Enough said.
I simply stated that my copy is pretty old (90s), and has no effects loop and HP are not the Blue Marvel Peavey HP but a priori (unbranded indicated).
Also note: the other guitarist in my band also has a Classic 50, but much later, the sound is noticeably different, more medium, less distortion. Having said this may be due to a change of lamps on mine, I must say he has already lived well.
I particularly like the presence of the Master Volume control, which allows for volume controls With easy, not like on some amp or one sails between 2.5 and 2.8 while going "too quiet" to "too high" . Once I move the volume between 7 and 8, no worries.
One regret: not loupiote on the footswitch, I hate to listen to whether or not I turned the reverb, or start a song with the cool big distortion of the previous track. In other words, each switch on loupiote life easier. I added an LED on the switch the channel, the operation cost about 10 €, a double stomp switch ON-ON + 1 LED found in large surface radius self (yes) and a battery 9V to change every 12 years until you forget to turn it off when you finish.
Other missing: no wheel yet seen his weight would be interesting. Again we can solve this for ten €.
After these many years of use the screen controls have completely disappeared, it is very annoying, we have to be careful, especially if you clean the beast. I had to reproduce all markings (thank you computer) is very tedious.
UTILIZATION
For sound no worries. The gain setting allows light to distos crunch big sound.
No need to touch the EQ, it has the sound!
SOUNDS
I use depending on my mood a Les Paul std, a Start boosted the Texas Special pickups Clapton + (= big potato) or a Telecaster equipped with Van Zandt True Vintage. The amp is equally suited to each of his guitars, with a special mention for the Telecaster. I had a Fender Hot Rod that did not fit very well with the Gibson, or to buy the Peavey, and frankly disappointed.
on the other hand I have almost never used the bright channel, I prefer the duller the normal.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for 3 years and repeat gigs, never had to worry except for a few inconveniences related to age (see above) and sometimes the need to "reboot" for the volume when I turn ...
This is my 4th amp, the first was a 70's Classic 50 (VT series with tremolo), after 2 Fender Peavey I came home because I wanted to find the sound of this old amp. It is a matter of taste first.
