UTILIZATION

This amp is my god handy.

This is a "small" head down, super versatile. Easily obtained a trs good sound, I personally with a couple cabinet Ampeg Classic 15 ", nothing better for here must properly.

Its price is particulirement handy as one of the least CHRE the march!
Also recall that the IV SERIES RB SERIES is part of the Artist Gallien Krueger.
Brand coveted by our good old Flea (RHCP) and MacKagan Duff (Guns N Roses, Velvet Revolver).

Some tips are well thought of that head an asset:

Direct out front, so no need to DI
A magic button for voicing filter that helps contour and rgler prsence for 4 string or 5 string.
A mute and a "-14 db pad"
there is a way to patch a tuner (to making the front of the head).

In short, there are many way to have fun.
The knobs are classic: low - mid low - mid high - high
Add contour and prsence adding a bazaar and egg c nickel.

The finish is perfect and the look of thunder.
I put it in a rack, but this requires removing the grip on ct and I turned the front grips. All the fuss, like how you can always get better.

Question Manual everything is perfect, do not be a great Englishman to understand, yammer some "SETTING THE knobs" type style Pop Reggae Rock etc ... (I think it is just prfrable to trust his ears ... so I have no great feat this ides)

SOUNDS

The head should be low while the style is Rock, Grunge, Mtal, Pop ...
Obviously this kind of stuff ave in hand, we do not lace ...

I work on this amp with an Epiphone Thunderbird, a classic Ampeg cabinet, and a BOSS ME 50B pdalier.

The sound is very heavy, fat screed it well, to return to the flop you return to the stomach.

I put in my gnral Me 50 B mainly for the flanger, adding an effect psychdlique a solo bass-drums and overdrive to add pulse when one wants to have "more than" ( cf. vol. 11 Marshall amps in Spinal Tap: D)

This z'amis the head, I'm glad it matches the style of Monkey's Breakdown, I found an excellent quality price, the sound that comes out is excellent, it MRIT attention bassists seeking the good stuff without his pants dchirer
