race, it's the job well. The color control for the determination of degree of "heat" that it brings the sound very effectively.
The online manual is purely anecdotal, and just tweak a few moments to understand the workings of the beast.

SOUNDS

I have an ibanez srx 500, fender roscoe beck and 4 strings, the amp fully respects the sound characteristics of these two instruments. Can not qualify for both the stereo, because we feel the leg markbass with low round and deep (but not fat), mids and highs sound muffled and not agressifs.Le is dynamic and responds very well to nuances the Italian game doigts.Les say this amp rapidly from its modern vintage sound. This is almost the case as if the clear is very clean and well defined, it has no side hifi and very straight (or cold) with an amp sound called modern. (And my taste so much better!). On the side where there's no vintage photo, the color knob does wonders! It injects a healthy dose of heat and cuts the high frequencies.
I play in a registry alternative rock, metal, hard rock, fusion and I almost always need his playing on the gain, equalization, there is a way to emphasize the accuracy or deep bass to give more seat. Metal in the registry is missing can be a bit of righteousness (but I quibble), however he excels in the registry or rock it the fundamental Assen with a beautiful energy. Times for hard rock the vintage effect is the most beautiful effect! I have no doubt that fans of funk, jazz comblés.Le compressor are on the first part of the race is very discreet, and it is very effective past noon, he is excellent on the parties and did not slap the side " gasworks "my mxr pedal format. This brief is all good, in terms of versatility is almost flawless.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 15 days, over my head Gallien Krueger 700 rbII (I wanted to try something that I love gallien). In comparison, the gallien is richer in harmonics, with a more sensitive equalization. Low the markbass sound with a little less extent, have a more rounded side, no way to get the growl of gallien with his hand a little fat. However I prefer the warmer side and muffled mids and treble of the head. I just find it a shame that even with the gain cranked there was no way to make cruncher. Otherwise the glue head quite to my program. I recommend seeking a versatility and power.
