    Combo full transistor - Equipped with a Celestion guy G10D25 3535-10 "8ohm (all good Celestion)

    Conectiques: Hi or Low gain inputs - HP / Output phone

    12w into 8ohm

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple configuration

    We get a clean sound easily.

    I was just in a corner looking more psychedelic sounds and tap my foot a little, he prepared very well in the game;) I still fan lamps, but for a transistor amp it leaves a very distinctive sound and "spatial ".

    The open back provides a more distributed in space sound less directional than a closed box. The sound is also more "loudness / treble" or my other combo box. I use it mainly in HiGain but clean sound from my pedal and I put almost all the time a compressor in order to avoid saturating the transistors.

    I play with Gibson Lp Florentine Epi LP, Fender Am Special. CryBaby wah pedal Fasle, Vox stomb labIIG.

    I like its clean sound and low diffuse more "loudness". I do not like the cruncher, it saturates dishamoniquement too fast. End of the race and gain a breath of crazy flight arrives before a shame because the sound is clean.

    OVERALL OPINION

    2/3 months of use, it became my amp room.

    I found on a garbage can. I have a Vox AC4TV + cabinet, a head egnater all in full 15w lamps. Marshall is a little gift from the universe;) Fun to work other sounds;)

    + Easy to play low volumes and diffuse well in the room. Sound neutral to use the pedals. Its nice the open back. Very good speaker.
    - Nothing to say to find that my couté 2euro the plug;)

    12w tube amp with a nice bowl celestion 12 inch inside.
    3-band EQ very effective gain and volume.
    Two entrances, one High and Low, which makes the crunch more or less easily, and also affects the overall volume.
    We also have a line output, the classical sum.
    Most have been a reverb, but I quibble for nothing as it is already very good.
    Nice facade with pretty buttons.

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple to use who knows an amp, the settings are minimal, just enough for an amp of study.
    The grain is gradual at first and rises suddenly limit, sending it severe blow, but it is accompanied by a breath quite annoying, but not insurmountable, it is quite normal with such a level of gai…

    UTILIZATION

    Very simple to use who knows an amp, the settings are minimal, just enough for an amp of study.
    The grain is gradual at first and rises suddenly limit, sending it severe blow, but it is accompanied by a breath quite annoying, but not insurmountable, it is quite normal with such a level of gain, especially since I played with a telecaster (microphones so simple).
    The amp tends to be very "trebly", makes you care to drop it in general, especially as it can be very high to the point of pain!
    Otherwise, we easily obtain a plethora of sounds potable hot and well, it all approach lights, but over time you realize that it is the transistor.
    Apart from that I like the sound enough gain separate volume allows for a clean sound at high volume advantage by transistors against you will not find in a Marshall Class 5 for example, or the rise in volume is automatically accompanied by a rise in gain.

    SOUNDS

    So I am not someone who plays a lot of styles, with a strong tendency towards solos.
    As discussed above, high gain it tends towards the distortion without really being, it should be accompanied by a pedal history to reach the high-gain some want.
    For blues and rock on the other hand, nothing to say, it is very good.
    It has a lot of volume elsewhere, especially with the gain above half, enough to compete with a drummer too muscular.
    I also never use double coils, the sound is very good, very hot and you can feel the character of each guitar that branch there.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had a little over a year now, I got not too expensive, I tried Hughes & kettner edition blue that totally sucked the TWANG of my guitar, no heat and more trebly (it there is bad), if I had a fender champion 600, but the lack of equalization makes it unusable because it offers a very dull with my telecaster. The Marshall is the middle, although I always look on the side of tubes All rehearsals and concerts pub or club.
    So yes I remake this choice, for 110 euros is excellent, especially that a priori it does not run the streets.

    (I have the combo version)

    12W amplifier transistors, with: a GAIN knob, a volume, TREBLE, MIDDLE and LOW one.
    Me on my own I have only 2 inputs: HIGH and LOW

    UTILIZATION

    While setting up this amp is that simple!
    The only problem is that mine is in my first, and this amp has more 20 years, so the knobs once the trs are not useful because mine do not work anymore gain from volume and bass .

    SOUNDS

    This amp should have totally my style of music, from 60s rock like Hendrix and Cream in the 70s rock Led Zeppelin or whatever, sounds and other types of AC / DC or other ...

    with the gain knob on the bottom of a carrment fuzz! I tell you this amp has all the 60s-70s in the belly!
    on the other hand, for its clear sound uh what? Claire? J'connais not? What is it?
    Finally srieusement more, there's not really clear, the limit we put ourselves between the LOW and put the gain to 4 and 5 and the volume was the clean, but a ugly clean, clean the brief is not the strong point of this amp!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for my first two years but he has been using the 80s.
    What I like most is the sound Obviously, one wonders if it was not a JCM800 stashed in there (even a little when j'exagre) and what I like least c is that this amp has too much prsence or heat, but it's a good combo 12W transistor, so it's good plutt normal ...
    The report quality price? I do not know my first can not remember the price ...
    Xperience with, if the price of this amp is not too much so I do it again ...
