    Bought in a pack with a guitar on the site thomman (www.thomann.de (http://www.thomann.de))

    Combo guitar speaker 40W into 4 ohms, 20W into 8 ohms. Price: € 99. Weight: 10Kg announced on the cardboard.

    Input 2: A "High" for instruments and a "Low" for CD etc. (I did not know enough to be more precise, it is what it says in the manual)

    3 Outputs: Speaker out, line out and headphone

    Equalizer: Treble, Middle, Bass

    Overdrive Mode with adjustable gain and volume.

    Reverb

    UTILIZATION

    Let's start with the manual: An A4 page folded in half in English ... It's a bit short ... Since this is my first amp, there is more than 'put your hands in it' as they say

    UTILIZATION

    Let's start with the manual: An A4 page folded in half in English ... It's a bit short ... Since this is my first amp, there is more than 'put your hands in it' as they say

    I play with a Harley Benton HBL400BK (I told you I bought a pack: P). With 40Watts, volume output is very good and enough for me. It can play plain or saturated, no matter what it spits!

    SOUNDS

    I play mostly rock, heavy, metal. The range of sound is varied, one can have a bluesy sound as greasy and dirty.

    I think with an effects pedal in addition, it could widen its register.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been 2 months I bought this amp. It is sturdy and fits me perfectly.

    But beware, this is my first amp. I bought this pack for not buying a pack or Berhinger Squier, and for an amp that I could keep a little longer. I got what I wanted. So for me a very good value for money and it satisfies me.

    It's a transistor amp 40wat, hp 10 ", two input (low and high), headphone, line out and external speaker output.
    It has a 3-band EQ, and reverb, volume per channel.

    UTILIZATION

    There is nothing more simple, it's an amp which is aluminum, the rule is played, nothing more!
    The sound is really not bad, and the output level is good (you can easily get an earful!), The manual is very brief, but when you know you do not even read it ...
    -1 For the manual

    SOUNDS

    It is versatile but you can not have much of a heavy metal sound without pedals!
    He is correct in all frequencies, I like less its medium, I use it often with an equalization v.

    It does not really feature, the price is good value for what is often the highlight of harley benton.
    I would definitely choose the referrer, the price is very interesting.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use this amp for 9 months and I just bought myself a new Marshall AVT 150 Valvestate 2000 150W and it has nothing to do but when I keep the same amp as it is versatile and above all is very easy to transport ...
