Amp headphone, running on batteries, the amPlug series.
This model is distorted, and has a delay, not adjustable, but you can disable it (fortunately, I'll be back over there later).
In terms of connectivity, we have the jack that will plug directly into the guitar (logic), a headphone jack, and an input line-out.
For settings, nothing more simple: gain, tone, volume.
UTILIZATION
As mentioned above, there are only three knobs, not enough to tear his hair.
The switch of power has 3 positions: OFF, ON, and FX. This last position activates the integrated delay. Unfortunately, it is not adjustable, so it limits the possibilities pretty quickly at that level.
For the manual, well ... an A4 sheet folded into 4 slid into the carton, which applies to the amPlug Lead and amPlug Bass and ...
Good point, one set of batteries comes with the device.
on the other hand, it's really an amp to work at home, quietly, without making shit neighborhood.
If you expect sound to a room by plugging the line in an amp, go your way!
SOUND QUALITY
I use a Gibson SG Special, with two doubles, 490R and 490T, and I leave the sound on a Sony MDR-XD300.
The sound is okay, it can play, have fun, and all this without interfering with half the house.
I play mainly metal, thrash instead. The settings are fairly easy to find, and we quickly get what you want. I rarely exceeds 4 on the gain setting.
If you want a cleaner sound, then on the other hand, we must put the gain to 1, maximum 2, with volume and play the guitar.
I noticed a breath when you go up the volume without playing. It is covered by the sound of the guitar once you start playing, so nothing dramatic.
I have not used for cons of using the delay. It can not be resolved, I still have not managed to get something to correct, apart from big shots rockabilly. But again (and I really over there), I'm really not used to manage this kind of effect!
OVERALL OPINION
I bought it last night and I had to play 3 hours total with him. I bought it because I already had the amPlug Metal, very typical, and I wanted something a little more versatile. At this level, I'm not disappointed, it happens without too much effort to have clean tones, crunch, distortion ...
The feature I like most is the possibility of playing without having to turn a big amp, and especially to play without being too crowded and without breaking the ears of the entire house.
What I like least, that's really what delay ... It puzzles me, and I think that a fourth knob to adjust even if the "tempo" of the delay was not too ... but as said above, I am not a great expert in the use of delay (not The Edge wants ...).
I still think that I would do this choice because I love the sound (without delay).
In addition to 50 euros, we will not be ruined!
