    This type of amp you stay with the transistor to be honest its not issue a hyper powerful sound on some amps like the JCM2000 which for me is not that great
    In terms of power is a 2 * 60 watts with a junior driver Hp rock and a vintage 30 (celestion 12 'for 2)
    Can connect the device to a computer via plug in and out stagebord to register effects loop headphone jack.
    Mesa boogie triple the simulations corrected satisfy fans of big well hard and the Warp marshall rate can be expected as the best simulation JCM2000 is pale even if a version is available on the distortion amp the Marshall Plexi 100 and 50 are also a little below what one would expect, the fender amp cons are totally succe…

    Mesa boogie triple the simulations corrected satisfy fans of big well hard and the Warp marshall rate can be expected as the best simulation JCM2000 is pale even if a version is available on the distortion amp the Marshall Plexi 100 and 50 are also a little below what one would expect, the fender amp cons are totally successful with the simulation of the tweed Bassman and 4 * 10 and a tweed Deluxe amp Roland clean perfect for jazz, there are two simulation Vox AC30 cruch.On expected to clean and the Brian May is nothing he did rather a kind of pale copy.
    level effects found Chorus Flanger Phaser Tremolo the model (in stereo) and a compressor bypass self wha wah 2 (quite successful) and a fuzz quite nice if you want to add aipaisseur son.Il is also the presence of 16 delays (ping pong, space delay, tape delay, loop-o-tap). If you want an amp for modeling studio is a great product for the very professional and hard blues. If one wants more Polivalente worth your Zenter model (which for me is the ZenAmp) but it is much more expensive

    UTILIZATION

    Configuration is very simple even children's
    If one spends time there may be "about" the sound that is his desire to go to AC / DC through Slayer or more of the blues (Jimi Hendrix fans of this amp is for you) the Fender amp is very well modeled, perhaps the main strength of this amp
    Again the manual is very rough person who made the 28 BAC will it get by very well for others it will feel just has all the buttons

    SOUNDS

    I play all styles of music rather to jazz blues with a heavy chouillat
    I use a Jackson Randy Rhoads equip Seymour Duncan pickups and j'obtient of its very close to what I hear on the record that I listen
    If we want a big Pantera its type is not necessarily being obvious to the abscence of Randall amp but the amp against mes / boogie triple rectifier is ideal for large, metallic blues man will also find their account with Fender amps and can be a marshall Plexi100
    My favorite is the modeling of the Roland clean with a slow tape delay and a fuzz effect of pushing o max and if not a Fender Tweed Deluxe amp with a stereo chorus and a delay is reached fast enough to approach the sound of pink floyd on the album "Dark Side of the Moon" and finally sound funny but not very playable with a fender tremolo bassamn grow to 3 quarts

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 6 months is a good investment for the budget moyens.La feature of this is its great apli Polivalente on all styles, but for those who would Indesca I would advise buying a ather Valvtronix of 120watts

    - 5 memory used and more with a pdalier of CONTRL.
    - For the owner of electro acoustic scratches be aware that Pipelines Limited to simulate an amp H'nK intended for them so it is possible to plug your guitar that is somewhat original and practical
    - Stereo Effects loop with volume controlable
    - Redbox 'HP H'nK intgre simulator for recording in Stereo.
    - Headphone output but its crap.
    - 3-band active EQ + prsence
    - Master gnral + CONTRL volume of patch

    At least everything is no need to carry around with various lments spars and all connections that go with it.

    UTILIZATION

    There's just plug the guitar, turn on and the possibilities are endless

    For the LORD against this kind of pb gear is the lack of pdalier CONTL of which is sold by (which really .... Lles skin, is also valid in Line 6. I rsolu taking the bp pdalier Beringher fcb 1010 (100 E used)

    Another black spot (which sometimes is not one for some) is the absence of more rglage prcis for Effects (RULES on the level of the effect and basta, but in 'ens bp is not effective).

    I use it at home in my room and down volume RPET half, the power is in the Stereo at that. In fact, I have noticed that the sound gaining momentum more it is pushed, the DSP used for Systm modlisation is also defined mulate each floor of amplification of amplifier lamps, o This may be phnomne.

    SOUNDS

    I play a little bit of everything: the metal (bcp), rock, blues and trip a little more noise, so versatility is a must so it is in that IDAL. Is there a way to do everything with. I'm not going to make an inventory of all the possible sounds it would be long and tedious. I will confine those I prfre.

