UTILIZATION

Voil just one week I have the machine in the hands. I bought it for the price: I must say that I was fortunate to come across a seller who did not know what he was selling: 150! I bought it thinking of selling it but I must admit that I tate a bit now.
N'tant not a fan of clean sounds, the only thing I can say is that the clean sound is better than my JCM800: ca claque, it shines. I think it's a perfect amp for jazz, of course, but also reggae, ska, country, and other zic or sound is clear ncessaire

SOUNDS

A Premire thing: the distortion of this amp is the most pathetic I've heard. It looks like something chainsaw style asthmatic or flushing sound heard in the softphone.
It is made for one thing and one alone: ​​the clean sounds! The amp is trs warm despite the absence of the indoor pipes. Submitted trs are the serious and well round the treble sparkle without be aggressive. The reverb is nice trs. It's the best reverb intgre transistor amplifier I have heard. In short, it sounds good and even trs. It's not a Fender but it's good quality of TRS.

I do not know if this is to my gear or something but to get a clean sound relement I must decrease the volume on my guitar may be my microwave has a too high output?
With flight 10 on my guitar, a small distortion is not the dplaisante for a little blues.

I test the addition of pedals with this amp: a handmade overdrive sounds trs well even if the highs become too dry, the area mtal boss when she gives her I got too synthetic.

I do not speak the chorus or the virato them both down on this amp. But as I am not a patient of the effects and plutt supporter of guitar -> distortion -> amp, chorus and vibrato I type the Coquillard ...

OVERALL OPINION

One of the best amplifiers for clear sound. Ms. 250 qualitprix report is more than adequate. I have not had time to try it repeated, but I'm sure the ads are Submitted 50W.
Compared what I play: it is clear this was not the amp of my dreams, but I was looking for easy carry around an amp with a headphone jack (the PSE JCM800 35kg and regis 50Watts s by mashall are widely dpasss trs). I try and 15min is enough to convince me I must admit that it's really the charm and characters. As I am not a fan effects galore, or versatility, the spirit of the JC-50 touch me. It's gross, it makes a sound and a single but what's p ****! I still find the ringing distortion with this amp.
