Everything has been said about it, it's all 50 watt lamps, with a complete connection. 2 channels with 2 modes for the first and the second for 3 modes (for rectoverb series 2). Each channel has its own settings for gain, a 3-band EQ (very effective), a presence control, reverb '(which I find quite nice, like what the tastes and colors ...), a master volume . I would add the presence of the solo function, which can be used as a "boost". This amp is a tank, construction of a super tough, he does not budge a bit when everything shakes around, impressive ...

UTILIZATION

The setup is relatively simple, it does sound very fast, but there are hours and hours to go to find our sound exactly (or rather our sounds!) Both settings interact. For me who loves fiddling, I think it's an amp rather sharp, and I'm in heaven! The manual is very complete, very technical and very informative, it changes the manuals we leaf through it once and we returned to the board for life, then you come back often to find info, but if we understand the English ...

SOUNDS

Then there is the central point: the sounds are huge, sounds clearest to the most distorted sounds, everything is HUGE. Of all the amps I've tried so far, no one believes me so much, I thought he was still missing something. Here I do not need any distortion pedal or overdrive, all sounds that I intend. I play a Start 'classic player (excellent guitar ...), and a Slash signature Les Paul, and if I knew it would send with double coils, I was a little skeptical with single coils, or Instead, I asked to see ... The slap in the face ... What purity! Sounds in its crystalline clear, incisive and hyper crunches a huge overdrive or distortion splendid vintage or modern, everything is there, and everything is wonderfully beautiful ... The big highlight for me is the colossal bass presence is impressive. If the receiver does not flinch one bit, all around Aspen, the power it delivers is insane. If you live in the apartment ', hide you when you meet the neighbors!

OVERALL OPINION

I think I found the amp I wanted. If I change one day, it will be for a Mesa Boogie, and nothing else. I read somewhere in another opinion that the report was no money to shit, I do not agree: for me this amp is sold at a very high rate, for sure, but justified under the incredible sonic performance he is capable. The kind of stuff that is worth saving to afford, without a shadow of a doubt.
