« A little cold and uneven »
Published on 01/09/11 at 11:38This 30W amp features 4 amp models, an input jack output for headphones or recording and a port for expression pedal.
UTILIZATION
The strength of this amp hand over some competitors, it is plug and play side, the possibilities are certainly limited, but the amp and the settings are very intuitive, no-brainer in sight.
The ability to save a setting for each channel is very useful, but it's a bare minimum a real plus.
SOUNDS
I mainly play metal, I bought this amp because it offers several models typed "hard". But let's review all the models:
- Clean: nothing transcendent, clear sound without character, functional but not exactly beautiful either.
- Crunch: It's not my favorite record at the ear that sounds pretty cold, I do am not retarded.
- Metal: we come to get serious, this channel is a generous distortion, similar to that used by some groups of heavy, the sound lacks a little low but still usable, less gritty than many pedals available on the market.
- Insane: A very high gain saturated distortion, it exudes a certain aggressiveness on the other hand careful not too push the gain, otherwise the sound becomes too confusing, this channel that I use primarily to provide low good rhythmic palm mute.
I do not like the effects, as often on modeling amps, you can feel the synthetic side, I'm just a little reverb.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for several years, overall the sounds are below the Vypyr of Peavy, on the other hand is much more robust and are not lost in the settings.
The sound is generally quite cold but can make the case to begin or in some records (metal if you stay reasonable on the level of distortion).
