Value For Money : Poor
80w amp hybrid. A lamp ECC83 Marshall (who feels the dead rat for channel Overdrive
Supplied footswitch for changing channels and reverb
Rglages equalizer Gain, Medium, High, Low -> Channel 1 Clean / Crunch
Gain equalizer, Medium, High, Low, Counter and Volume -> Channel 2 Disto 1/Disto 2
Master Volume, Reverb ..

UTILIZATION

Good to the rglages is according to its tastes. The 3-band channel EQ will not give any clear, the knobs have no effect bcp, especially that of Mdium
It has a large pannel of sound in the Overdrive channel, although it still sucks, low and loud.
Full manual but is a little nothing.

SOUNDS

The clean sound is cold, without being ashamed.
The Overdrive channel is really bad shit, too much crunch, imprcis, weakling, you get no sound but it would be saturated when apprcie prsence of the same contour knob.
I did not understand if the lamp used is really something, at least we can have a really clear sound sympatoche on Channel 2 but TFW of the Contour knob ...
80W? Yeah, must get high qd same, it not really boost ...
I used a MT2 with pedals, silent sound nice, except when we turn up the volume too high.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a year since I had this amp, I could sell it as 100!
Its clear medium overdrive rotten ... the reverb is not bad even qd
The Master Volume knob of spit and cut the sound sometimes, so it is urgent to change.
I also had a problem of "crunch" that sometimes appeared when I played, the sound became really filthy.
Problem with the footswitch also, sometimes going on Channel 1 to Channel 2 by itself without me doing anything.
Price lev for a crappy amp.
Obviously I do not absolutely do it again this choice for an amp that's really not worth peine0.
