«  Well to get into the world of lamps »

It is a hybrid amp: 1 channel all-tube and 2nd with hybrid modeling amp (pre-amp tube and transistor amplification).
On the front, there is a jack input, a / BASS TREBLE EQ, gain, volume for each channel and an effects section (DSP) with reverb, chorus, delay and Vibratone (leslie cab).
Finally, there is an HP 10 "Fender Special Design, all for a power of 15 Watts RMS.

UTILIZATION

This amp is plug-and-play: you plug, you play. The manual is very clear and quite full. One can easily get a good sound, at least at low volumes.

SOUNDS

I play mostly rock. I use a lot channel preamplifier with an overdrive pedal. The lamps are a great addition to the crunch sounds. I use the least 2nd channel modeling, although it is quite successful, especially in the clean tones and crunch. In effect, although there have typed metal sounds, it sounded very synthetic, but at least they are present. I use it with a Fender Strat Std Mexican, so I can attack me in many styles.
However, this amp is an amp working. It is not meant to be used at high volume, and it shows. As soon as you exceed the 3/10 Volume, you lose all the bass and you end up with screaming highs, and equalization changes nothing, because in fact, it is the food bowl 10 "which shows its limits. So if you want to use it as a group, are planning a 12-CAB".

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 6 months, and it was through him that I have made much progress. This amp is clearly not made for the stage, but sounds remarkably low volume ...
