Value For Money : Excellent
80W transistor amp
Early tube emulation.
2 channels (clean and drive) with several modes
reverb, effects loop and level emulation lamp

UTILIZATION

here must be over 15 years that I have mine. I bought it after having sold a Marshall Valvestate 100, the sound did not suit me (too typed marshall).
his palette is very wide, from blues to metal to jazz and others. like any good amp, just poking a little on the set (complete what it takes) to find the sound that one seeks. versatility is well established, the number of "updates" and the number of rehearsal rooms where it is found speak for themselves! While it's still a transistor amp relatively cheap, but what amp!

SOUNDS

Having played different styles of music, the quieter the more brutal, I can assure you that this amp has adapted each time.
I have connected strats, Les Paul, rows, achtops, folk, classical and more. pani problem.
playing with the settings of the amp and guitars, we find the desired sound. clean, slamming, crunch, drive, sat and sat extreme, everything is possible!

OVERALL OPINION

After 15 years, a number of trips associated with the musician and repeated shocks over time, even when it starts to get out of breath; boosted channel emits more than a big clean and feedback is noisy. But it's only a few months he kidding, he held out until then!
I particularly like the heat that can be drawn, more than just Marshall Valvestate 100 or Hughes & Ketner Attax 80 (amps that came out at the same time on the same pricing game).
he never fails, and value for money is an exemplary product of this age.
so do it again, I would resume this amp again in a heartbeat (returning in the past, of course).
Of course, it is a transistor amp relatively cheap, so those seeking a true type or the lamp will go their way.
very very good amp! still marketed today .. further proof of reliability!
