Small, 30-watt solid-state amp.
2 inputs and 1 headphone output to play at home.
It also has a spring reverb.
It looks very nice with its vintage varnished pine cabinet, similar to some Mesa-Boogie models.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use: two inputs (high/low) with different sensitivity, providing different output levels. A volume knob controls the gain intensity and a master knob the output level.
The amp also has a 2-band EQ (bass/treble) and a reverb control.
The sound is quite versatile... and a multi-effects processor will add more possibilities.

SOUNDS

I used this amp 10 years and then I bought a (too) bulky Marshall.
I was very satisfied during this time. It's main limitation comes from the 6" speaker... difficult to get the Angus Young sound...

OVERALL OPINION

I like this amp especially for its looks but also for its musical qualities.
