Small tube amp with 3 15 watt lamps 12 AX7 and 2 6BQ5 with a Celestion Vintage 30 (there is also Jensen).
A single channel with a boost. This boost can be activated with a footswitch. The plug is hidden but it exists. There is no line out or preamp output. One can connect to another cons HP (8ohms)
It was made in several colors. I have the vintage tweed and texas red (I wanted a stereo setup, but I could not find tweed so they are mismatched).
The Vintage tweed has a leather handle me a look that I love and it is covered with fabric as its name suggests.
Texas has a red handle and a plastic coating. But ultimately it is nice.
The sound of 2 is identical.
Then again, it's 15 watts, but be careful, go test them, because they send strong these little amps! Especially since to get a good saturation, I put all the settings to 10 (yes I know it looks a little Nigel Tufnell of Spinal Tap
...). And we have a super natural saturation.
The reverb is very nice, but not very sensitive to pottard level.
I put 8 becaufe it would have been nice to have a preamp output.
UTILIZATION
Setup could not be more simple. THE sound is obtained, we can not get 50 sounds.
It is the antithesis of the numerical modeling amp
If you want to go see I made a video demo of my pedalboard with 2 Fender stereo. It will be better than a long speech.
The manual will go see it should still be in the box ...
SOUNDS
I play in groups, and are made repeatedly rock (AC / DC, Alanis Morissette, Metallica, Coutning Crows, rage against the machine), for which I need a lot of different sounds ... oh it goes to against what I said earlier huh??
But actually no, I play a lot on the volume pedal, which gives me a sound that goes from clean to crunch to saturated. And when I need more, I send the TS9 and compression Squeeze Love is a killer.
Like I said my config is stereo, so I have a Boss Delay me splits the end of his chain, and it's been a very full sound this great.
Lately I've also tried leaving the amps clean sound (so I have not put everything to 10) and I used a dual HT Black Star. And it's like having an amp has 3 Canneaux.
I must make a demo video of my pedals like that, I would put on Youtube.
I use mainly with a Peavey Van Halen, a Gibson Les Paul 50 reissue and a Stratocaster Jeff Beck. The sound varies greatly depending on the guitar.
OVERALL OPINION
I've had it 7 months.
Initially I wanted a small amp becaufe in pubs, we are asked increasingly to play a more reasonable volume. And my Mesa DC5 is not reasonable volume level, or my rack config.
So I had to play smoothly on big amps, which is the best way not to have grain and bran.
That's why I looked for very small amps that I can push for them to reach a level where they are profitable sonically speaking.
What I like most is the simplicity. I think it's an amp, likes and dislikes of hand. It is not seeking any adjustment for 3 hours it will change anything.
The value for money seems bon.Et report its excellent price. But it is a question of taste
