    This amp transistor worth dtour. In addition, it is the Transtube SERIES.
    For only 15 watts, you may return the room because obviously it is more dstine use "home".
    1 input, 1 headphone, line input (CD, K7 ...)
    two channels: -1: rglage gain
    -2: Rglage dupost gain and the pr
    For Both: qualiseurs 3 bands
    New (I have the old models): a modern switch / vitage. What?

    UTILIZATION

    A guitar amp what is most simple, fairly neutral, and with a panel of the saturated interresting (mtal good distortion but also good blues overdrive).
    A manual, for what?

    Whether with a Start or a Les Paul, a PRS should not, just enough to agree to play ...
    I manage to get good sound Mtal (no pre-and medium gain, severe and aig donf) as a crunchy blues sound (just a half course), or plain enjoyable Unson (severe and aig 2H, 10H medium), etc. ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    ATTENTION: small comment, though Peavey is a trademark of trs good quality and strong evidence to my input now a false contact, Ngligence from me? I wanted to report it.
    It is true that even when one has good ten years that I have but the price I do not think there is better.

    OVERALL OPINION

    My ct I pay 60 There's a dj p'tit moment and frankly I am quite pleased. Its 15 W are even a little too much to play apartment. Given the size, power and price of the amp, it is hard to beat unless you want to invest 100 supplmentaires.

    - Ac amplifier that was not on beaocup choice but I liked the sound well and good trash sometimes acute

    OVERALL OPINION

    - I do not use more but I use 2 years
    - I loved the powerful of this amp (for a 15 watt) but I did not like the diffrence in volume when I spent an effect to another and I knew jms well have a good equivalence
    - The price I got a 100 euro (it was $ 150 was the era) c'tait for me a pretty good deal and it is + mtn forty euros less CHRE then: Notice beginners go for it and do not be fooled by the amp (rotting) of Xp

    That says it all

    UTILIZATION

    The use is very simple, I never touch an amp before this one, and I did not have too much trouble to me.

    SOUNDS

    O It is the weak point, good on the one hand it is a low cost amp, but all the same Peavey is a great brand and I admit I t of the flat sound of this amp, though I have used with various guitars and effects of good quality but nothing happens, the sound has no personality trs little depth, I'm from .

    OVERALL OPINION

    This is just the average, say that it is a good qualitprix that to start as I did, why not, but you will spare gear to fast for a better sound.

    - Never had any manual way to do a manual for koi?

    SOUNDS

    - It suits my style because I use a multi-effect pedals but otherwise I do not think ...
    I use it with a Jackson JS30 and a epiphone special model (yeah I c nothing very violent but you do with a. Skon lol)
    It crystal clear sound in saturated forget. fat too. the distortion is pretty weird at first I was very good but I just change my mind trying other amps.
    I prefer the sound clean and crunch ki are in my opinion the only correct k'on sounds can come out of this amp. but it is important to formalize as much worse amp.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have used it for a year in my dorm room
    I like c-ske k'il is small and not very heavy portable
    I do not like too-ske c volume control below 5 means nothing and c above too hard ... must go to the tenth degree ... lol
    - The quality / price ratio is hard to beat look not too bad an amp is less than € 100 I think ke yen has not mass.
    - But I do not think I ke referrer choice. j'obterrai for a more powerful amp (and therefore more expensive) can be a marshall.

    - How long have you use it?

    I use it for about 6 months he was buying a rock duros reindeer for about € 100. it's a bit more expensive than average but has seen duros prices are quite high that still corect.

    - What is so special that you like most and least?

    Special features I like the least? I pence as the color of the lamp and a simulation not too convincing.

These knob égalment are very very very very sensitive they must be turned in 1 / 10 of mm, nan nan is not an image.

    The Special features I like most is the easy to use: (in order of lever knob of gad etc.) a clear sound volume, switch clean / lead, a prégain, post a gain, the switch " vintage "or" modern "and a 3-band equalizer.
    It is also very powerful sansproblermes it competes with my battery or amp scratch that plays on a 25w.
    I will contradict myself but at the same time it is still strong enough I lug around several times in the rain coming out of high school and there was no any problem.

    - Have you tried many other models before buying it?

    since this is my first amp and I had a grant more than limited at that time I did not have much choice so it is the only one I try (at time of purchase of course)

    - How would you rate the quality / price?

    I pence it is one of the best quality RAPORT market prices for the beginner like me who has a limited budget is ideal.

    - With experience, you do again this choice? ...

    I nan pence price I would have a more powerful amplifier with a very fonctionalitée allowing me such a head grabdepolivalence v AMPIRE or line 6.

    There's a button that gives a vintage vintage sound (and yeah), Global Warming ca senior medium. (Never used)
    Warning! volume lev just the sound becomes all ugly, there's breath (when playing with other instruments, it can pass inaperu) becomes saturated and any dirty (frying). Therefore only be used to play alone in his room volume low.

    I bought it in 2000 and I still use it at home with guitars strat type.
    His few default are not very serious for a first amp and / or to play alone at home volum Modr. APRS if you want to put in watts or make heavy go your way!

    cf. Wikipedia;)

    UTILIZATION

    - Purchased from OCCAZ without manual (useless, in my opinion)
    - If you are archi beginner, prefer the advice to hack adventure buttons. This gives you the best possible sound (if the seller is not fake ...)
    - Attention, I have not tested on stage, and personal, I would keep the room. Unless you are the amateur festival of zik;)

    SOUNDS

    I play more blues, but the rock (saturated, bright), jazz and reggae are doing very well also. A nice versatility.

    OVERALL OPINION

    - Used for 3 years.
    - Laney had a low power before. Nothing to do (under the Laney)
    - You will have costs included: value for money: nothing wrong!
