I had the machine for 2 years, I still do not know what a can serve.
Well, the good points:
Finish top, zero noise, volume trs progressive, all impdances prvues, compact and beautiful.

UTILIZATION

It's not terrible, it lacks a low-cut (the clone harley benton was him). Kesako? Ben More is pushed over the sound volume is dirty and it is bold to the point of being unusable.
A low-cut low cut gradually as you want and can really use this kind of background amp controllers.
Epiphone has short t too shy, and when ds has had no other choice but to make a sound that lacks everything, without equalizer or drive I can not see what else eh.

SOUNDS

What was the point? Only few cases prs tolrable background with a tube screamer Modre front (it has a low-cut it) is hot perpte sustain crmeux, tr s nice.
Otherwise a clean sound is dull as dishwater in fat dgueu crunch is short, I see it.
I tried everything I believe, and only a hot plate gives it the look (4times the price of the junior ...) with SETTING THE loudness.
But no fireworks this valve junior is a real dception, especially when compared with Ibanez tbx15r (l is so ridiculous that it is better to laugh) that does not cost more.

OVERALL OPINION

Looking for a straight tube amp to boost your multi-effect is not the need to look at the valve junior mdium-fade beyond the bearable.
You want the sound of clapton in 1920, has the valve junior can do (with the stripes of the disc as a bonus ...) I guess.
You have a digitech pedals (hot head, screamin'blues, bad monkey) with exit out mix, dj ben is significantly better than the normal output, in this case is a rcupre little pep in his clear, too. So is still a go, but in any case I wonder what is a lamp that sound worse than transistors ...
GaryMoore you like, buy if it's made a dj Ibanez TS7 or better, and turn up the volume background. L trs I think you happy, nothing wrong.
The box has the better suited the valve was a junior 2x10pouces alnico jensen (25w per hp), it sounds as fresh and slamming.
But beware, hello the volume is really loud, no question has to do in an apartment or in community. I think the 5 watts before distortion, APRS adgage hairy!
In short take the Harley clone, its low cut is essential if you want to go this way. Try in-store, probably you will leave with anything other than the head minimalist little use in the end (except for Gary cases).
The reliability is remarkable in two years and no zero-order dgradation sound.
