Modeling 15W, 4 Channels (Clean / Crunch, Overdrive 2) Bass / Mid / Treble, Volume / Master (...), 4 effects (Chorus, Flanger, Delay, Phaser). All in one, for the price it's great!
Footswitch / programmable tuner, great!

UTILIZATION

Finding a good when the first uses was to complicated, I must say that I have not read the manual.
Once accustomed to the beast you can get all the sound you want without adding pedals!

SOUNDS

I mainly play everything (except heavy metal that rips the wallpaper), a lot of blues, blues / rock, some sounds with distos (Steve Vai way ...)

Touching setting we reach really have a good sound warm bluesy well clear, and a great crunch!
In terms of overdrive, the first is nice but I quickly replaced by a metal BOSS area.
The second overdrive is really not top (for my taste), so dirty!

So for the price necessarily the effects are not always the pedals:
- Chorus pretty bad, although at very very very small doses it can do
- Flanger and Phaser really not great, but to discover these effects
- Delay great !! nothing to say, I have my Boss Digital Delay plugged in but I'm using almost no delay so the amp is simple to set up and really nice.
- Great and good progressive Reverb!

I play with a Squier Stratocaster Made in Japan (1996) and a Custom 77 Hollowbody CS4, the amp sounds great with these two guitars.

The only really heavy stuff, the volume increases substantially change the channel ... overdrive footswitch activated it's great but if you should lower the volume every time the footswitch is useless ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for only 4 years apart, many times and he has disappointed me on big distos (ie 1/20 of what I play).
A very good amp for the price, give him a BOSS BD-2 and / or a Metal Zone and you have a combo of fire, what to do for a few years (to start or not).
