60 watt transistors
2 inputs, 1 jack and XLR clasiique or jack with phantom power supply integrated, can be deactivated by a small knob next to it ..
line outputs, headphone, DI, ..
reverb and delay small integrated possibility of an outer loop ..

UTILIZATION

Very simple, basically you plug the instrument, adjust volume and EQ, a bit of reverb (in an apartment is better) and that's it .. good, depending on the instrument plugged in, there are small adjustments to make but nothing too terrible

the manual is very concise but more than adequate, not completely useless for a first use anyway ..

SOUNDS

So I tested it with different instruments and the price of a few small adjustments on the EQ and gain, it quickly finds the best possible sound of the instrument in question ..

-With a yamaha nylon string, I can tweak a little, but by reducing the bass and midrange is very convincing; critallin, clear .. lack can be a bit of heat, but it must be due to the instrument ..
Then, a gretsch 6040 with large pulleys mesh dish, so rather dedicated to jazz .. there by against the sound is excellent right now, ranging from a grain very mellow sound to a "gypsy" always based on the equalization .. much better than my old marshall (ok, it's not a reference for clean sounds ..)
Then electro-valley and blues, then there is the top, all the nuances of the game and the instrument are made, means the wood, rubbing your fingers, be it picking, simple accompaniment, that happiness!
- To finish a LGXT godin (Seymour) Same, beautiful clear sound very jazzy in the neck position, stratabound in easel, with all possible intermediate ..

I am not fun to stick a distortion on it, so no opinion on it ..

I will complete the opinion section for the song when I made some recordings ..

OVERALL OPINION

So after a few hours of use, my opinion is necessarily incomplete, but say that the amp seems to correspond to my expectations, a true and warm acoustic sound, even at low volume .. of course if you plug a pan, there will be a very nice sound pan .. logic.

I tried other amps, certainly less expensive, but honestly, I did not see the difference with the clean channel of a conventional transistor amplifier ..

I got nine to 750 euros, and I do not think there on the market a better product at this price .. to follow after a few months of use
