All Tube Amp everything easier to use (apparently, however). J'apprcie the fact to choose between 50 or 100 watts depending on need.
The connection is the most standards.
The rglages are simple. Being able to change the type of sounds with the pedals changing channels is a plus over the head Marshall JCM800 2203 SERIES ago that I used qqes Annes.
No reverb on this head, or other effects (indsirables ???).

UTILIZATION

It's a Marshall, so no making head in the config. As for sound, it's rock, rock trs same according to rglages effectus legalization. The basic sounds are warm with a grain trs Marshall typically the best tank. It is true that this amp has RALIS t "by hand" as a kind of custom (requires endorsement from Slash). We like it or not, but I can assure you that with the Vintage 30 4x12 cabinet, the sound is authentic and powerful. We know you your l!!!
I think this head is really a great platform for additional effects pedals (distortion, etc. ..).
No need for manual is so simple.

SOUNDS

Playing in the styles and Hard Blues-rock, this amp is fulfilling its contract, it's tough no-nonsense, I wish a more effective legalization, but this is not the strong point of this trademark.
Start with a clean sound with a time limit for supper and reverb, the sound is warm and clean trs (yes!) With plenty of punch (ah, the lamps Grooves EL34 tubes), although careful rgler levels of input and output. This head sounds good at "crunch" and I think this is the kind of sound it is the best with variations friendly enough. As for the heavy cavalry, I have a 1st gnration Guv'nor distortion but I AIM lamp over in the section prampli (x3). Besides, if qqu'un can advise me on one of distortion pedals top, I'm interested.
My guitars are: Ibanez Artist 500, 1982, I quip by Seymour Duncan and Lag of the beast 1992 customs handle with rosewood fingerboard and three microphones Rio Grande (1HB simple splittable + 2) and a Takamine Electroacoustic EAN10C I happen to plug it.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this head with his cabinet in 1997 for an individual 6500 FRCS only c'tait a matter not to be missed because all still under warranty silent six months.
As I said above, this is a good amp trs for rock and blues-rock. For mtal will require him or add a PDAL prampli (attention to gain!).
For the record, I have a branch qqes time prampli Mesa / Boogie Formula in the amp section of the head. This gives much more possibilities of sound through the three channels of Mesa, but I came back to the basic sounds that satisfy me plenty.
For those who are INTERESTED, I sell the prampli Mesa / Boogie (trs trs little used, nickel hardware).
I havent tried many other heads amp (ENGL's are terrible!) But I think I cracked the config again to Slash SERIES, especially considering the price I purchased o .
