Marshall 65 watts I believe, with clean channel: Vol, Bass, Mid and Treb .... and the Distortion channel: Gain, Bass, Cont, and Treb Vol .... Finally, the''mix''Fx (I know not Why this) and Reverb.
It's a pretty old Transistor

UTILIZATION

The configuration and operation are so easy .... But then to get a good sound is a little galre finally is a matter of taste but characters in a Satur was screaming overdrive, I am obliged to put a low background and almost no trebble its means for a channel so saturated so-so ...
In clean channel is much better although it still lacks woefully low Anyway the sound is vintage can be on the other to love ....

SOUNDS

At the beginning I started playing the AC / DC and so it's sure I was happy with the vintage well, I play it with several guitars including a Start, an LP, an ibanez .... . But over time I realized that the sound is too annoying for Crystalline and it has a solid solo Guns n roses .... not to mention that it is impossible to try the metal with this amp .. .. I use a distortion pedal boss metal zone of 2 to complete the lack of saturation ......

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 years and after three good and loyal service .... I loose the sound weakens short .... he's dead .....
The good thing is that it delivers a pretty good power and with a microphone placed in front I already provide large rooms .... just the overdrive is just a shit to the point that I had to buy a pedal for distortion and clean ... it's just a little better ....
I think with the exprience I would choose instead a Vox or a Marshall Roland .... But a transistor has little effect ca, ca is shorter and I stress the fact that the overdrive is a chier ....
