Ah if the loop is definitely a plus!

UTILIZATION

I use this little head comes down to my home room, and repeated a few scenes ...
Its format is very pleasant for transportation, it is a long time heads of 100 watts!
The fact that there are "only" 15 watts (or 7) gene in any rehearsals with a good drummer, just plug the terror of a good 2 * 12 and hop while moving.

This gives a good sound very quickly, the equa noon is already very good.

speaking of the equa, it is progressive and plays a lot on the sound.

I use it in the clean and saturated.
One might think that this terror is intended just metal and other heavy sounds good, but no! the clean (aided by the effects loop) is very flattering. Of course it is necessary to play on the volume and the gain of the amplifier.

I put 9 because that who played on the VHT and Bogner ... it is difficult to see why 10 ;))

SOUNDS

The sound ... hummm yes yes yes this is good, I like the sound signature.
Tried on a 2 * 12 cab V30 and orange bin is big it's heavy it's trambler and it is scary!
Cab on my 2 * 12 VHT Deliverance, more in your face, it pierces into the mix, it is very defined, full of dynamics, in short it is as good!

all in good saturated fat!

right after the "I'm a plaiz equa v and the gain on 12"! we will look more closely.

we will focus on the saturated, you can go rock gentillait the right to see even big metal death just playing on the knobs and without adding any pedal.
Then thanks to the effects loop, you can engage in solo with chorus and delay, it goes easy eazy!
If you want more awesome sound, you can add a équalo (KFK mxr one for me) and the fact that serious at serious!

The small gain boost on a 13-14h with a TS like really gives very good results.

I can say that for me all my guitars go well ... I played with a strat time machine and clean are just great, the crunch very dynamic.
52 tv with it bites, it twang well as it should, and you can even consider big sound ...

The gibson les paul give themselves to their hearts content, low out very very well, palm mute assoment ... and those mounted active, well we fit in the big metal without any problems.

Anyway the amp very well respected guitar and microphone type associated.

Its a little to get an idea ...


I will not deny that I do not use it exclusively, but that in almost saturated with whatever settings allow the beast.

Obviously, the grain must like orange! then it was not a blush next to the monsters and Bogner VHT / Fryette. While the sound signature is particular but it has very nice features and is very good work.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about 3 months and I must confess that the day I tested I stayed on my ass, I did not expect at all to have such a sound, I was delighted!

I was looking for a small amp can do metal after me being separated from my vht pittbul CL100 (which is amazing and I hope to find it one day ... ahhhhh), so I tried a lot of things, the marshall, the mesa, and the other shur orange terror in the series ... and also bogner (brixton and panama)

I fell for the brixton (which is terrible but not the same price range!) But I was missing a little something ... when suddenly I saw this JIM ROOT terror, although very little convinced by the other terror, I thought why not try this ...
Oh and I did well, and the equa we made a loop more compared to brixton, greater modularity has seduced me.
The grain of this terror is unique, but if you like ...

advice will try it, you will perhaps not attractive but it will not leave you without opinion, it is a head that deserves to be heard.
