UTILIZATION

Just know that:
* Lights a heater
* Lamps are sensitive to the volume of

So two things must let the amp warm up before use and must play with the volume we do go into the amp. Like any tube amp.

Because of the knobs Submitted on SETTING THE amp is very simple. However, legalization is a bit dcevante.

The quality of manufacturing does not appear to be its strong point.

SOUNDS

Prambule: this is my first tube amp, and I play bass and some guitar.

Commenons by what FCHE: the HP.
Let's be frank, this is a crap HP unspeakable. But just plug the GA15 in a cab a little drinking and a little more on discovering the potential of the beast. I plug it in the cabinet of a Peavey bass combo in 1x12.

Pooh is the hearts. This is an amp a bit rustic, with a grain blues-rock. All I am looking for the guitar.

A nice clean and with a boost, a nice crunch. With overdrive, bah was a nice overdrive, in fact you can go up through the distortion and drive volume of OD bottom, but has become a chouilla draft. With distortion, not bad, but may be missing some precision.

Plutt I play rock, hard rock and some country, and this amp is really built for.

For the bass is simply gnial. A touch of madness, a sound and a super mini ar crunch when you walk up the sound. On my 1x12, may miss low, but a little bit of legalization and off again! Moreover it is much more efficient on a good speaker. For the slap is simply madness!

OVERALL OPINION

In my vrit ERRF I tell you, it's a report qualitprix was breathtaking.

This is a good amp, good ncessitant HP, or a good cab (should be tested a 4x12).
Thotho at 155 euros, it leaves enough to buy a cabinet.

With a chorus and an overdrive, you will have enough to play a broad spectrum of styles, excluding the metal.

So I recommend to all those who play on the transistor, and those who do not have too much budget and finally to bassists who rvent lamps.
