«  Good start but ... »

Audience: Beginners
It is a small combo that as 15W transistor. There is a handy auxiliary input (the red and white), a jack, a headphone jack: perfect for beginners.
The amp has 6 knobs and a little magic button.
-Normal volume for the clean
A gain-
-The magic button to switch drive (read crunch / distortion)
-A volume to drive
A knob-Treeble
A knob-middle
A knob-bass
and of course the ON / OFF

for simplicity and functionality that are good, I put 7

UTILIZATION

The configuration could not be easier, turn the volume knob to deliver the desired power is adjusted equalizer with his little knobs Treeble, middle and bass and roll my chicken. Especially we forget the gain (between 5 and 10 in general) and Roll!!
We obtain easily a good sound because the settings are extremely simple.
I do not remember the manual but I do not think it is very useful
Beware though, after 6 years of use, my amp I was literally depressed. He fell down, impossible to draw anything since. Damage.

I would have been 8 but failed after 6 years of use forced me to reconsider my appreciation to 6.

SOUNDS

No mystery, no one buys Fender to Marshall and vice versa. The sounds are pretty good cleans, the crunch and suitable distos fair. After that it should not be forgotten that it is to begin and the amp is designed for small budgets.
For value for money I think sounds really good. The cleans are kind of crystalline and screaming Crunches. I'm not talking about distos. If this is what you want, go with Marshall or Peavey, you will be delighted.
Connected with my strat, I really appreciate the cleans and crunches. Lag Arkane 2000 with my Master, only cleans are good.
In short, sounds good little amp for cleans and crunch correct, I put 7 in relation to price.

OVERALL OPINION

So I used for 6 years (then crashed). This was my first amp so obviously nostalgia operates, I had not had the opportunity to use or test other amps before.
What I like most is the ease of use when it starts very valuable and we know nothing.
I do not like the sounds distos and unreliable (a friend had the same concern as me after only two years).
I judge quite good value for money but I think in hindsight it is much better especially in Peavey Rolland and not to mention.

I put logically a 7.
