I put 10 because I want a no frills amp cumbersome, it is the sound that leads me (it was beautiful, it looks like the Aubert)

UTILIZATION

This is a head made for lovers of vintage amps lamp, who are tired of machines that have all the uniforms same PCB and the same Features and functions. Here is a simple and effective: first the volume is large (in small rooms you will still lower the volume ....) and then use is intuitive: one branch and a rock and sounds roll and the blues .... I have given my opinion on a small lamp combo this artisan and I repeat the same thing more available than he has for you does not exist. This guy (Jean-Michel Herdhuin, guitarist of "Psycause") is a passion that remains normment the costs of its customers, who no longer feel also "clients", but peer .... So the manual, not only worry was not necessary, but it also becomes unnecessary, the manufacturer, he is the manual ...
10 here too because it's hand-stitched, the sound is the amp in dj.

SOUNDS

First, my style is blues-rock. With the group in which I play, since the balance is "summertime", "blue jeans blues" or "little wind" up "antisocial", "I'm going home" or "Smoke on the Water." So large as trs directory. I play with a team of P90 Les Paul Studio. Ds and I tried this thing, I immediately realized that silent well above the amp lamp (excellent by the way) that took me years APRS find hundreds of tests on BPS or store. The relatively low power (I think underestimates) of 15/18 watts does not impede me because transplanting is done for scnes collection outdoor. I have on this amp:
January 1 clear channel trs compress superb. There's nothing else to add it to crunch del 9 am on knob and when we pass this milestone, the sound becomes more beautiful, is the cost to see how beautiful it is. There's no reverb on mine (it is optional) but frankly I did not see that there was no ...
February 1 crunch channel, I do not mince words, I seek the sound since I play the guitar. Gain 12 hours, the grain is as I seek, with a little compression, I put the LP on two microphones, and I change the microphone volume low or high and I have varaiations sounds beautiful. I can also decrease the output volume of the guitar and I RULES and the level of distortion. It has a rock and roll! At the Rory Gallagher, I'm doing the sound! I grew up with records of Freddy King, Johnny Winter, Rolling Stones, Alvin Lee, Led Zep, Beck, Clapton and company and I found these beautiful sounds in this amp. And it's not over ....
3 With the boost "Spitfire" It goes further in the distortion, but while remaining clear and warm tones: here you can easily play more heavy stuff: the two V30 cabinet cashing without flinching. The sound did not dtrior with the addition of saturation, some amps I've tried I have given that impression .... For solos or no fat is Nirvana.

This head gives me exactly what I'm looking like her. I put the amp is 10 which gives me the clean sound, rhythm and lead I am looking for the grain back to millimtre. There's two channels, but with the wonder of switch "Spitfire" you got three channels in fact! No need for any pedals. Just the footswitch provided and my wah wah.

OVERALL OPINION

I know recently. I bought this excellent craftsman (I'm not against the Chinese workers to eat, but our orfvres also need to eat ...) in the vicinity of Grenoble a fabulous little combo that was almost DTR ador my amp (a fabulous "The Valve" 2-50-2). And I tried this one, I believe my cages honey. This head is what I was looking for years!
I like the sound, the look, the possibility to rgler perfectly as I want. the number of amp I've tried before adopting it is Lysen. report quality price? Unthinkable. 850 euros a head .... No need to comment: all handmade, welded point by point, component sorting, lamps to choose from.
Choice I do it again of course, unless I put the ocarina, and more ...
