  Characteristics

  Amplification has preamp lamp: 1 * 12AX7
  
  transistor amplifier
  
  8 ohms: 225 w
  
  4 ohms: 350 w
  
  2 ohms: 500 w
  
  for all is the connection (see other post)
  
  Me: I love not having the tuner output facade, too bad.

  Utilization

  The setup is very simple is not a gas plant
  
  we get it very easily the desired sound.
  
  For my part, there was no manual with the amp (used)

  Sounds

  I play Celtic rock, is well suited to this style is not an amp musique.ce typbr /> I use a cort b5 h, and a Schecter Diamond Series 5 string lefty.
  
  The advantage of this GB is the neo pak PRESHAPE: 1 bass boost (for my part, if not always switched the sound is poor!) a hollow shape which mediums and a shape that boosts the mids a delight for slap!!
  
  if not of very good material, I love its facade with clear blue LEDs !!!!! Behind a place where the lamp Pramper: hummmmmmmm !!!!!!!!!

  Overall Opinion

  I use it since March 2008, I changed it with a Markbass afien cons ht 503 was more powerful, but I fell for the prshape really effective!
  
  IMPORTANT!: I use it with 2 boxes ashdown abm: 1 * 15p, 10p and 1 2 * is a version of 350w at 4 ohms and power is ample, unlike what I have read of other post (I wish I Specifies that availing oneself version II, which can get up at 2 ohms 500Watts, unlike the version I)
  
  I also (importantly) the lamp Pramper chang (Chinese) against a series philips tsf it gives a bigger sound (fawn all proportion ampeg guard!)
  
  I also brushed aluminum facade's, its buttons contrle aluminum (no plastic!) and notched Entirely!
  
  what I love most: this damn prshape!!
  
  and also the ability assayed Pramper has the desire to light fawn has to saturate (for aficionados !!!!)
  
  weight!!
  
  I like the least: it lacks a low contrle medium rather, that it is not the 19-inch rack width: addition of 2 querries Bond Fixing
  
  
  
  Report qualitprix is ​​excellent, without that choice I will ever hsitations even if today I put up for sale

  Power
  
  
  
  It would be hard to do more complete!

  Utilization

  Setup is simple, all afternoon, a ring of fire god dj ...
  
  The sound is good trs, trs hot prcis and round the same time! One of the best amp I've experienced in sound, but because there is a "but" ...
  
  
  
  Major concern with this power head! Pluttddie people playing in training quiet type jazz / pop, as in 8 ohms, in a formation with two guitar oriented rock, it is quickly the limits of the head!
  
  
  
  We must therefore choose its head depending on the use made of it (is why I could sell mine)
  
  
  
  The manual is concise and clear, nothing wrong, but in English!
  
  
  
  For the sake of power, I do that 8

  Sounds

  I play rock, blues East, with an Ibanez ATK405 ...
  
  The sound is simply gnial! Too bad the power amp is a bit more Balze!
  
  
  
  But the sound is really excellent!

  Overall Opinion

  I use it for about 2 months!
  
  What I like: The sound, weight, look, the simplicity of rglage!
  
  I dislike: the lack of power into 8 ohms, but you can not ask too much too lightweight an amp!
  
  If you are looking for more big power, direct you to the Markbass ...
  
  
  
  The ratio quality price is OK, it's a bit expensive, but it is a good head trs
  
  
  
  With exprience, I turned plutt a more powerful head of the brand, the Neo as relatively feeble in power ... Too bad, because the sound is great!
