All lamps, 200 Watts.
18.5 Kg (30Kg against a Fender bassman Silverface!)
see post below.
UTILIZATION
The configuration is done well, no equalizer complicated, most of the time is difficult to use for someone untrained, and gives the aesthetics of a gas plant. Of knobs to turn, that really work with the ability to adjust the gain for a good crunchy sound! ... we obviously can not get with transistor amps, or even hybrids. Having owned a Hartke 3500, an Ampeg SVT 3 pro, having played on a V4BH Ampeg SVT 4 Pro, I find the Traynor much better just because you can get a natural saturation (I have not obtained with the V4BH that plus I think lack of power).
Side finish, no complaints ... it seems to be builded to last.
Convenient handles on the side flap.
The weight has convinced me, 18.5 Kg remain reasonable for my little back
SOUNDS
I play in an indie pop on an old United States with a precision cabinet Ampeg 410 HLF ... the sound is just incredible ...
One can easily switch between the fat crystal clear sound while keeping power.
OVERALL OPINION
I bought six months ago for 815 euros on the internet.
I frankly do not account for sale, unlike many amps I had.
Good quality tube sound for the price of a transistor ... it provides food for thought!
I think if I had to collect bass amps, it would be: all-tube Ampeg SVT, Orange AD 200 all lamps, not to mention a good old Fender Bassman 100 W Silverface ... Traynor YBA and 200!
In short, buy an amp with eyes closed because it combines the three attributes: power, RELIABLE, sound!
