Mini amp transistor:
-Guitar input
-Headphone
Boss-kind external power input (j 'uses Diago)
-2 Push buttons: Tremolo (setting behind with a screwdriver) and echo
-3 Knob tone, gain and volume
-1 Battery compartment with a stinking sticker YOU ARE COOL in (the Danelectro touch)
-2 Speaker 8 ohms and 5 cm (2 inches, I have disassembled to see if I could fit a 10-inch inside)
Less than one watt with battery-power, a little more than it seems on food (not good it jumps between the two ears anyway)

UTILIZATION

The manual is of 4 stamps or we learn that increasing the volume loudness (yeah!!) And two settings called during Sweet potatoe pie and Private investigator (the Danelectro touch again) is increased
For sound if you like the small transistor radio of the 70 small rotten as well when you try to listen to Radio Caroline at the bottom of your bed waves' pimply teenager, you will be spoiled (if that is your madeleine Proust, buy)
I also have a Danelectro guitar and I start to wonder if I'm not the main target of the brand, wholesale vintage lovers broke, stingy or a bit stupid or even three at a time.

SOUNDS

It's almost impossible to have a clear sound at least two of my guitars (Danelectro DC 59 AGAIN and AGAIN Ibanez AS 103 with micro Gibson 57) and when it's clear it's not hard to gain the amount c ' is better, it fuzze and I got to have some feedback on the Ibanez.
The tremolo is drinking, echo type 50 nice.
The headphone that is even much better (good agreement to be worse than the hp), except for the clean is not clean.

OVERALL OPINION

I have bought two days ago after seeing it in my local store and have dreamed for 2 semaines.La disappointment is about the height of waiting (I have not taken out a loan for the buy either). The goal was to use it in the garden in the summer, just to vary the pleasures after mow to annoy the neighbors.
Obviously like any Danelectro products (again. ...) its look m 'had won, although if you look good it looks like it is made as toys given with Happy meal (a big thank you to the Chinese children ), I have of being a little naive on this one but two speakers 5cm it will never sound like a Vox lamps with a bowl of 12 (j confess I have searched the net an alternative to two inches but there I think in hindsight that it borders on insanity, I tell myself in a moment of lucidity)
Conclusion: nice to use the headset (but there are already a lot of things that do that)
For outdoor use his look will appeal to all lovers of vintage (it abounds at this time) for power chords and solo fuzzy ok, plain or with tremolo and echo you are alone and it will reach the ear and if you play with a friend of the acoustic ask him to get 50 mêtres.
