This is a tube amp 70 watt, you can connect other speakers to the amp and there is a switch 4, 8 or 16 ohms. You can use the amp in pentode or triode (3 or 5 lights).
It has a clear channel and a saturated (gain adjustment and volume) very effective. Reverb (an overall adjustable parameter. A tri-band equalizer with a booster medium (on or off).
You can enter into the amp through the normal channel, or bright (the difference is not obvious but ... the bright is still slightly brighter actually).
The footswitch pedal included with switches from clear channel saturated channel and vice versa and enable / disable the reverb.

UTILIZATION

Nothing more simple, this is a vintage amp is just turning the knobs according to what you want ...

SOUNDS

The sound is excellent, a really good surprise for the price it costs. A big warm sound, the light effect is there!
Of course it does not compete with a big Marshall or Orange amp head but it does not cost the same either and frankly I've always found it very satisfying to use and I am not alone in my case.
Parameters are sensitive and accurate, we can easily get the sound you want, clean, soft, soft, hard, slightly saturated, highly saturated, loaded low, or not, the booster medium is effective, not too outrageous, the equalizer also works very well, and reverb as modest as it is very well calculated, it is fine and clean and had its effect.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had it for 4 years, I sold it because I was not playing and I needed money ... Otherwise I would have kept and in any case, I highly recommend it.
Note qu'apparamment new version edited by jackson (ie new components) is out and I do not know what it is worth, this is probably very close to me but I had the old model. To recognize if I understand:
old model: blue LED facade
new model red diode (or orange I know more)
Here's but probably still a good amp for its price makes, I repeat, unbeatable!
