Amplification all lamps, this amp is a true class A / B (spcial ddicace to aficionados of class A). 3 pramp lamps, a grinder 5U4, 2 EL84 18W for rock n roll. Caution is 18W trs fort. It allows to consider playing in clubs or small scnes outdoors.
An effects loop without rglage, a slave output I do not use because of Loadbox Koch, 2 HP 8 or 16 Ohms (no damage output 4 ohms).
On the front panel, switch off and on standby, a master volume, 3 band legalization, a saturated gain for the channel and volume for the clean channel. Me passing a 3 channel amp noon, the least we can say is that I change the world. there is a bright pulling on the volume of clean and feature a mid-cut on the rglage of mids.
It's simple, extremely simple, even at first too. But I'm sure that's what makes the sound so fantastic. No frills, just the basics.
UTILIZATION
The configuration is it simple? Hummmm ... with 6 buttons are made quickly around the question. I opened the manual After a few days of use, but we must get away with, with a minimum of savvy.
For the noise level against any rings. APRs have tweak for days, there is no unreglage that does not sound on this amp. It takes the great pedals. Now I've done almost all my rglages around are between 11am and 2am.
SOUNDS
This is the important point of this amp, the sound.
The clean is beautiful, even if it crunch a little too fast I got with humbuckers. Many shades of subtlety. Without the bright one is on a clean marshall, but a good marshall. Less bright than a fender, right under a mesa. Difficult to bring it closer to something I had or possd dj. It remains nanmoins a notch below the clean Carvin Legacy I owns and remains my REFERENCE sound of Contents clean. Bright was shooting for something a little brighter (the word) we are in the clean voxien without the vox of acid ct. It's like I was using it. with the volume pushed the clean background is obtained as bright if the off state CNAL a plexi / top boost INTERESTED trs but unusable with the other channel as it is strong. A clean and crunch trs trs sensible attack.
The Distortion channel is a true wonder. In the vein of Marshall modd type Soldano, a grain with very modern yet quite ar ct and open vintage amps. What surprises most is the sustain of this channel. It was a typical rock sound, but that passes in every mix and especially that adapts to rock n roll like the grunge rock as in the 70's. The gain is far enough away to trs any civilized music. Always transparent by trs against that respects the natural grain trs good guitars. The mid boost shot records we enter hard really nice. With a boost (AC Booster in my case) and an ESP I played easily the Ozzy Osbourne or Dream Theater.
If you are looking for a REFERENCE sound, think Santana Strode.
2 channels so good, transparent and dynamic trs ct dpouill but the Spartan and the rglages requires compromises in situations Live.
I use trs little effect, merely an EH Holy Grail Reverb and delay carl Martin. In a faade Wah Fulltone, Xotic an AC Booster, Maxon OD 808 and a one Bixonic Expandora. I have a whole palette of sounds and especially the possibility to correct a little legalization based on his research with the pedals, which is frankly more.
I use a PRS type guitar, I jou top with ESP, a superstrate up Carvin pickups in Suhr, a tele, an electric rsonateur. All sounds in this amp, even if the double seem to sound better than simple. That said the tl with a clean and just pushed a delay slapback is just gorgeous.
In short among all its sounds, I spend my time tweaker and record according to my mood and my guitar, even if most of the time all the knobs are almost noon.
EDIT: APRS on a test baffle in Greenbacks sound is beautiful and the pedals sound better. Even if the clean is a bit bland and dark, can be compensated with the legalization of sounds to find more crystalline, and at the pitcher, and ODs Satus, the another world. Frankly more rock, more punch, less wide band frequency drives perant but better in the mix, with really great energy.
OVERALL OPINION
The overall opinion, although the note is good, still a bit mixed. The great quality (let's not mince words), and various sounds of this amp lets me honest on the c. .. it rings true in any circumstance. Nanmoins lack of rglages requires compromises not only within the same channel (clean or clear Plexiglas top or boost) but also in terms of legalization (with a clean mids creuss is absolutely horrible) to use live.
In home studio in cons, this amp is the companion rv as it brings together all of trsors rock sounds.
If you play live, do not buy a Buddha. Buy two!!
anyway, for the first time would not consider myself an amp Sparer. I plan to take a deuxime head, or Buddha, or something else (Suhr badger, Mesa Lone Star Special). But I confess look for Buddha, can be a Superdrive 45W. Time will tell.
when I see the advice of ct that the only asset of this head is the sound ... hummm I agree, at the same time I n'achte not an amp to the weight or the number of buttons. I conois that we can be of the lack of opportunity. My old head has 3 channels, MIDI and silent possdait rglages of not knowing what to do. Besides, I did not know what to do. I was full of good sounds available at the bottom. I have an L or two, but there are excellent. My choice is made.
