UTILIZATION

On one of the most simple configuration, we spend more time playing!
Easily obtained crunch sounds even see mtalleux (j'me'm retyping One of the solo metallica and this is allucinant, but it is not "the" sound metallica).
When the manual is provided and trs trs clear, and it is best read if you connect an HP DSIR the output prvu this.

SOUNDS

Yes it is part of what I play, but this amp is not versatile in the types, if you like funk or reagge go your way. As against the rock to hard rock, the grain breaks the shack (Nirvana love buzz dee seven ...).
The clean sounds (the plural 's guitar + Tone knob on the amp) are easily exploitable, it also respects the sound of the guitar (for me an Ibanez and an ergo EXR170 Lag Roxanne studio). Good sound for my part I think sends a good, sound a bit like a silent P'ti closeted with the Vox in a cardboard box (personal I adore).
He has a real personality sound, right now I play with it, a tech and a Valvestate 15w 21, I found this little amp into a good companion for compounds (with a sound like a, a lot by itself). But no-be must be said also lacks a bit of heat. verdict for its lack of warmth and versatility even when I stick him on August 1

OVERALL OPINION

I 'm four months of use, the sound and the Aesthetics, a hand amp, just be not as much as oranges, but I haven' t been able to compare.
Report quality price: trs RALIS well at the finish.
Yes I do it again without hsiter choice, considering the price and compactness and the sound ...
