Value For Money :
Excellent
Everything is already said to a lamp preamp + 2 power tubes, but full of transistors around, it is far from an all-tube, but the concept that wants it. HP 10 inches wide and effective enough.
UTILIZATION
For this type of amp, the challenge is to navigate among the various presets available. They are numbered from 1 to 16, it must appeal to his memory to know which number corresponds to what, not very practical. A table included in the manual, it is better to keep it below the elbow at the beginning. Fortunately, the ranking appears quite logical quickly.
In the panel, there is a sound for everyone, it's not hard to find one that fits best. But depending on the use of the hall and asked the volume, another sound can be more efficient, which makes this amp really versatile. And 15W, the volume is sufficient to play and be heard with a group, albeit at a power setting closer to 10 than 1.
SOUNDS
This amp suits me very well, especially for that price.
Quibble: The volume control is pretty tricky if one wants to play at low volume, large must touch the volume pot rather than turn it frankly not to be too strong.
Major criticism: according to the preset ("voice") selected, the volume is very different, it's definitely better to adopt one, or choose one at the scales, and not touch it, rather hope can easily change its between 2 pieces.
Strong point: the presence of an effects module that allows to change some of the usual reverb (my favorite: reverb + delay together). To me the reverb is a bit too synthetic. And again, the determination of the effect is to refine according to the chosen effect.
OVERALL OPINION
I tried several small amps, including the recent Fender Mustang, which reconciled me with the amp modeling. But the price too low made me doubt its reliability and build quality, so I opted for the superfield, and frankly I'm not disappointed, although I would have liked to dispose of adjustment of delay time as the Mustang.
Very good value for money.
