Best value: Correct
<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>What type of amplification (lamp, transistor ,...)?</strong></span>
transistor, a circuit emulating a tube sound (warmer)

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>What connection?
</strong></span> input jack, output jack for a tuner for example, but who also came to an mp3 player! A headphone jack and a switch FDD (simulates an amp + hot, so tube amp)

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>What is the power delivered?</strong></span>
15 watts

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>What are the settings, effects?
</strong></span> A clean channel volume knob, 1 volume knob + 1 knob gain overdrive channel, a switch clean / overdrive, 3 knobs Bass / Contour / Treble, 1 knob FX presets (reverb / delay / chorus / flanger) + knob FX level

UTILIZATION

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>The setup is simple?</strong></span>
yes, easy to use clear or overdrive channel with Gain, EQ, then add any effects. Simple and effective

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>The manual is clear and sufficient?</strong></span>
No need

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Do you get a good sound easy?
</strong></span> The Marshall's sound. It is not neutral. It's perfect for Blues or Rock. But do not get a pure clean sound, as it always color the sound. For my part, I like the sound it provides: Hot Blues. I said that the FDD switch is always on, and I do not play only one quarter of its maximum power, the volume of the guitar down, and I have terrible grades!

SOUNDS

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Will it fit your style of music?
</strong></span> Rock and blues (SRV, AC / DC ... quite)

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "fat ",....)?</strong></span>
Always with the FDD circuit that provides significant +: clean sounds are warm and the distorted sounds too ... but beware, I do not shoot more than 1 / 4 volume, otherwise the sound after losing the definition of death!

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>With what (s) guitar (s) or effect (s) do you play?
</strong></span> Fender Strato and there I have a blues sound that kills. Washburn Scott Ian and I have a sound that Angus Young, and a Godin XTSA for arpeggios and accompaniments own

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?</strong></span>
I do not use the FX. Possibly a little reverb but that's all. I do not push it because, given the size, but it's ugly face ca ... Within reason, it has personality and musicality.

OVERALL OPINION

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>For how long have you been using it?
</strong></span> 6 months

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Did you try many other models before getting this one?
</strong></span> Yes, all kinds of Vox DA-5 in ENGL huge

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>What thing do you like most/least about it?
</strong></span> +: Its texture, its musicality (at max 1 / 4 of its volume), and there he meets your guitar.
-: The effects that I do not because they are quite limited and not very musical, and sound with volume greater than the 1 / 4 because there is not pretty!

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>What is your opinion about the value for the price?</strong></span>
Very good, because for 90 €, to play at home or enter a beef with some friends, it has character (Blues and Rock)

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
</strong></span> Yes, no problem. Before, I had a 15 watt Line6 SPIDER and I sold, so the sound is cold and soulless (for the Blues and Rock anyway). The Roland Micro Cube is ditto. I rather advise a VOX DA-5 to repeat to you, if you are looking for more versatility, since the effects are nice and it's a chameleon in every style guitar ...
But for blues or rock, do not hesitate, this 15-watt Marshall is a bargain!
