Everything has been said of the 10 1st reviews ... I have no function echo ^ ^

UTILIZATION

Configuration is very simple and it's easy to find a sound that corresponds to our expectations. At least on the channel "Clean". Channel saturation is nonetheless easy to use against his level ... we'll talk in the relevant section!

SOUNDS

To begin, I must say that I changed the lamp preamp original Sovtek 12AX7 Tung Sol with a Gold Pin. I got a creamier sound less aggressive to clean. I set the channel in general lamp on 0 ... if I go over this point too that crunch (but enough to lower the level of the microphone) and even I have 0 potato below the elbow, or rather under the foot! Because for the saturation of the pedals I use: CoolDrive Artec, Artec Classic Fuzztown and AMT Electronics Du Hast. I play a Dean ML Dime-o-Flage Dean Razorback DB and.
The channel is saturated, to my taste of course, unusable despite the presence of a knob to medium. Cranked the transistor provides a "PRAP PRAP" very (trop!) synthetic, far from distorting quality unfortunately.
This beautiful clean channel allows me to have a warm sound that I can graft a bunch of effects to address a variety of styles: from funk to heavy through the dub and rock.
I put 9 for clean ... 2 for the saturation.

OVERALL OPINION

I have since July 2007. Paid € 277 on a German site known, it is well suited to use as I did. It is a very nice amp for beginners, because offering a cheap and clean clean and warm and not too demanding as we can use the boosted channel (but in my humble opinion, a Danelectro distortion pedal to € 15 probably sounds better that this channel). He has the mouth that little stack, I find another asset and he has enough potatoes for a rehearsal 'with a drummer just nag ^ ^
What I like most: the clean channel, the price, its mouth, potato
The least: the channel saturation, you need to buy an extra pedal to change channels
Yes I most certainly do it again this election!
