2 watt amplifier while plastoc, 2 channels clean / OD, Tone, Volume, headphone. Alim by 9v battery or power supply type of effect pedal.
Between a guitar.

UTILIZATION

Config simple.

SOUNDS

Portable and robust, usable on battery or AC power (cool).
So I return to my tui electric guitar with an effects pedal (OD), an adapter and a garland. It allows me to carry everything in a box and play anywhere (with batteries or AC power).
The sound is clear enough crappy and the volume is too low, I leave all the time on OD switch, tone background.
The volume on this channel is sufficient, the crunch increases with the volume going to clear big crunch, the sound is quite cudgel with very little low (normal given the size of HP), but nevertheless have playable. I use most often with an OD pedal Bluesbreaker Marshall II. The sound is very nice with the pedal, you can really have fun at home.
By using the boost mode of the pedal pushed to the crunch from the amp, it has a fuzz of Hendrix espce likeable.

The sound through headphones is really dgueu on the other hand, a real honeycomb crunch!
The volume is sufficient to play with other guitarists.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 6 months before I had the equivalent at Dean Markley, but he ended up breaking.
I thought the two amps would be similar but in fact the Marshall sounds a little better, the sound is richer Surprisingly, it looks solid.
The only downside is the clean, non-existent, and the sound through headphones.
I like this lil amp that I can play anywhere. It would be perfect if it was already the sound of the pedal in, basically a crunch pushed over a lower volume, but for the price (50 new in stores) is d j nice.
