No need to detail the characteristics discussed many times previously.

UTILIZATION

Nothing is easier, the volume knobs, tone, drive, clean, reverb, ..

Its clear
Good clear sound is the highlight of this amp is the trademark of Fender.

Drive sound:
This amp has a drive should not grow beyond 3 in which case you end up with a sound honeycomb therefore particularly unpleasant to listen. When I play saturated the drive is set between 1 and 2 any more.

SOUNDS

I play with a Fender Stratocaster and a Cort CRS2800 (config HSS), the sounds come out pretty well clear, crystalline, with snapping or by setting the tone knobs, one arrives at all (blues, jazz, rock.). The sound will fluctuate depending on the guitar that you will!

Nothing to say about the clean sounds, for against, the distorted sounds are to be avoided, if you do the blues, pop, jazz, this amp is very good (for clean sounds) but if you have a core of hard-rocker metalhead , do not buy this amp, you will be frustrated.

I love this amp for home use, and avoids the neighbors to enter the long sessions of the neighbor guitarist :-)

You plug a CD player, MP3, and ex you practice without shaking the walls, it is very much his office for that! Amp for all in training at home.

The rating corresponds to a quality / price / power

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2-3 years now and regularly to practice my standards on the blues, jazz, rock. Clear sound very respectable. The Drive is OK if you do not exceed Level 3.
I tried this model in its class, and I recommend before you buy to try several brands, I had no opportunity at the time, and I bought on a whim.
Quality / price ratio good enough for a 15 W transistor.
Honestly, if I had the choice to test other, I would perhaps not take this model, I decided on a Peavey or Marshall or Line 6 15W. Originally, I was looking for a low power amp to train at home because I have a Peavey Classic 30, but in an apartment, this amp is a powerhouse. So I was looking for a little amp and I came across this Fender Frontman 15R and reverb, who spoke for 2-3 years and I intend to sell to finance another material.
