Transistor 30watts, 2 channels light / saturated, headphone jack, External speaker, footswitch. HP 10 "labeled Fender (a Jensen?). The equipment is good but it makes better since.
Compact but quite heavy for size. It's tough.

UTILIZATION

Plug and play ... It's simple. It is not a super sharp gas factory.
He used to play guitar, not to spend hours looking for a sound.

SOUNDS

The equalization application has to be well worked, it is quite effective.

The clean sounds are very good for this type of amp, even at low volume. My Laney 15W tube is less rich (it changes when you push).
The overdrive channel is less successful, a little cold, difficult to get a bluesy sound or a sharp crunch in the Keith Richards. It's modern. But it depends on taste.
The reverb is bof, it lacks thickness. Correct anyway without abuse (not the surf music).
All guitars sound fine with this amp, but a good strat clean, it does.
In short, the amp gain to be used for volume "room" in the clear. With a good overdrive pedal, it's all good.
My rating: 8 for the clear, 4 for the saturation. But with a good clear sound, it always comes out.

OVERALL OPINION

I was being tested a few weeks. The clean channel I was pleasantly surprised.
If it is to play loudly in groups, there are better (a little light). For the diversity of sounds, there are better (the integrated DSP). For the price / pleasure, there's more (Behringer GM110!). But hey, that Fender is well constructed, it is honest. Too bad the look a little "modern".
I think that there is opportunity, then less than 150 euros, the plan is good and he will lose more value. But today, it takes with other products more fun, maybe more gadget.

PS: The notes compare what is comparable on the market.
