Published on 10/20/11 at 15:1320W all-tube amp that sounds hard, 2 channels, hp 12 inch Celestion (which?), Invoice Asia. Finish class!
- Clean channel: volume one, setting a tone.
- Channel Crunch / Lead: volume, 3-band EQ, a gain setting of "ISF".
Controls reverb (digital) and the master are common to the two channels.
UTILIZATION
It should not be very smart to understand how it works, the amp is very simple and the sound is there without too much set.
The huge plus of this amp is the Master Control (common to 2 channels), plus the volume on the clean channel, and in addition the volume and gain on channel saturated. It's great, it's like to have a pad built into the amp!
So, we can play it anywhere, apart 'as on stage, having a good sound regardless of the volume.
SOUNDS
Controls a little rough the clean channel (vol, tone) I was a little scared at first. But that's where comes the great surprise I was expecting to have a clean cut-price (thinking that the interest lay in the amplifier channel saturated), it is not! The sound is very good, not American, not very dynamic but with nice bass. Obviously it will be difficult to customize without equalizer upstream, adjusting tone is quite limited. But frankly, with my Les Paul, the beast sounds at home in jazz, and not be ashamed about my Rivera. The digital reverb is much better than spring reverbs moult often a crock. The only adjustment of tone is a bit limited though, a small Bright switch would not swear.
Note that the clean and can be pushed only slightly saturates that pushed donf.
Boosted channel offers plenty of possibilities, with a little tact. The ISF control makes me think of the contour controls on certain Marshall. It is supposed to make us move from the british to its Rican. I can not judge too, because I was expecting to have a more to the old (and I'm not too aware of the modern sounds). Well, no. Disappointed the old man. It sounds very very good, but too modern for me. I strip about an old AC15, or Class 5 Marshall (who themselves are absolutely wrong practices for the stage). I feel the big one soon reaches saturation, and crunches are hard to light chopper, but now I may have failed to correctly set the amp, not having tried in-store .
OVERALL OPINION
Note that I've only tried 30 minutes in the store, and I do not have.
It is the ideal amp for those who love the sounds pretty saturated modern transportable (20kg), practical, comprehensive connectivity, two canals that ring of hell, a versatile sound pretty crazy (jazz, blues, funk, rock, hard, metal so I'm guessing), playable everywhere, at all volumes, finished class ... I would see little flaws. To see the long term.
A quality / equipment / price that will provide formidable may be a little concerned some brands sleepy (who said Marshall? ^ ^).
