Hybrid combo amp 100 Watt RMS pramplification lamp (12AX7) and power transistors.

</ul>

<ul>

Both channels "and half" Clean / Crunch (common legalization) and Lead modes. Master and spring reverb

</ul>

<ul>

Two ales (Low and High), FX loop with mix, line out, headphone jack, two speaker outputs 8 Ohm

</ul>

<ul>

The construction is robust trs, carpentry solid (and heavy!). It's a reliable amp trs (no problem since 1995, except for taking the pdalier).

</ul>

<ul>

Rockdriver Celestion 12''

</ul>

UTILIZATION

<ul>

The configuration is relatively simple and instinctive (two channels, it is not death!). The manual is more than enough (examples might be useful rglages may be).

</ul>

<ul>

Quickly found its Search. Looking for a little longer, your exact even better, the amp is versatile trs, trs rich sounds.

</ul>

<ul>

The crunch channel shares the legalization (three bands) and the master with the clean channel, which makes its use somewhat difficult thing, at least the flies and parallle. The crunch channel demeurre excellent!

</ul>

<ul>

The Lead channel possde two modes, a gain, three bands and a legalization indpendant volume, making it really convenient and indpendant channel.

</ul>

<ul>

Channels can be pdalier switches on and the effects loop. Taking the mle pdalier is fragile, many have had to be change ...

</ul>

SOUNDS

<ul>

The clean sounds are good trs, bright and happy and almost crystalline or dry depending on the acoustic legalization.

</ul>

<ul>

Aside from the difficulty of the job is flying, the crunch channel can range from a clean MUSCL grsillant attacks on free, or sounding blues in the early AC / DC.

</ul>

<ul>

The lead channel (the thick of it!) Possde gain a glisation (3 bands), a volume spar and two modes.

</ul>

Mode 1: punk and hard rock sounds, with an efficient 4-7 win on 10, del is a bit fair to harmonics.
Mode 2: East mtal heavy, can push the gain to its limits! (Actually, I think mode 2 is a compressor, little ... prs)

Note: a critique of frquente Attax 100 concerned the limits on large saturation. This is true with the original lamp, a Groove Tube 12AX7C solves the problem and this amp gives the means to play in the field of hi-gains.

<ul>

The spring reverb is nice, provided you do not abuse it! Otherwise a serious bubble ...

</ul>

OVERALL OPINION

The first generation Attax 100 said "blue carpet" is a great rock amp rsolument (DSOL for jazz musicians who have read up to the ...).

A large variety of sounds, all good, see good rev. The bill is good quality trs.
It is versatile while concervant his characters. Hybrid technology sduisante silent, its sufficiently "light" and maintains strength and transo (one tube every ten years is not ruined). Unfortunately, this IDE is not really school, given the lack of quality product in this CATEGORY ...

The report is qualitprix excellent Obviously, it holds the comparison is pathetic to see many of the same combo power more expensive brand or "rename" (M **** all!)

This is my amp since 1995 and I do spares for anything! (Except may be a Dual Rectifier Roadster <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_lol.gif" alt="" /> But it's not the same thing ...)
