"It's a transistor amp, 15 watts, appeared before the MGDFX SERIES.
-In fact, it does not affect possde Intgr except one (very surprising) rverb spring.
-The connection is quite simple: a guitar input, a jack phones, a line-out and a CD-in, which can be used to connect a string fi, a multi-effects with amp simulator (pod, etc ....) without going through the pramp. It can be used.
_Deux Gain pots: one goes from clean to crunch (if you have the deuxime of 0), and the second is the crunch (if it was the first background ...) has a saturation drives well.
Equalizer with a treble, contour (the opposite of a mid, we put it more substance and less mids and more are a Relva bass and treble) and bass, then a master's and knob Finally a knob reverb. Classic.
-No footswitch
-Lightweight, compact.
-Sthtiquement nothing wrong, and it is solid.

UTILIZATION

Trs-easy to use, the beginners who just tends to be faster in the background. Rglages of the equalizer and gain are quite sensitive, but prcis, providing an extremely wide range of sounds, from clean to British rock crystal ... more.
So we get good sound once you have understood the need to tweak the fine, and yes, it does wonders for an amp of its size, finally, personal opinion.

-The manual is clear if only one speaks English, and some examples of rglages come help the beginners in search of his sound.

SOUNDS

-I play all styles really, but with a preferences for the metal (heavy, death, black, thrash), and yes, it is suitable for all, the palette oferta the two buttons is a real gain I think more.

-I play a Hohner Start, a Yamaha Les Paul and a Fawn Jackson Randy Rhoads. It takes into account the change of guitar, that is.

-With two gains to half you get a clean sound with a bit of grain if it itches a little harder. The Eq can switch between its own clean cold and trs (gnial has a transistor ... It has done for that matter) sound a little warmer. Some blame the amp not to be hot. I do not agree. Without being gniaux, the fact that they are open bottom that they have a lot of treble. I lower the treble a bit, reducing the contour (to increase the mids) and my sound is much fatter, a little blusy. All you get closer to the bottom of thrash, but leave the gain 2 3 / 4, the sound will be prcis or stay clean and put him in a distortion pedals.

"I like little prs all sounds except the headphone o is filthy because the signal is not smoothed by the baffle. In Adrangi not clean, but distortion, it seems we have a mat that is rubbing our ears.

"I read that you could warm it a transistor amp Gallant. I tried for myself was a bit more roundness, but it may be psychological, though I doubt it. Try it, you'll see.

He can sound trs fort, an impressive 15 watts. To play in a room, a lounge, a music room in the house, it's really not bad. I never needed Exceeds 2 on the master. If I play with a bassist, three rigor!

-The reverb is superb, bienqu'un discrte little more as you go up the gain.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 4 years now, not a single problem.
"I love the look, sound is nice, and not take up too much space, more times it is not expensive at all.
It's sometimes cold unclear if the rgler (advantage for a clean really clean point ...), and sometimes a little too rapper, we must determine the amount of gain ... Headphones: forget ...
-Because it's not the MG15DFX or MG15CDR, but G15RCD, we find opportunities for under a hundred euro I think, or 100 euros ... You pay just the brand but the sound is really correct, and it costeaud.
-I would do without this choice hsiter.
