What kind of amplification (lamp, transistor ,...)? What is the power dlivre? What connection? What rglages the effects? * ...

All-tube amp, 15W, single-channel reverb and vibrato

UTILIZATION

The configuration is it simple? Gets it easy to sound good? The manual is clear and sufficient? * ...

As a single channel, the more you push the sound, the greater the distortion. Until 4 / 10 the sound is perfectly clear.

Amp trs easy to use. I use this amp in a home studio flat configuration. This amp dlivre low volume sound of incredible quality. A 2 / 10 the sound is superb and no more noisy than TV!

As I live apart often I could test the disto ... I found it average. Personal I use a pedal for distortion of the low volume.
The distortion seemed trs blues ... see muddy. As much I love the distortion of both the Hot Rod ... l. .. blah ...

Against by between 4 and 6 on the volume knob was a great overdrive, crpusculaire, great!

The 15W ears become damaged enough rpt. I think a can also do a concert if the sound of the amp is transplanted.

- Not at all showy as some Fender models

- The highs are as low trs Submitted. Sound so balanced and trs hot. I also liked the warm sound of the VOX AC15. However, I criticized the lack of VOX shine ... especially with a Jazzmaster (the most serious of Fender). With VOX guitar I was afraid of food frquences on bass and does not properly s'insre in the mix.
- Reverb and Vibrato MAGNIFICENT. It is just an empty string we peed on it so it's beautiful. - Clear sound extremely well Dfine. When an ISP agreement really means each string of Manir individual. So the amp requires some precision in the game ..
- I could compare this amp in a recording studio provided with: a Mesa Boogie Rectifier, Fender Hot Rod and a Crate. I will not talk about because we achte distortion this amp for its clean sound of legends, not for its distortion. Brief me e compared the sound of the Mesa Boogie clear sounded too ... ... the rock FM Hot Rod silent duller, right, so hot but a little more rock, a Crate pure distortion but a clear right as an orange, so we talked about not even. In the end its my Jazzmaster Amp + is similar to that of bands like Logh or Mono.
