Amp hybrid penultimate generation in Marshall: tube preamp and amp transistors. The 100W (4 ohms) are present. The HP 12 'Marshall in cash and plans very well sound. There is a connection for effects loop, headphone ... and especially to connect a second cabinet, such as a 2x12 '. And then the sound becomes really huge.
Three selectable channels via a crank: clear, OD1 (saturation coarse-grained to the former) and OD2 (very metal distortion).
Add to that a real (small) spring reverb! It's better than most digital tinkering.
I put 8 / 10 for price / performance ratio.
UTILIZATION
It's easier than the new AVT series, because there is no onboard digital effects (good, sounds really synthetic, you have to like). It's easy to find her:
. clear channel, the key gives a nice bright terrain very vintage
. on OD2, the palette of sound is very broad. It is very close to the JCM. Connect your SG or Les Paul on it and that your deposit.
SOUNDS
Personally, playing punk rock or garage, I was filled. Frankly, with this amp, no interest to add a distortion pedal, but one tube distortion that adds more to the amp.
Interestingly, clear + channel function and bright reverb give you a thoroughly cleanse his sixties, vintage desire to play surf-rock, for example. This is well above or a Fender Frontman Dynatouch in this area.
OVERALL OPINION
I play on it intermittently for over ten years and it gives me a great amp to do everything, repeated use in and on stage with his Marshall typed and robustness. Really a good investment.
I come back:
. robustness. The receiver, worn by a friend as a full-oyster, broke his mouth and still works at the hair.
. sound. Frankly, penniless young Scrooge, an old Valvestate prefer a nine MG whose sound is less rich and Péchu (no lamp and digital).
As soon as I feel like itches, it's him that I turn in my basement.
Decidedly one of my best musical investments: 4200F at the time (new € 620?). It seems that according to the state, it is trading between 100 to € 200 today. To change the lamp preamp, open, but this lamp will cost € 10 or 15 max. The knobs are changed so easily.
8 / 10 for the report service / price
