Best value: Excellent
50W all-tube combo hand made in England.
- 5 to pramplification 12AX7, 2 6L6 or EL34 for power
- 2 channels compltement indpendants with their 3-band equalizer ddi (plus a push / pull on acute for its bright). The channel has saturated plus a switch to change from a mean saturation (very vintage) and a distortion dvastatrice (no need for distortion pedals with this amp)
- An Accutronics reverb, a knob of prsence (not always effective, adpent other SETTING THE amp), and finally 2 master volumes (foot switchable)
- The back there is everything needed to connect any HP, one SETTING THE damping to play on the saturated a triode / pentode, a 6L6/EL34 mode (no test EL34s) and finally an effects loop series or parallle with rglage output levels and between
- Control at the foot of the effects loop, a type of distortion (medium / high), choice of channel and master volume ...

In short I have never seen an amp as complete, nickel to live.

UTILIZATION

Despite the many rglages found the sound that is very easy. It's going to the Blues / Jazz at the Hard Core, and all of contrlable toe.

SOUNDS

Suitable for all styles. I play it with an Ibanez RG550 and an artist of era. Currently works with a kit KT50 (EL84) and there's no saying the sound is top notch.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 5 years and I must say the sound palette always impresses me. Amp perfect for those who like complicated assemblies with effects loop, and company. The 2 channels are gniaux indpendant with equalizer, and of course the two master volumes ..... The only problem is that it is a bit cumbersome.

Otherwise the report quality price fMeasure rating Audiofanzine deprecated in this amp .... I think about 800 average price OCCAZ (the last time I saw it in-store silent 1300 on sale), if you find a lower estimate of 600 that you made a big deal trs. Trs trs qualitprix good value.

If I had to redo this choice would be yes, but for model a little more compact 30W ....
