Small combo, with 2 lamps, just to get the light LOL, a 10-inch Gammell to cook ...
A power selector (super cool) 4 watt, 1 watt, and 1 / 4 watt. 1 volume knob, one tone knob, and presto you are done!

UTILIZATION

Yes it's simple, you plug, it heats and we play :-) M'enfin here seems quite simple, even simplistic 1 volume and tone ... But neni! As I said SRV dream of an amp with a single button ...
So yes it is simple, but you'll see quickly that the combinations are numerous and effective, given that the animal reacts as much a part in the attack that will give us the ropes, but also the volume and tone of your guitar ...*
The manual is simple and effective with a small dose of humor welcomed.

SOUNDS

So yes he should and should even seriously!! To be honest I was previously a Fender Blues Jr, not bad but 15 watts at home for home studio was too much. I always have a Peavey Delta Blues I like a lot but still too many watts for the home.
So this little AC4 did not actually clear sound of a Fender, and this is a feature that I like! Fender amp is excellent, but I needed something else, and I've found with this AC4.
The clean sounds are good, and the crunch and overdrive sounds MUCH more to my taste than the Fender! Brief with this low power (Yeah it's relative because the 4 watts are still wild!) Is to play little lamps background and I FINALLY the sound I was looking for, with an HP 10 "(c is top) to short the top of my shots in a home studio sound.
I own it for a week, and I play with my Gretsch, a treat!!
I hesitated with the Fender Champion 5 watts, but it was too much and too little watts Hp Eclipse for me ... also with the Epiphone Valve Jr. .. Not tested.

OVERALL OPINION

For a week, and I love it!! In addition, despite the limited settings in appearance, they are effective and many combinations. Moreover it is QUIET!! The above it blew me away, to note that this is a class A so it's good.
Finally 9 kilo, it's cool for small repeated as long as other zicos are cool and the drummer is not a fan of double bass drum and discography of Motorhead ...
Bein in fact I love it so much I want to buy plus version cabinet + head ....
