UTILIZATION

Configuration and simple and effective.

SOUNDS

It's a versatile amp that provides large saturations. The clean sounds are not great. I use this amp with an Epiphone Les Paul standard and a gibson les paul studio. BPS when I home alone, I use all three channels of the amp and a distortion pedals expandora. sounds like the fat billy gibbons and dfouler me from time to time on the hard / metal, which is possible with this amp.
But when I RPET with a group, I use only the clean channel with a good distortion pedals. Indeed, the natural distortion of this amp is difficult to use in groups. The 100w is the well but soon found himself pushing the volume to del reasonable to agree to play while Gnant everyone. In sum, we obtain a slurry indigestible full of serious and low mdium. This impression is reinforced by the lack of dynamic notorious of this amp which is not even an amp with any lamp.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this amp for a 10aine of years without REALLY be satisfied. It makes perfect illusion if you play alone in either and you have the possibility to push the volume, but we want to play in groups things get complicated.
I wait to change it to go on a marshall vintage modern, which I think will suit me better.
The quality price ratio remains correct.
With exprience, I do not do it again may be the choice and went to a plutt lamp 50w amp (100w are difficult to use even by the most rabid of mtaleux
