The characteristics for, see the reviews previous ones. the only particularity is that mine is black and not purple.
I will appreciate a good tremolo over rverb.

UTILIZATION

I wanted a simple amp, "plug'n'play, with which we are not obliged to tinker 15 billion knobs and other switches to find her ... well I've used: o )
to Get You Started, we put it all 12, it adjusts the master and rverb and roll youth! then simply adjust the two knobs of Pramper as we play the guitar, and it's all good.
I t also positively surprised by the knobs in shade: i was left on the reputation of a total ineffectiveness of these rglages, they are subtle and well but now truly useful.
Only (small) BMOL: the difference in volume between the Low and High Dynamic Range, but nothing serious, especially since the amp is not designed as a 2 channel.

SOUNDS

sound, I am still amazed by the versatility of the machine.
Beautiful cleans, overdrives very dynamic, leads classic marshall, always with a great presence and warmth.

In fact, this amp is the ideal add-ins of my old classic 30 (a really good amp too, so, so, believe me: o)
O The classic is "tight" over medium, less bright and slightly less wide (only 1 HP and smaller cab), the marshall is "grotty" or fuzz when pushed. I therefore tend to use the marshall blues rock and 70's, and Peavey for his more current. but the 2 do the job!
they are complementary also because the peavey is great with humbucker pickups, much less with simple, but I find the best marshall with Strata, a tl or LP team by p90.
Finally, I rediscover some pedals that I had shelved with the classic.
So, the problem is that it starts to heavy to lug all this: o)

Another positive point, the dynamic is excellent, and most importantly, sought not fully rglage amp volume and tone from the guitar. So we move very easily from clean / crunch sound more guts simply by adjusting the volume of the guitar.

Just, and really too rverb beyond caricature of 2-3.

OVERALL OPINION

AC makes 2 months that I use, the house and RPET, not yet in concert, but the season starts again soon: o)
I never thought one day on a crack marshall. Before opting for this model, I tried a bit of everything, including:
- JVM215: very nice, but too much gas plant
- Bogner Alchemist: sounds clear and very nice crunch, but a lead channel too dark (on the MODEL testing and in-store, so not much time to refine)
- Fender 65 Deluxe Reverb RI: beautiful clear but too bright, not versatile, not at all phased by volume (not cool the house)

I also long bav on ceriatone overtone special, and the handmade amps made in France of JMH Custom Standards (these amps), but the price is not the same ...

why I chose the one? simplicity versatility, delightfully vintage sounds (I cracked when I fell in 15 seconds on the Cream sound ...), good weight / size / power, price.
