Value For Money : Excellent

25W-transistor

What are the settings, effects? ...
-3-band EQ (Low, Mid and High, which correspond to the bass, midrange and treble)
2 channels that share a common EQ (for the price, do not expect anything else) that match the clean channel and the Lead channel.
I note the presence of a 3-position switch that influences the sound more or less (Stack, Modern and Vintage)

Good Q / P = 7 / 10

SOUNDS

Will it fit your style of music?
Yes and no, for all Clean tones and with a slight overdrive of the amp, it suffit.Pour other styles such as Rock and Metal HardRock, a distortion pedal (or a multi-effects, when eh ... you're a beginner) is to be expected because of its lead channel is too rough beyond the stroke of half the volume pot (and again).
However, given the small size of HP (8 "), you will not get a distortion in her famous.

What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "fat ",....)?
"Everything is a matter of settings and how you jouez.J 've been able to obtain satisfactory sound (considering the price of the amp.)

"With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
Ibanez RG370DX (before selling) and a copy of Start (Tanglewood Nevada)

Again, these are the sounds that have them clean my favor.

Non-

What thing do you like most/least about it?
-Pros: Good sound, cheap and simple adjustments

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Bon = 7 / 10

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
