Just as we must. Perfect for me, and I would give 11 points for AC, but there are many people who love the stuff miles buttons, I think a single channel amp can not do more than 5 points in "features"

UTILIZATION

I play the guitar for 35 years and for twenty years in the group. We twenty dates a year, our style is between Blues and Southern Rock and looked long for an amp that can accompany me in clubs (cif bar) and festivals (open air, large sc only). My Twin Reverb is too large to small scnes, the Deluxe Reverb lack of high-volume body ... and in addition I would like to have more gain than the Deluxe ....

Sailing - done!

I never use a distortion pedals, my only effect is a wah, and I get set my solo sound on the amp and - by cutting the volume of the guitar - the sound is clear and "clicky". What's more? The manual is an A4 page (one amp for one channel is enough!) And if we can not find a good sound with a single channel amp, you may need to be completed and the guitar start painting!

SOUNDS

What to say? Listen to our music ( http://www.the-electric-church.fr ) for the sound (especially our CDs BUY !!!!) My IDAL is a clear style "piano" and a crunch that leaves even when each string in the ring together. I have a horror sounds "ultra-hi-gain" which often has a resemblance drill. Even if the amp is capable of going much further, I limit myself a sound between "Texas Blues" and "Gator Rock".

My guitars are the Fender Stratocaster and two Duesenberg (a Carl Carlton and Imperial). The amp Ragit trs prcis on guitars and it reproduces the Difference instruments. I actually Discoveries some special thanks to my instruments the precision of reproduction of this amp.

Against it must be accepted by his own game if it sounds crappy, because I played crappy ... But finally I know of no other amp that has a certain sound - as three dimensional and full of harmonies - it's really sublime. I found my own voice with the THC Sunset

OVERALL OPINION

Amp since I possde prsque three years, and I have not regretted the purchase. If the amp will be flying I did not hesitate to buy again a Sunset, but I would pass on the reverb. For I am not against sr the amp is a good deal for everyone. At this price there are many good amplifiers, and the lines "boutique" like Matchless, Carr, Bad Cat, Victoria Amp Co, Custom Audio Amplification, Komet, van Heerlen Dumble or even (I have owned a steel string singer before THC), ALL amps are superb.

We need to know trs prcisement that and accept that even in the highest range, every purchase is a compromise. I am super happy with my Sunset and each time another player is playing my amp, he was impressed by its sound, but I also know that the Sunset does neither punk nor in mtal ...

I'd give 100 points in this category, but in fact the THC Sunset IDAL is not the tool for everyone. Even worse: it addresses a very small circle of guitarists who knows to use his instrument and the volume knob ... If you are part of this circle, and you can sign a chque of Euro 3500 without shaking your hand - go for it!
