<ul><br />
2 input (high gain, low gain) <br />
A clean channel with bright (push / pull), Gain, Bass, Mid, Treble <br />
Crunch channel with a pre and post gain swich + (+ gain) <br />
Lead channel 1 "Ultra Gain" with pre and post gain (more gain) <br />
Voicing common to the crunch and lead channels with Bottom, Body and Edge <br />
<br />
1 Master volume <br />
1 reverb <br />
2 interuptor (preheating and start-up) <br />
<br />
1 connection effects loop in and out <br />
Switchable to 4 or 8 ohm output with each <br />
HP a lot! <br />
</ul><br />
<br />
My opinion: complete connectivity, channel 3 (cool), very precise and EQ footswitch 3 channels and reverb. <br />
<br />
[b]UTILIZATION[/b]<br />
<br />
For settings, it's simple but it's an amp with a great range of sound, we must seek to create his own. <br />
<br />
[b]SOUNDS[/b]<br />
<br />
I play more blues and jazz, this amp is better in a record rock / hardcore / metal <br />
<br />
The clean sounds are slammin but not brilliant <br />
The crunch is nikel (rolling stones and Company) <br />
The distorted sounds are huge Nirvana Metalica, we can raiment the "shape" thanks to the voicing. There really gain a lot if you use the swich (+ gain), it can become very fat. <br />
<br />
I play on stratocaster but I had a Les Paul, and I must say that I took a bit to Slash on this amp. What is surprising is that going to a vintage sound to its bare-metal highly compressed simply by using the voicing (3-band EQ) <br />
<br />
In short it is versatile but in the Rock, for Jazzeux is not the right choice. <br />
You understood, it is an amp for guitarists "excited" that seeks power and big sound. Repeating, in a club or at home, no problem except that the 22 kilos of beast. <br />
<br />
I put 6 / 10 because the clean sounds are average. <br />
<br />
[b]OVERALL OPINION[/b]<br />
<br />
It must be 10 years since I played on Peavey, not technical problems. <br />
I love her big sound, the EQ very effective. <br />
I do not like its sounds clear enough jazz for me. <br />
<br />
I played on dozens of amps, I must say that it surprised me at first in the store I did not try it because it was a Peavey, I ended the buy and I do not regret it one amp robust, powerful and has a wide range of distorted sounds. <br />
<br />
For the price, it's a good amp, the tube amps of today are very expensive and not always as versatile. <br />
<br />
I recommend this amp to a young person who starts and who wants fare noise and repeat with his friends, or a guitarist who has confirmed his chosen style: rock / hardcore / metal. "metal.")
