Good designe is subject to discussion, but most is not necessarily there.
UTILIZATION
Easier for a 2 channel can hardly be. The head is light and strong. The manual supplied with or downloadable easy access. The head comes with the footswitch Jack stamp accompanied by a Buddha. Well that drastic adjustments are very effective. It's simple, one branch is allowed to warm and it sounds immediately. Of course, a good speaker is required.
SOUNDS
The head is connected to a Bogner 2x12 oversized V30 most of the time (sometimes on a 4X12 1960A but this is to help out in rehearsal because even if the rendering is correct we have chandeliers a Bogner cabinet .. .). Plows used Musicman Silhouette 20th anniversary, and Charvel So cal.
This head is versatile but trouble comes mainly from the fact that there is only one EQ (I will return later) and plenty powerful for bars (18 w is far from anemic " . You can do anything with it (except of course have a big sound correct but the goal is not there!) The sound is "organic" on most settings. Channel "rhythm" lack of head room for a real but what's clear crunch! plans in rollover agreements and open agreements are terrible. By adding a boost your guitar will bleed while remaining very clear to you. Taking this channel (without boost) we arrive at the land the plexi jtm 45 pushed into a corner with a small but distinctive color. This channel highlights touch, phrasing and articulation and especially your bread ... Even pushing the sound does not compress. Kotzen fan or Govan (in the Artistocrats) you will probably find you. This channel has a bright mode from a push pull on the rhythm button. This further expands its palette.
Let the Lead channel. We find immediately that own color to the head, a little something in the midrange that gives a warm side and "spicy" (sorry this is the word that comes first). It's Marshall on steroids. Although the gain is gradual and is part of the big crunch to saturation. Pulling the button Mids we reach a new configuration equal to the amp, much more modern and resolutely Hi gain. With a good boost pedal (I use a BB preamp upstream), the mids to zero and the bass and treble that sending more than enough to make metal (note that there was not more extreme). Palm Mute are always well defined and harmonics fuse. As against the fact of digging medium is not tip-top when the Rhythm channel board (the problem of equalizing common to both channels). We must find the right compromise including concert to be always present in the mix. But why not worry too much is the hallmark of this small tête.Pour conclusion, it still sounds regardless of the setting, there is that to see the demos on the net.
OVERALL OPINION
I own this head for a little more than two used ans.Achetée. So I took some time to post a comment
A well-designed head, strong light, versatile, that ask for more. Maybe two would live there because the town equalization can show its limits in the style of music performed. Studio will be a Swiss Army knife. This head sounds divinely and adjusts easily (My previous amp was a mesa-boogie ...). In addition, the amp is "pedal friendly" so there will experiment. the head "shop" (though now owned by Budda Peavy) which has a certain character can not be to everyone under its drastic adjustments, but it allows no doubt trying to find its own identity and color please sound!
Budda has also just released a new head 3 switchable channels the "bully" from 25W to 120W with 3 truly separate channels. Of course if you have the bank account the following ...
