What kind of amplification (lamp, transistor ,...)?
Transistor.
What connection?
6.5 Input Jack, Switch with Active / Passive depending on your bass, a headphone output, output preamp-out jack and an XLR line output.
What is the power delivered?
100 Watts, which is suitable for playing in small clubs and rehearsal studios.
What are the settings, the effects?
In terms of settings, there is a volume, a compression with a switch that lights up and runs with a button, a 5-band EQ from 50 Hz to 12 kHz.
UTILIZATION
The configuration is it simple?
Simple as pie, no need of reading the doc technique to understand how it works ...
The manual is clear and sufficient?
With or without it is the same, given the simplicity about it.
Do you get a good sound easy?
Yes, plug and play, after it is a matter of taste, the sound is simple and straight (that's what I prefer ...), no fuss, if you have a good bass, you have a good sound ...
SOUNDS
Right for your style of music?
For jazz, funk and other music genre, it is perfect.
By-cons for rock, pop rock or metal but rather a tube amp for you ...
What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
A lot of bass, medium and treble, so fairly balanced in all frequencies for such a small amp ...
With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
I play with a copy Fodera Emperor II 6-string (active), a Tobias Toby Pro 5 (active)
and also another copy signature Fodera Matthew Garrison (active).
I use effects such as a V-Bass and GR-20 Roland pedal and a DOD FX 22 Vibrothang Vibrato.
What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
Nothing to say the sound is perfect for me, after that everyone's tastes ...
OVERALL OPINION
How long have you use it?
Since four months.
Have you tried many other models before buying it?
Yes, but I was looking for a portable amp and sounds.
With experience, you do again this choice?
Without hesitation ...
What is so special that you like most and least?
I like its modern and sober at the time, the fact that it is not cumbersome and it sounds despite it size and weight (11kg).
How would you rate the quality / price?
The price / quality ratio is very interesting, it is found on average between 550 and 650 €, but a thorough search on the internet you can find it even cheaper (I paid € 400 new, shipping included from a reseller eBay Italy).
