Amp 5 watts lamps ...
... More of a Tagus modlisation, see official site for information accurate and more detail.

Lightweight connectors: one input and one output suplmentaire a cab or a console.
Volume and gain (except for the 16th modlisation).
Rglages Treble and Bass (no mdium).
Slecteur effects (reverb, chorus, tremolo, rotary speaker, Dlay) and rglage effect.
Some effects are combined.

UTILIZATION

You know what I think of idiots who find it too complicated by comparing it to plug&#39;n&#39;play Champ600?
The rponse is included in the question.

Yes, it needs to be addressed 10 minutes (less with the manual) to say: Oh! he can do it all for 50 euros more than the 600 ... (And a 2-inch pan supplmentaires which is absolutely not ngligeable when you love good food)

After this long and hard study of the use is simplicime bte:
We chose the amp is Modl RULES easily legalization and effect, and we play, to have had my amp bepc and more complicated I Whereas it&#39;s plug&#39;n &#39; play.

The manual is two pages (enough), there is not schmas manufacturing to rebuild a home, but I pass.

SOUNDS

In order to remain objective admit prefer clean sounds of Fender Fender typs, or limits on Fender P-90.
I have a Start, a Variax 600 and a blues deluxe ...
But try to think nanmoins nomtalleux, punk and other former fan of Lorie (it takes all kinds to make a world and that&#39;s good)

THE FIRST modlisation (tweed) is my prfre.
The sound is crystal-clear (trs trs) and thanks to the gain knob, the lamps can be pushed sharply lower volume (which the foot).
To have the blues deluxe 25 cm from the vibrator (field) I can swear that the only diffrence are due to its size hp (lack of bass) and I think a rglage of mdiums times missing.

You end up with a tweed Fender sound with compression lamps shoots without timpani bleeding and that&#39;s exactly what I asked for this amp.

And 15 other modlisations then!
We have 5 amp types: Tweed, Blackface, British (ac-30?), Hot-Rod and metal.

The first two are in three versions: Light, more saturated saturated.
Intermdiiaire saturation as more than correct, one can saturate the least.

The British and Hot-rod is available in saturated and more saturated, the British fuze a bit, could have taken to Woodstock Jimi but not complete.
I have nothing against Hot-rod but it does not inspire me too (it&#39;s not true Hot-Rod anyway).

The mtal is yuck.
Yes yes yuck, on a hp 8-inch and even with the best intentions I think that we can have a correct distortion, to play the Sex Pistols to forget the password again but Pantera and Black Sabbath (j &#39;have the REFERENCE I can, I&#39;ve told the mtal is not my thing).

Oh effects! much reverb, delay good but there are only three dlais of delay, chorus well, okay tremolo (below a uni-vibe) and leslie ... ... I have nothing to compare.

For the price they actually are more than correct these effects.

Finally I want children you taste it before saying I do not! and even before you say I love elsewhere.

Update 1/10/08:
I test a few pedals on it.
Buldog Distortion (VOX) makes it much better than the original distos. It still lacks bass but it&#39;s pretty good.
OD-9 (MAXON) prfr makes my overdrive as well as on a Blues Deluxe (still lacks bass).
Supercomp (MXR): Useless, because the natural compression with the lamps are heated through dja leve.
Axis Fuzz (ROGER MAYER): difficult to use, made too garish, but may be adjustable.
Wah-Wah: Ben has always wow-wow the same.

The last two amps simulated:
The Jazz King (Sold without Gibson Super 400 snif) clearly directed towards the low frequencies, I do not think it is very sensible to the extent that is what makes less hp.
Nanmoins, a large branch of a hp sounds perfectly.
Acoustasonic: His trs trs clear and crystal-clear, rgler harder than the rest, the sound may be gorgeous, but the low saturate very quickly (=> hp).

OVERALL OPINION

I think overall ...

I am surprised at the quality of these little amps (on the ass actually, but I wanted to be polite), I almost bought a Champ 600, but the diffrence is obvious, try both, you will take the Vibro Champ XD.

I came across a notice explaining user jou have 10 minutes in the store on 600 field: that happiness! and 10 minutes on the Vibro Champ: rglage as ... and I confess that has put me in a bad mood: It is not an opinion in 10 minutes in the store!

(I&#39;ve jou 2 hours over two days before buying it ...)

Certainly the cot plug&#39;n&#39;play Field 600 is gnial with its vintage look and sellers have no problem to make you go with, but the amp you are going to spend time at home, and the sound quality of the Vibro Champ sincrement are best.

It&#39;s a bedroom amp, it plugs into a cab one can best be expressed, but must know what you want from the size, loudness, price etc. ...

Finally I do not want to TRY pub, but if you have any questions do not hesitate.
