Published on 01/08/14 at 06:32What kind of amplification (lamp, transistor, ...)?
All lamps, and a sacred procession, 6 or 7 preamp, 4 power ... A sacred christmas wreath.
What is the power delivered?
85W ... Biiiiiig!
What connection?
4 input jack, two per channel, with a slightly more gain per channel.
What are the settings, the effects?
EQ per channel, gain, treble-bass-medium + bright switch and adjusting the reverb, speed and intensity for the tremolo.
In short, everything you need where you need it!
UTILIZATION
The configuration is it simple?
Yes, and even relatively conventional.
Gets it easy to sound good?
Yes, with all 12H is already good, then its equalization is managed (or not) is very responsive, and as there may be very good, as it was soon porridge with extreme settings. The colors of the two channels are very different, and not offer a lot of things to explore.
The manual is clear and sufficient?
I tried it in store, I have not seen the manual.
SOUNDS
Is it your style of music?
I play swing, rockabilly, rock and hard rock.
And how it should be!
With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
I played with my Gretsch white falcon (Bigsby TV Jones), how to say ... a must!
What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold", ....)?
So now, it is very strong! as soon as one goes up the gain, we take full ears, and full head. Clean of all forms, through two channels, I tried to push cruch, but it also sounds a deafening volume and 3m ² bunker in which I tried, it was too much for my ears ...
The influence of the bright switch is feeling well at low volume, and not at all high volume (gains after 4).
The spring reverb is dosed over quite integrated into the same kind when it was all or nothing reverbs, there you can go in the shade of a little to much (like surf music or funny reverb slap like an aquarium), I broke it trying in every way.
Tremolo did not work, probably factory default ...
What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
I liked the opportunity to have clean (very) high volume, this is exactly what was missing with my previous amps. Diversity cleans also is not bad, the first channel typed bassman is great for the rockabilly 'paunchy, and the second twin channel is great for swing, surf, funk, and anything that requires brilliance!
OVERALL OPINION
How long have you use it?
I tried it in store, and I convinced myself to buy it at the same time.
What is the particular feature you like best and least?
I like everything with this amp, it does what is asked of clean high volume, crunch louder volume, full EQ, reverb and tremolo when it will work ...
Have you tried many other models before buying it?
I tried a lot of things yes, marshall (MG100DFX 1959 plexi), VOX (AC15C1, AC15HW) of engl (signature ritchie blackmore), but none of these amps has satisfied me clean (except possibly be AC15HW but volume too low to be able to do something by repeating). This one will be my amp clean!
What is the particular feature you like best and least?
What I like the most, clean high volume, the less can be HP, I will test with other cabs, and I will make an edict when I know more.
How would you rate the quality / price?
This is excellent, 1300 balls to the craft, saw the garland of lamps that there is in it, it does not surprise me almost ... After, all at a price of clean this quality, this volume, I have not found a price below that.
With experience, you do again this choice?
yes, because I'll buy it!
