SOUNDS

Right for your style of music?
Yes

With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
I'm a little luthier, so I play my guitars, but mostly I play on customized Telecaster with original and vintage Les Paul with customized SHPR1

What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
sound very smooth in its crunchy fat enough (because of the hp)

What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
this amp, home is not made to be pushed more than half to get a clean sound, clean cloth.
I hate to push him more as the Original HP do not really want the road more than half, the bass begins to saturate in addition to its super crunch develops lamps.

I put a 6 hp because of

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
2 months

What is so special that you like most and least?
I like the fact that it does not take place, it sounds good with just 5 watts.
I do not like HP who actually castrate the amplifier and the small lightweight breath (it must be said)

Have you tried many other models before buying it?
yes (Tiny Terror, AC15, AC30, Nightrain 15, etc ...)
but too much can in 5 watt. I want an orange tiny terror from home, but 15 watts is enough volume to do it properly cruncher in a room of 15m2

How would you rate the quality / price?
€ 180, super correct, when did see all the small amps 10w to 30w and simulation today in this category, I have not found anything better (by far) the same price.

With experience, you do again this choice?
Yes!
on the other hand I used a 4x12 cabinet with celestion and it sounds great curiously and without forcing hp.
for registration, it is HUGE! I can push the lamp (volume 3 / 4 view 4 / 5), have a great rock crunch with my telecatser and not play at a volume of mentally deficient. the catch of his shots are very good at, something that is possible with a hard-AC30 jtm45 or unless you want to suffer, to suffer the microphones and speaker.
