Belfredo « My workhorse »
Published on 12/07/12 at 02:24This is a 2-channel amplifier and a half, developed by BK Butler.
The combo takes first channel circuit pedal BK Butler Chandler Tube '70s.
The second channel simply reproduces the real tube overdrive pedal to tubeworks. On the second channel, are possible to add the "stack", which is a clipping diode providing grain heavier distortion and more acute.
These two channels arrive on a floor "solid state" is meant in MOSFET reproducing a power stage lamps, famuex mosvalve.
Power 100W is announced. But this amp can send more than some competitors 100W.
A spring reverb is intéfrée directly into the amp behind the membranes.
Connectivity point of view, there is a parallel effects loop with a trimming mix and levels out in a direct line level outputs and two speakers. It is possible to connect a pedal on a stereo plug to control more mono channels, the "stack" and reverb.
UTILIZATION
Setup is simple because that is the most common. The clean channel is easy to pay. Channel 2 requires more delicacy. The "stack" gives many voices at once! Attention to the ears and at for group play.
The manual is simple but adequate. It is possible to control the electronic diagram in genzbenz, which bought the brand 15 years ago.
SOUNDS
This is an amp of blues, rock and hard rock. I never managed to get a good jazz above. For metal, pedal will be required. But in his chosen field, this is the class.
Channel 1 has a crunch that is strongly reminiscent of Fender Blackface. Channel 2 rather shady side amps English, with lots of mids and sound a bit dull. I compensate by adding a pedal to boost the treble to mount. The "stack", the sound is more open, but the grain is harder.
I love this amp for channel 1 and sticking to crunch wish.
Noise level is high, which makes for some nice neighbors, or when lowering the master, but you lose sound presence.
OVERALL OPINION
I have nearly 20 years. I tried other amps the same day. But he has earned by his tone and powerful sound, what I wanted at the time. A little too loud to play now flat.
FYI, the photo is the 2x12 version, "that I have.
