* 30-watt amplifier transistors, the more powerful it looks when pushed a bit ...
* Connections: a single guitar input, footswitch input (to pass from one channel to another), a CD input (for connecting a CD player ...), a line-out. No effects loop.
* Settings in the clean channel volume (without December '), bass, treble.
* Adjusting the overdrive channel: volume (yes), severe stroke, acute.
* Effects: a very good spring reverb.
Finally, level building is a tank. If a car comes in, it will probably be worse than the amp.
UTILIZATION
* Configuration is very simple, if you can not fix is that you have not hands (and again, with the feet it must be feasible) or that you are blind. So the manual is almost non-existent but that's enough though, the more it would have been a waste of paper.
* This gives a good sound easily. It is a little trickier, but at low volume by moving the knobs in a measured way you get there very well.
SOUNDS
* I play mostly blues and rock above, with an Epiphone Les Paul Special, a Aslin Dane "The Jazz" (super scratch type ES 335) and sometimes a multi-effect X-Vamp.
* The clean sound is pretty good, bright enough without ever being nasal. With its bottom can supposedly get a crunch, but it's still very subtle crunch as ...
* The overdrive sound is excellent, very fat, very punchy and quite subtle (by then we can have against a super crunch). It is a transistor amp so do not rely on the grain of the lamps, but it's not the same price either ... The only thing is that the knob to "contour" makes the saturated sound a bit noisy and rough for my taste. So usually I leave quite low or even zero and it works very well.
* The reverb is very good too, it colors the sound so very friendly, and can be really subtle or really deep.
OVERALL OPINION
I use this amp for 7 years, and there is not much to say about it, it is very simple but very effective, and the overdrive is really great, especially for crunch sounds and Satus medium lively for a transistor amp. In addition it is extremely strong, a real tank!
I'll probably replace it with an amp lamps / modeling one of these days, but if I were starting again, without too much money, I would do that choice again! Of all the amps I tried in this price range is the only one that looks like a real amp, not a toy. You can really make music with, and that's what counts, right?
