This is just an amplifier transistor.
The power is 30 watts. Sufficient to repeat or follow a drummer too nag ...
Question connectivity, guitar input jack, line out, headphone, CD / K7, effects loop, footswitch connection.
Level settings:
- Gain a clear
- Gain Distortion
- Volume distortion
- 3 EQ low - medium - high EQ -------- very effective!
- Reverb
- Master Volume
UTILIZATION
Simple to use as any amp!
This gives a very wide range of very easily with its hyper-efficient EQ!
Manual clear and sufficient. Even indicating how to get certain tones.
SOUNDS
It is exceptional !!!!!!!!!!!!
The clean sound is amazing clarity, punch and definition. It's like being almost on a Twin Reverb (with less "safe" and power of course)! But with (this is only my opinion) a less aggressive side while maintaining a superb shine. This is a great advantage for me because we just push the volume without tiring the listener.
No need to push down to get the full potential ...
You can also get a slightly crunch on the clean channel. We arrive safely in a sound with a good SRV Stratocaster (I use a Telecaster).
Just needs a little heat and it would be perfect!
For cons, I'm booked on overdrive channel. Playing more particularly the rock genre Rolling Stones or Led Zeppelin, I do not find that you get a vintage sound. Whatever EQ setting out the results we get a drink. It is better to boost the gain of the clean channel to get a great crunch!
But for all the sounds of modern distortion, no problem, it ensures proper ...
One can easily tripper Hard Rock or Metal genre Rammstein, Metallica, etc. ...
All this with a good definition and good potatoes.
+ The reverb is correct. Very good when used in reasonable proportions.
If I is 9, not 10, it is only because the channel can not overdrive at the channel clear. But it is exceptional for the price and features of the machine!
OVERALL OPINION
To summarize this amp, two words: a BOMB!!
This amp Fender managed to surpass its field of choice: clean sounds.
And he comes flying colors. At the risk of offending some purists, I can compare it to a Twin Reverb or similar recent dismantling without me! (I repeat myself - except on the power and the "trunk")
Like I said previously, there are all the characteristics of Fender amps. Ie heat, precision, definition, brightness and potatoes! Without the "excessive shine" a lot of Fender. To compare it with the equivalent of Fender products in terms of prices (Frontman 25R Frontman 65R) there's no pictures, Hughes & Kettner is much higher.
For a game distortion, we find the H & K features with its fit-in but not suitable for a rock "vintage". But otherwise, should be no problem for modern sounds.
My only complaint is a small lack of heat on boosted channel, but nothing serious.
In addition, the effectiveness of equalization that can radically change the color of sound.
To conclude:
Probably the best amp in this price range. Simply amazing and fantastic clear sound. It would almost be taken for SRV or Tony Joe White!
Also largely a clear high-end Fender with the distortion typical of HK.
It's like really on a tube amp (except for distortion). One might ask where they are stashed!
Unbeatable value for money. Competition can not to the level in the clear ...
Too bad the distortion channel is not on the pitch clear.
A must ...
