UTILIZATION

v / previous opinions.

SOUNDS

this is something I have to give.
with the HP 10 "cheap home, this amp sounds good to do a volume" private ".
as soon as the sound goes, it does not support. And if we play the E string with double coil is a death rattle that HP is expressed ...
BUT ...
the box is large enough to mount a 12 inch! even without changing the exit hole.
I have therefore put a 12 inch jensen cheap (the series "Chicago", 75W/8ohms. And then, oh miracle, you can mount the volume, bass are collected, there's a little more air in the treble.
With this change, (cheap, I repeat, must be considered from the amp which one), this little trick is exploitable again, see them live, small place (tested and approved by the others ...)
as the bass is better managed, it is also suitable for jazz.
and as much cash effects (with 12-inch, always) you can have sounds pretty muscular, if you put in front of the offers.
do the math: a combo approx. € 170 + € 65 to 1 HP = ca. € 240 for a combo that sounds good, which is lightweight and suitable for all situations that do not require heavy artillery.
and the change is easy, you just set the new HP.
So, without amendment: 6
with Edit: 10, considering the price. (It sounds not like a twin, oh, oh ...!)

OVERALL OPINION

I had purchased as a "small m. ...", and I play it all the time!
the ideal companion for travel (the guitar in one hand, amp in the other 10 pounds, and you got the sound that you ask for?)


after, of course, there are a lot better, but at what price ... and what weight ...

with amendment, I put 10 in price / quality ratio.
