Best value: Excellent
all-tube amplifier, connector jack. 30 real watts.
spring reverb, bright button.
2 X is the model 12 that I own (purchased from DV247, the cheapest site for this amp, etc.).
I would have added a 4X10 cabinet with Fender homemade bowls that improves the projection, and the answer ds slamming down the spectrum.

UTILIZATION

Config simple, clear and simple manual, very good clean sound. overdrive a little less good when the amp was new.
Apara, the lamps are made from, or my ears got used.
Good for funk, blues, rock, even jazz, hard rock rather wise.
For metal, I put my blackstar here and does it well.
It supports very well all my pedals (clone TS 808 Whammy).
notes that I give are in relation to the price paid (500 € new)
very easy to adjust, very powerful even flag. His 30 W repeats than enough for even a lumberjack behind the drums.

SOUNDS

It is perfect (with the price of course) for all the styles I play, and I play almost everything.
The bright does almost sound like a good Fender clean sound on. I find the bright bcp less effective in overdrive. So, I'll have it changed by a mate in order to adjust the height of the bright foot and the switcher.
I play strats with vintage japan and U.S. deluxe, les paul studio and P90 DC (super overdrive the amplifier with the P90), Schecter, Epiphone Sheraton ...

The sound is clear even qd a level above the overdrive channel. excellent for casseroles, the wah funk, arpeggios, blues, and jazz

I put 9 for the overdrive channel

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over a year. I have tried many models tube and transistor before buying (H & K transistors and lamps, typed too metal, too soft marshall-series models of today in any case, fender-bills are -too expensive, other laney, roland).

The +: sound very good and clear on which one can send all the pedals you want

The -: the overdrive channel, which is useless qd was good pedals, it is widely used even qd for a crunch, but not distal. Or for a gain level different from that of his pedals (that's what I used, the gain of the amplifier 9, my TS 808 to 12 and my DS to a jap 13H, here allows enormous range of sounds).
Compared to the price paid (500 €), excellent value for money.
I would do without this choice bp
