Published on 11/07/01 at 15:00I have a marshall rack, with a jmp-1, jfx-1 and 9200. But it wasn´t very practical to take for some gigs. So i looked for a medium combo, wich could give me also a good stage sound. I went to a friend of my who owns a musicstore, and he told me to take a try with this one. I paid about $500.
The sound!! Is amaizing. I enjoy is flexibility. I play mostly with a Ibanez PM120, an the jazz sound it´s impressive, so warm.. and it can be played loud with no distorcion. I own also an american fender stratocaster with lace sensor pickups and this baby can also rocks, with some blues, or country. The features are: clean channel is a legitimate clean, with a seperate volume level, and seperate three band EQ. The OD channel has a gain and master control, and a seperate three band EQ. There are two master volumes that can be selected by footswitch, giving you two volume levels for clean, and two volume levels for OD. There is a master presence, an effect loop with adjustable level, and reverb. Also, a boost button that is footswitchable. The boost only affects the OD channel and gives it a slightly more raspy crunch. It has a ton of tones, with heavy crunch and a legitimate clean. The footswitchable dual master levels is a great feature.
Nothing ... it's a perfect combo amp!
This amp is well contructed. Look like it can take a licking and keep on jamming! The coners are well protected, and it looks good. I am travelling with it always, and still with no trouble.
Buy it! well i´m not sure, if H&K are still making this model, but i´m sure that the new ones, should be as great as this.
I am also looking forward to buy another amp like this to make a stereo sound.
