Value For Money : Excellent
Kustom Tube 12
preamp has 12ax7b lamp (made in china)
12 watts (they are all the!)
headphone, and line hp
single channel with gain switch and a switch to dig the mids

UTILIZATION

There's no simpler, very intuitive in search of his
no need for manual

SOUNDS

I play mostly blues and reggae sound is so clear I'm interested
and it is good, especially for an amp of this price
I have an ibanez sz320 (HH) and very well respected amp sonotité nature of the instrument, it's pretty short and transparent dynamic enough to experience the subtleties in the game
equalizer is effective and mid switch significantly changes the sound, so playing on the pickups and knobs found rather nice warm sound muffled even with my guitar. I use my little korg AX3G to have some effects, especially the reverb that is lacking but it is not very disabled
however sound like too much saturated grain, too vintage for my taste, the crunch between the two is quite usable

OVERALL OPINION

Two weeks of use, perfect for carrying around (small and light)
excellent value for money
I changed the original lamp with a 12AX7 ECC83 dd that gives a little more gain, I can still try other but the difference is subtle, not major changes but a little more body
I still think I make a cabinet with a 10 hp, like celestion tube 10 or a jensen mod story really see what he is capable of fully pushed into a corner
