25W transistor amp into 8 ohms.
Two footswitchable channels (optional)
1 HP 10 "
an instrument input, a headphone / stereo line in jack 6.35, an entry (CD/MP3) format cinch
a volume on the clean channel
Then régalge gain and volume on the drive channel with amp simulations, so many styles of distortion, ranging from nothing (jazz) in very full.
Equalizeur 3 band, which actually acts as a volume on each slice (treble, mid, bass). If EQUAL is to 1, no sound, just 10, it saturates its clear ..
several effects available, average quality, but it helps out.
effects are at the foot switchable.
So, in my opinion, it lacks the ability to bypass the effect via a footswitch and an effects loop send / return would have been welcome.
Also a caveat regarding the effects and amp simulation. Indeed, the two potentiometers used to switch to another amp and effect to the other are not notched to mark the different stages ... Therefore it is necessary to let it ring while you run to see where we are, it's a shame. especially as for amp simulation, there are several modes by amp (4 for the British for example), so by putting the pot with the arrow on British, they had to end up with a typed his heavy, blues, or metal without knowing what it is going to give before putting a shot pick .... M ^ EMA concern for the effects ... So shame
UTILIZATION
The configuration is very very simple, the manual is very light indeed, no need to expand.
We obtain easily sounds nice in a lot of records. The only difficulty is to find them quickly, even if we took notes for the problem mentioned above. I think I'll make additional marks on it for the crossing points of an amp to another and from one end to another.
SOUNDS
Well, the style of music, it is suitable for almost everything: acoustic, jazz, blues, rock, heavy. Now need to find the sounds that go well. Obviously, there will never be with this material the sound of a real stack with two 4x12 is just a small 25 watt amp handy to carry around or to help out at home if it does not connect all the paraphernalia or wake the whole neighborhood.
I had a lot of amps, the first 'baby amp "that I took. Following the advice here I removed (perhaps wrongly) the marshall (confirmed by my dealer, its very way he says). in store so I tried this amp and a Vox DA15 .... the verdict was very very hard for the VOX. Well, it's not the same power, but good, the vox is just powerful enough to be properly heard in a room .. Well, the purpose of these amps is not to do concerts eh .. but still, the VOX 15W is really not enough. The Fender might even possibly help by repeating I think, finally, if the batter puts a little of his own.
The acoustic simulation is very nice in the process.
Be careful with my gibson, the clean channel starts to saturate if the knob of equalization are all within 5 ... (Yes, they act as gains on certain frequencies, as mentioned above), so attention to setting, but it was a very nice crystal-clear sound with the fender in the clear otherwise.
In short a great little amp for fun at home, work without connecting an amp too powerful, save the lights of his other config, etc ... Not really sound that I hate, it's a bit of everything and not too bad.
The rating takes into account the category in which this amp is changing ..
OVERALL OPINION
I bought it today, so I use it recently. However, we quickly made the rounds, it is very easy to use.
What I like: it is small, lightweight, has good sound anyway, and that's why I bought it.
What I like least is that the knobs are not notched on the modeling is ch ....
So I tried a VOX DA15 in the same category: Winner by KO: The Fender (50 euros more anyway)
Otherwise, I had plenty of other amps but not in the same style, so of course incomparable.
The value for money is extra, I got it to 220 euros in store, it is less than 200 euros nine on the net. For this price it's great, but beware, it's not for group play with a drummer eh! or so I think really unwinding, because it sends strong, but as it grows a little, the HP 10 "and 10 kg of the machine are a little weak people ...
I would do this choice with his eyes closed. Little amp really well designed. For the price the sound is there. It will allow me to go play with some friends without having to carry a rack with a 35kg 2x12 of the same weight .. Here, the guitar in one hand, the amp in the other, and I can still park at 2 km walk from where I have to go, I would suffer it. Possibility also connect me to try something on the fly at home, without having to wait for the whole mess tube is hot, and cool before cutting.
