Amp transistors end of 70 years beginning 80
200W
1 volume, bass - med - high 5-band graphic EQ +
A bright (blah, for what?)
A boost (why cut it?)
1 loop insert effect
2 HP 8 Ohms
An opportunity to boost footswitch
and that's it for the head

The Model 402 cabinet: it is two 38 inch Eminence and presto!

UTILIZATION

I call that an amp "plug 'n play"
One branch, it does everything at noon (except volume) and we play: The sound is there
The settings are off, the chart is sufficient. . . only drawback: it's heavy like a tube amp!

SOUNDS

I think we can do anything with it, I use to play blues-rock with a fretless bass (yes) and I love the sound.
Deep bass that will tie the guts, the precise and captivating mediums (fretless) and clear highs but not too necessary. . .
If you want to play with a pick to Chris Squire, it also works. . .
In short, powerful, versatile, precise. . . ah yes, the default. . . repeating, forced to put the volume to 1 (for others).

OVERALL OPINION

I'm afraid of not being truly objective, not the modern pro gear after all, but I have used it for 4 years and I do not see myself changing. . . even if I could afford. . .
I had to add wheels under the cabinet for transport (back strain) and they will soon drop. . . I will opt for the wheels of tractor later ;-)
Heavy? certainly
Large? too, but the sounds and feel are worthy of its mass.
I have been "given" to 1500F (230 €), but I returned to the same for 3 times!
