«  A great amp but could be amlior ... »

Published on 10/19/10 at 01:13
All-tube amplifier 5 W
Very well thought out with very UNESCORecords connector (rare for this type of amp house), including an effects loop and a headphone output with HP's formulation (1X12 or 4X12), perfect for able to register in silence with a good quality of his or even to get a dub sound live.
Many possibilities, rglages (equalizer and also the possibility of giving a color or amricaine Plutt british)
Two channels: Overdrive and clear.

UTILIZATION

Is a small amp and studio work. It is perfect for this use l. on the other hand, not powerful enough to play in groups.
Very easy to use. At first I

SOUNDS

does a little of the clear sound that I found just enough crisp and clear. It is not a Fender and even putting the ISF to position "amrican" remains a very medium in the sound.
The sound is very saturated right for an amp of this size and power. on the other hand, he left a little buzz if pushed too. It must be reasonable and not Hoping play metal with (at least with good sound).
About the ISF (Infinite Shape filter) which allows to vary the color of his just and well, I think that has not changed much in the final sound!
In my opinion, the original HP deserves to be changed by a better quality and which would sound much better, plain as saturated.
I express this amp by plugging it into the HP of my Fender blues deluxe and well I can tell you that has nothing more to see!
The sound through headphones is wonderful and perfect register.
In all cases, compared a whole bunch of amps that power is very far from one who has the best sound (the price is also consquence).

OVERALL OPINION

I bought all rcemment but sold due to urgent need of money. I would have well-kept and improves (change HP).

We must compare this amp with all his power and I just think it's very far from one who has the best sound (the price is also consquence). I tried an Ibanez valbee a Fender Champion 600, a modified Harley Benton ... He has all Surpass.
I find that even when a better price for the HP would be in the original equipment as possible is one that is really not that great.
With this rserve is a great amp.
