What type of amplification lamps: 6V6 x 2 + rectifier
What connection: 2 inputs - reverb footswitch jack / tremolo
What is the power output: 12 watts (sounds loud!!)
What are the settings, effects: no standby, volume, bass, treble, reverb, intensity (tremolo), speed (tremolo)

UTILIZATION

The configuration is simple: yes. is connected and playing :-)
The manual is clear and sufficient: yes
Gets it easy to sound good, yes. The sound is very rich bass with a lot of heat. Lots of headroom despite its 12 watts. Reverb and vibrato fulfill their role perfectly.
Against by the amp produces a lot of noise (frequencies vibrate the amp without pushing the amp volume). I do not know if this is related to the model that I bought in particular but mine is already gone for repair after one day because these parasites make the amp sounds unusable!

SOUNDS

Will it fit your style of music: yes (blues, jazz)
What kind of sound you get and with what settings: clear sound with great warmth. The amp starts to distort from 5 volume that is already very strong. impossible to do cruncher apartment for example.
With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play: LP, SG, 335

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it: 1 day
Have you tried many other models before buying it: yes
What is so special that you like most and least: most: the sound!! least: the noise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How would you rate the quality / price ratio: average ...
With experience, you do again this choice: yet not. I expect the amp back to service and I will edit this post.
