500W preamp ECC83 (12AX7)
Amp transistors 1 x 500X

I now have the LH1000, even the powerful
1000W into 4 ohms (can be lowered to 2 ohms) bridged
Or 2 x 500 W into 2 x 4 ohm

UTILIZATION

I use the Mesa Powerhouse 210 + 115.

It is childishly simple to use.

SOUNDS

I'll be quick to cut short a lot of advice I've read in the forum.

1 / This head is making very neat inside and I do know, nickel!
2 / preamp is none other than the Fender Bassman 100 60s, that the bright channel and this is exactly the same I have plans on me.
3 / You should know the use I made a little but I quickly realized, namely:
The bass knob starts his job in 3/4, then it becomes very heavy.
The highs are clear, transparent enough

And especially the power reaches half knob, before there is nothing of a sudden the amp completely changes, they put a linear potentiometer that's why. Now that you go ahead and touch the rest, you'll understand what it's like in the belly.

Outdoor large scenes it rocks. I use it mainly with my Stingray 5 (I play more than the 5-string). I had the XL series, HyDrive, then Mesa. Nothing to say, it is different in the three disciplines.

OVERALL OPINION

5 years. Powerful growl, simple. I redo the choice since I have LH1000 (it allows me to manage the stack easier and easier to use 500W). The value for money is incomparable in my opinion, now I do not know everything.
Only default all these types of models, the weight! But it's solid.
