Published on 07/12/14 at 12:02
Value For Money : Correct
Audience: Anyone
Features 7/10
Type: Modeling pedal disguised as an amp with a small and well-chosen speaker.
Power: Low volume but big sound
Connections: IN + Aux (mic/switchable loop)
Controls and effects:
Different mixes of well-chosen well-known amps + cabinets.
Classic Rev/Dely/Mod/Comp effects.
Despite being small, the PA stage includes something to adjust the volume and tone.

Use 8/10
It's easy to dial in because it resembles a real full-fledged combo.
The manual is short but comprehensive enough.
It sounds fine almost all the time (if you bear in mind that it's an
amp that could be too much for a sleeping car but wouldn't be heard next to an accordion and
a percussion set made of cardboard), but it's not bad at all to rehearse when traveling or in your room :-)

Sound 7/10
I have tested it with all my guitars and basses including the
direct loop (with TC-ditto-looper or ZoomG1Xon-loop)

I like it, it does the job, the sound is never lousy and
it's sometimes very good (despite the size of the speaker).

Overall opinion 7/10
Two years of use.
I love its quality+volume/size+weight ratio, it's very good for my back and neighbors.
To play in a home studio I prefer the Blackstar-ID-TVP-15 but
the latter is six times as heavy and isn't carry-on sized :D)
