120 watt all-tube, no staff, just a prescence, and a blade resonance what idea??

UTILIZATION

I do not have the manual,
However, this head is really easy to use, 3 Channel, each with their settings midle bass treble volume and gain for 2 channels of distortion, so 2cannux of distortion with separate setting, which gives a crunch sound quite vintage, but clean enough back, and the ultra channel is a very powerful distortion, catching vrément, but remains a prepreté perfect, I had never seen her before, it is on it is very easy to get a sound very clean and has your taste, whether plain or distortion, relative to mesa boogie, or distortion is not easy and often spills controller, over the JSX over a mesa just produced a very distal modern, relevant, even while pushing the button on a modern mesa, ba I feel to stay in vintage (at least for the solo head)

SOUNDS

For style, it is imperative to be a fan of Satriani playing the head, not at all, I try and I was conquered, (I did not even know it was a signature at my purchase, clear sound was very good, but not good with emg 81 (normal is not for her) said that his pass anyway, the sound remains clear of exellent quality, be it with a gibson, ibanez or fender, the sound still retains the imprint of your microphones, these materials are very versatile vrément, I chose vrément for accuracy and sound quality, I insist on quality, j ' love all the sound of this head, I play it, pop, rock, metal, heavy, and even the gypsy or bossa, everything goes with me, for my part, I play with a deluxe ltd EC1000 , an ibanez jem 7v, I also play with a ibanez rg350 and heard a les paul studio above all I like, has the ecception of emg 81 for the clear sound, which normally

OVERALL OPINION

It's been 3 years I use it in repeats and on stage,
what is practical is the noise reduction (noise gate)
j'aprécie much the fact that there is a footswitch on amplacement reserved to the effects loop is very practical, the only thing I regret is that there have not a little reverb integrated (such as in the small combo marshall dfx) just the reverb would have been enough, but it's good vrément tro ask for stuff so complete, for my part I have a Vox Valvetronix advt60, a small marshall mgfx, a 60watts all tube marshall, mesa boogie head a solo grinding head and his cabinet, the choice of cabinet in the JSX if you can not give you the cabinet that goes with it, I board the ultra berringher stack 412, in effect I tested the mesa boogie as speaker, and it must be clear, mesa is the quality of course, but it is a speaker for the mesa mesa, so if you can not aquérir a peavey, the most sensible and economical, u best suited his style of jsx and ULTRASTACK, berringher (brand not highly reliable) and pouratnt I changed my mind about it,

for the price I pay for relatively expensive 2200 with the baffle,

but otherwise, without hesitation, I bought the same day or it is necessary, I following very satisfied.
