All user reviews of 4/5 for the Crate GX15R

I aquired this amp at the music station in oldenburg/germany for $150.

I like especially the clean sound no pops, no crunches, its sounds fu**ing clean, and with the implemented reverb its sounds double genius, it also has distortion and an headphone and speaker output, its so cool for this little price, not just for beginners. sure, its nothing for the stage but at home it can rock.

It does a lot of screaming when its distorted and turned loud, also when reverb is turned more than half way, but you can fix it, if its stands away from walls. the distortion sounds a bit like it would be played in the room next to you, too less treble and dryness in it, and zou cant fix it with the treble or bass control on the amp, then it would sound really bad, for this problem i bought the danelectro black coffee pedal, it can fix it real good.

its really solid. on my one the skin starts to peel off, altough its just a half year old, maybe thats because i transported it uncovered in wet weather.

If you dont search an amp with really good distortion, this is your amp for practising at home or a little jam session, the distortion is not bad, but there are better ones. with the reverb and the distortion, you can reach a sound, very close to santanas samba pa ti. you wont regret this one.

So a 15 wa p'tit between transistors with a jack, a cd, and a line out I think ...
It has a clean channel and overdrive has a stack ...

UTILIZATION

As for the config there is no concern of plug and play, you turn the knobs to max you got a crystal clean sound very nice typical metal (well clean metal ^ ^), you fools in the middle, a ta his bluesy nice round greasy, friendly, and you fools all zero ... in fact you fools not all zero.

I had no hand being given that this amp is a gift from a friend ... but there's no problem.

SOUNDS

Then:

In fact I use this amp in Parallel with Marshmall VS100. The marshall is responsible for the distortion venere (ave a ton of effects including Warp Factor, Equa, multi, reverbs and other ...), and Crate handles it sounds clean. I toggle between two amps ac an A / B of the practices (behringer thank you!). The clean sound is his forte! I find real pleasure and delight to hear. The reverb is quite his job, but strangely she emits a big buzz when I was up more than three quarters ... weird.

So I will not speak of the channel distortion, which is simply a stack. No potato, its a cold, no way out a palm worthy of the name, or type a solo is emetic. Even the saturation of Darkthrone or Mayhem on the "Live in Leipzig" is better ...

OVERALL OPINION

Actually I have two years, but I'm using that I sinc my channel selector A / B, ie for a week.

MIAM clear sound.
The saturation BLOUARK.

The level it would rival my Marshall for clean sounds, so franchemen well.
I do not know the price, but it seems to me that the report is correct.
