UTILIZATION

The settings are wonderful, simple to use but for a variety of sounds unbelievable ....
Easily obtained a good sound, even a great sound, I would say because it sounds great and I think everything is possible with this beast here ...

SOUNDS

A small SDGR ibanez, bass 6 strings luthier (some homemade) mi-mi-frettless fretted with microphones Benedetti, Thum Warwick 5 string bass and all that I have passed into the hands ... its always great to rival drummers ...
Sounds to me we obtained varied according to the styles played, death metal, jazz fusion, pop-rock and reggae, in fact the fine adjustments should really have all kinds of sounds!

OVERALL OPINION

10 years and no problem (except a small component repair under warranty).
The value for money is very good, Trace Elliot returns to the market with an equivalent model but 1800 euros! (Twice what I paid for mine).

With experience, you do again this choice?
Without a doubt!! but I would take the speakers with the brand (as long as the light exiting the image of a good ampeg with wheels and handle luggage.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use, compression of treble and bass, 12 bands equalize very effective as can be assayed for his taste and other knobs as level of input and output effects of entry, passive active modulation of bass and treble equalization and different configuration, there's all

SOUNDS

I play on Jazzbass fender with a big muff and a dod envelope filter pedal, the sound is great while keeping the appearance of the low fat and round but a desire to return to our sheep, the amp will not effect the funk (great for the slap) to rock scabby and finished without any problems in the most extreme metal style 350-watt trace elliot it's about.

OVERALL OPINION

16 years not a failure, just the knobs that can spit one, and one shots Bomda basta
amp Heavy
Peavey, Hartke
16,000 francs at the time, but the quality of a sum is paid
