120 watts all-tube amp:
three 12AX7 for the preamp, one for amplification
four 6L6GC for amplification
possibility to switch to EL34 for amplification (more oriented towards grain marshall)
loop effect can be activated at the base level with input and output adjustable
spcial a circuit of noise suppression (the crunch and ultra channels)
a line output with its output level adjustable
footswicth (with a cable long enough for large scenes) to switch the channel and DIFFERENT loop effect)

UTILIZATION

The configuration of 1 First air al simple but once you start to hear the sound it s aperoit the possibilities of rglage are much more complicated that one would have thought ...
channel clear: there are three possibilities for the power to attnuer dlivre the preamp section.
the first position tigth gives a clear bright enough in acute-rich medium and low
c is in my opinion the only one that lets have a real clear sound without saturation, that is happening on the medium position (which could be compared to a brigth on other brands of amps) No sound is clearer a slight saturation appears which can be interresting in the style of music that we want to play (blues rock) the third position makes her loose close to a trs trs dynamic crunch (somewhat comparable to the sound of guitars nirvana or other group in the style) is pushed over more saturation arises (j did the test with my old sg standard) I am convinced that no matter who after a few hours of practice on this head will certainly find his happiness ..
go to distorted sounds:
Channel crunch could have sufficient unto itself j have been out all types of saturation
the crunch was the rolling stones through incubus metalica late to find out ... you will be surprised by the beginners who type acute trs fort but after that ... once you start a tamper quickly found its mark
three positions rear damping al agressivit bring more of the same rglage, one wonders what will we dlivrer channel ultra djas when you see the possibility of this channel standard crunch.
channel ultra aptly named for the large drop of metal with r and c is the top do not gain too much abuse you can find all the sounds present a metalica korn, silverchair or perfectcircle. gras, a large sustain incredible (with my sg adjas that it was not bad by itself) to this amp head will meet with more ... I put a 9 for the simple reason that it takes time to find its footing

SOUNDS

Next is the instrument that branch (sg or stratum) of the amp really a rpond Manir diffrent rglages the demands of care and attention of what we do we have to spend a few hours on it to find what is expected, the legalization of active crunch and ultra channels will give you a little sore but rjouissance beginners is to go for those who will be patients. passing day I make the change of lamps and EL34 amp was another less bright more oriented towards basic rock or hard rock then c is still a must to be able to hit two screwdrivers to change configuration in a wink for the fans of his marshall. not affect the sound is quite the appointment, if we add more of the loop because oddly the volume of the amplifier increases by at least 10 db, I haven t yet know why but eventually I found a not too bad myself playing without external effects I end up with an aditional boost for the chorus at the foot c is not bad at all, for the occasion j've added a few effects pedals like delay and chorus and my pleasant surprise this loop d effect is fabulous ... it respects all that he sends ...

OVERALL OPINION

I repeated this head has a huge potential for the person who has the patience that s not an amp models research is required to find the sound you conviendra.le quality price ratio is more than when intrressant How much will we see other heads ... j I bought mine second hand 850 euros and the price he did nothing to concurencer brand. he's on that I would have had a bigger budget I would orient towards another brand (eg Brunetti) go to the website and you look like m but the new heads of occasions between 1500 tape see 2000 euro twice .. my budget at this price the same nine in Germany in a thom. .. the head is about 1200 euros a marshmal that much better or different brand practicing instruments and a small budget who take a long walk after a few months this amp is anything but a scam to take advantage ...
