Transistor amplifier 100w, 4 channels (Clean, Crunch, Lead, Warp)
Adjustment (treble, mid, bass and volume) for clean (gain, volume) for crunch, (lead / warp gain, lead flight warp flight) for the lead and warp and (treble, mid, bass) for these last 3, that is, this setting will be the same for all three 'distortion'.
The connector is standard, footswitch, Bafle, line out, effects loop.

Small multi effect (chorus / flanger / tremolo) + (delay) + reverb can be set differently for each channel, it remembers your last setting, class!

UTILIZATION

Configuration is one class is not lost.

So for her, I want to say that at first I thought "you did the con to buy this amp" because I am very conservative and I regretted my sound marshall 5010 lead.

Then without looking too long, especially during the first repeat, sound sick! And I really enjoy all the 4 channels!

Only drawback, too bad the adjustable TREB, mid, bass is not independent of the crunch, lead and warp. That said it does not interfere in any way (see below)

In addition we can not return to the effects of independently chasue channels (6 times one reads the manual, which is clear but not really useful as well, before you enjoy this superb luxury). PPET 2nd B flat anyway, it is difficult to assay the chorus / flanger / tremolo, there have been a mix button and more.

SOUNDS

I play pop rock metal, I thought I use two channels at the beginning and then the other two have imposed themselves.

I play with a Epiphone Les Paul Custom. The sound is quite Polivalente.
Despite the non possibility to adjust the EQ on channels independently adjustable between 2.3.4 the three stands and remains consistent which is not to overlook!

Missing can be a bit of potato to note for note when the sound rule of priority for the rhythm.

The mutli effect is not bad, having said that I expect to have a footswitch to enjoy it.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months, I waited to do with first before posting, but it itched to extol its merits.

The top is 4 channels anyway. I tried with some friends a peavey bandit 112 as well but I found the soft distortion (it seems a bit fragile too) and a Marshall AVT 100 which I found much for what he did.

The price / quality ratio is very honorable, as it will save at least initially on the purchase of pedal (even if only for the reverb and delay) We add a wah and a tuner at all here and we are ready for the tour of his interplanetary group!

And yes ma'am I would do the same choice, no problem!
