Best value: Excellent
Small tube amp, 5W, between high and low, and just a knob volume. The dream!

UTILIZATION

Configuration is as simple, in fact the color of his is set directly via the knob tone of the guitar. Obviously, the power forced him to sound just stronger than acoustic guitar, but the sound is beautiful, amazing! (Accuracy: I play with a telecaster)

SOUNDS

OVERALL OPINION

Used for over a year, I keep it for life. It's been years since I was looking for a tube amp, very small, not too expensive, simple, and voila! All trademarks fun to produce ...
Level look, the top, as long as we like retro, I like making "HP external", located inside the unit, which is connected to the small HP Fender, not practical at all (just an extension to tinker) but in principle, I love it!
Excellent value for money in my opinion, it is not stolen, but everyone sees noon at his door, poour cheaper, there are small marshall transistor, more modern, comprehensive, very nice too, but it is not same class ...
I would much rather this choice twice a day, why not use two pedals equipped with a stereo output? Ok, I exaggerate a little, but ...
