    FOR amp guitar or bass:
    transistor amplifier that gives the best low-to medium volume but expands what you him entrez.le a better preamp or distortion pedal. I use a jmp-1 or a Boss MT-2, and finally the bass pod xt bass behind me.
    The power has the full forli 80W, I used it with a drummer that covered it, phew!
    Output on two 12 "integrated.
    the connection is simple: two instrument inputs, a single, the other by delivering 24V of a stereo jack. Settings: volume, bass, middle and treble from 0 (nothing) to 10 (full), an inter bass or guitar (not see the difference), and an inter bright / normal (for slamming on acute) very effective .

Finally, two knobs for I do not use vibrato that seems to engage with a pedal jack on the front (left)
    I would put 8 for clarity and effectiveness of trimmings.

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration is simple you do not spend ten years to resolve, the sound is a hot medium. I played the police through the bass nightwish and ac / dc and the evanescence or ac / dc see the sixties it does not color the sound too. not too low push it saturates.
    August 1 again.

    SOUNDS

    I play it like I said with a N2 + + JMP1 or EDB605 bass pod Xt. it provides in both but I have not tested may be concert.manque punch on attack as the session "sessionette 75" that I use in bi-amp for bass.
    Versatile sound: 10

    OVERALL OPINION

    I got it 6 years ago an ad for 40 euros.
    I play for recreation is good enough for me, if I had to play in club but also probably an outdoor stage, lack of it (I would put both).
    unbeatable value for money and yes I would do the guitarist and bassist choice because now I'm happy. a score of seven for max.

    Good 80 watt solid-state amp (U80).

    Tremolo effect with intensity and speed controls.

    Gain control with a rather narrow gain range... An additional effect pedal wouldn't do any harm!!

    The volume control has no effect from 0 to 0.4... but it's not that bad!

    Bass control

    Medium control

    Treble control

    Normal/bright switch

    Instrument input plus pedal input.

    UTILIZATION

    I don't have the user's manual!

    In spite of it's two 12" speakers the response has not enough lows... but you'll quickly find a good sound!

    SOUNDS

    It doesn't match my music style that well because it hasn't got enough gain!!

    I use it with a Behringer Strat... which didn't allow me to use all the amp's possibilities!

    I'm not a tremolo effect fan but it's fun from time to time!!

    My current settings:

    Low = 10

    Mid = 6

    High = 4

    Sound = 10

    For AC/DC sound, put the high control at 7.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've been using it for one month and I'm happy because it sounds better than the Behringer Gtone 108. It provides a good clean sound and a small crunch, and you'll get a lot more possibilities with an effects pedal! I didn't test many products but I don't think I will change it!!

    Good value for money. It seems that this bulky thing was already live on stage!

    I don't think I would buy it again in the future considering it's a discontinued product!! I would buy an all-tube amp!!
