«  Excellent amp ... »

Tube amp, 30W, a CLEAN A DRIVE A BRIGHT, reverb and TONE. In short everything you need anything!

UTILIZATION

The setup is super simple, no need for manual, we get it right even with all its buttons to 12h.

SOUNDS

Okay so I found this amp just wonderful, a gem! in the channel with the button CLEAN BRIGHT we come to have a clean ultra clean, crystalline wish playing with the position of the microphones, the amp does not really crunch and the sound is great, really accurate with a nice dynamic, fully respecting the attack with a pick. Finger, rendering is also beautiful, the sound is round, warm and slamming a pure delight.
DRIVE channel now, it's all good personally love completely, 1 to 5 you get a sound cruchy with a pretty good natural sustain. It's simple, my clean channel is actually on the drive channel knob to 3.5. Thanks to it I can have a really nice sound barely crunchy, clean limit when I play, and what is good is that we attack the notes, the overdrive is more important, absolutely not garish, super natural and super nice to listen. From 5 up to 10 drive is the most important and you can resume all rock classics with, the sustain is super good (which is really important for me). If you are a fan of Paul Gilbert, you obtiendez with a good guitar (played with a ibanez RG prestige mounted DiMarzio PAF Pro and Air Norton) the same as him, and being a fan myself, I can only rave What!
I recommend however if you want to play in a register virtuoso (Gilbert, Vai, Satriani, etc..) Coupling to a distortion of course I played with a Satchurator (my god what pedal!) On the drive to 3 as previously said, I put the pedal to 7 / 10 in gain, tone and 5 3.5/10 in volume, and wow, I sound super nice, vintage, precise, with notes that last limit at infinity with MORE button engaged, in short a killing.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week and I'm ultra mega conquered! I hesitated a lot between him and the Peavey Classic 30 to the base, but when I tested it, I was really surprised by Laney, by its claireté in the game and his respect for the dynamic pick, especially more than the sellers told me that the Classic 30 had much problem with the lights (they burn out quite often).
What I like most is the accurate notes that the amp offers (if you are not careful in your own sweeping it goes along!), There is nothing I dislike !
Value for money than good, I paid my own store for a little over 700 €, but you can find it on thomann in the 550 € ... So go ahead!
