Many connections, two inputs:

- Acoustic/electric guitar

- Electric guitar/mic (XLR/jack)

3-band EQ, chorus, reverb, feedback killer, etc. Separate 3-band channel EQs.

UTILIZATION

Clear configuration. Personally, I don't change my settings that often.

Enough output power to play guitar and sing at home.

Clear user's manual.

Very good acoustic sound (its core application). Average electric sound.

SOUNDS

Very good for an electro-acoustic guitar, less so for an electric guitar (the sound seems to be damped compared to my very dynamic Fender amp).

I play it with a Parkwood guitar with a Fishman preamp. The sound is very good: crystal-clear and well-balanced.

I also use a hybrid Parkwood but the amp doesn't perform that good with magnetic pickups.

I don't fool around too much with the settings, once I found a good sound, I don't mess with it anymore!

OVERALL OPINION

I've been using it for one month.

It comes with a transport cover but the amp is quite heavy!!!

With its numerous settings it can be used in many different rooms.

Expensive amp but exceptional acoustic sound.

Convenient mic input.

Average sound with electric guitars. It's an additional feature but don't buy this amp thinking it can replace an electric guitar amp.

Pros: Very good acoustic sound. Lots of settings. Effective feedback killer.

Cons: price and average sound with an electric guitar.