    The clean sounds are sincrement stunning, including a couple that JC roland chorus Stereo allows you to type in DLIR is jazzy and even more metal sound (sound of James Heitfield). Bcp warmer fender and the vox are not left out, and whatever it is tjs possible to connect your guitar acoustic bnficiant effects incorporated.

    The crunch is not bad, but not a big fan n'tant I can not speak, I know I dj surprised to find the sound of Hendrix Plexi 50W simulation with a single scratch coil (neck microphone) and a slightly retro effect Fawn phaser lightweight.

    Time to distos.Selon me the distortion of the mesa is really well done (see the samples on the site H'n K) => big big sound, but my prfre remains one that is clean amp (Hot Californiat) is a lead that clean the Rapel Marshall JCM 800 and once with the booster effect Treeble boost or Tube sream can reach such a good registry metal (according gun's, Zakk Wylde, Slayer), and lowering the volume microphones are really ways to find a pure clean sound also sometimes I do not use my BPS pdalier, am I doing this and I disto any module with microphones my guitar.
    Parcontre the modern marshall distortion are less powerful they are good but sound a little transistor.
    The warp recess 7 is well done but I do not use it because it is full of too low and is not (the image of loriginal) trs own, I leave for a follower of death 'n core that are in need of rev (too) big sound.

    I wish that prciser qualisation can make the most of each sound because it is really effective trs trs (mulate the objective of also the interaction of the amp knobs original) and often settle for a qualisation V is far from sufficient

    OVERALL OPINION

    It is a choice that I reffer without pb especially since the price drop. This is the best gear for those who know not what is their's or those who are in need of versatility, while having the pleasure of playing on a sturdy well-known brand and quality.

    Indeed when you see the component in it (red box, HPcelestion Vintage 30) and when onregarde the current selling price is a bargain.

    Regarding competition GoJ could compare it to line 6 spider, and those they are weak and prsence and the rest was the right couple of real true formulation, and as for the Flextone which is closer (the component quality and less, they are more expensive power dsormais bcp scabies). As against the vox seem fine but I could not compare, and they are even more expensive.

    UTILIZATION

    Simple Config
    : You still have to spend time there because the possibilities are endless. Do not rely on the presets that are most real stews!

    manual very clear but we do not care one bit! ;)
    a try, especially in an isolated room with time to tinker, because the bike will not sound so easily.

    SOUNDS

    It is perfect for my style (metal, blues, folk)
    it is more than versatile, the sound modules that can be scary to some (coldness) are due to the quality (of course) of 30 + vintage rock diver completely different.

    I love all the sounds, crunchy and well slam the opportunity to stick the tube screamer is really sending the potato. or a little fuzz that were also found.
    the sounds are super heavy metal and can not be pushed because they are too powerful. (Gain Level)
    the light are beautiful Bonnen heat and acoustic clarity and crystalline potato on roland. The stereo chorus is deadly! ;)

    OVERALL OPINION

    For almost six months.

    compromise between the quality of the speakers + vontage rockdriver possibilities and make him an amp of hell, ultra versatile, and quality of the amp is very good, it's been really tough as a bike. it not heat, does not move and waiting to send the weld. for those who think he saw his lack of potato 2x60W, I branch out recording on a power sono am all links have a 4x12 I'm going up to 30 vintage. ca sends the really hard. no loss of quality with a watermelon from hell.
    I pourtan, t had a lot of amps, marshall and the other with my Soldano, this st the only one who has the smart. emme test by you with other types of sounds, you'll see! ;)

    A flat in the amount of breath for recording sounds in metal and greasy, too bad it is not equipped with a reducer of breath.
    The only negative is that I give.

    The value for money will roust put a lot of other brands that have misjudged the technique of HK.

    the very good cam, live, studio and repeated, it sends really hard!
    small problem with the effect settings, a little simple, but that price must be paid for his big brother mister Zenta and c is not wins (2800euros), but by addressing it well, you get an incredible range of sounds.
    I think it's better to take vau z-borad as it can store 125 programs, instead of a 5 offer on the amp, especially since it allows moult other possibilities (see z test board I think) (I AIS yet)
    9 I note as a whole would be the pefect 10 does not exist.
    really we have to stop breaking the bank with your pedals and your ultra expensive amps, the uncorked a shit no problem! pout I'm very focused on quality and this is the only one who holds the road with my Soldano tube (something else but good)
    the very very very good stuff!
    and I'm still kind of boring super customer who blew up the amp has flat out to try, as much to a man not to amp? hehe!
