TMB Channel (formerly of Marshall tremolo channel): 1 in, 1 Master Volume, a volume (which hit the knob acts as a "gain"), medium treble Bass
1 stand by
1 power on
1 red LED
Funny
Simple, direct, I put 10/10
UTILIZATION
Config architecture simple. amp "2 channel" through an AB in box.le in a channel does not mute the other channel so you can switch from one to another easily with an ABox, and that's all great to this amp (among others)
how not to get a good sound with this amp or you play like a crepe. This amp is really very simple to use, a CP kid could use this amp.
for simplicity, I put 10
SOUNDS
While there, the sound. How to say good. is daunting. A real factory cruncher. Caution is not the crunch is the crunch. The advantage of this amp is the small power that allows on scene (the average club or room) to get a tube amp crunch of oats without the other oreillles zicos and the public.
I use it with Telecaster (mounted Nuckle Bare, Joe Barden ..)
Channel 1 (tone, volume) is simply genial. A mixture of Vox and Marshall (thank you to EL84). ca crunch relatively quickly (knob at 10), beyond 14h (it is very, very strong) increases the rate of more than the drive volume. It snaps, it's clear, precise, rich and present, brilliant. Boosted with a Fulltone OCD, we get an amp is for rock. Wha I took for Malcolm
Channel 2 (TMB) is great. How to say. It's the sound of Back in Black. Nothing more, nothing less. A little more "fat" as the channel 1 (I do not like this word because the sound remains tight all the same and very accurate), it is a clap more modern, a little low (it's light) and advantage in addition to managing an equa frequency, the master volume. The top, you put the volume "gain" a 21h, 14h to the master, it opens the sound through the work of power tubes, the sound is rich, broad ... pinaise's good! I think I'm Angus
This is not a true 2 channel. usually we have a clean and saturated. There is two channels with each crunch a specific color. Being able to change with an AB Box is hell.
My heart goes to channel 1, which because of its simplicity, its next medium rich in harmonic
This is the perfect complement to the Bogner Shiva. In addition it collects the pedals at ease.
Amp tried a Bogner Shiva 2x12 open back and a V30 1x12 Bogner Shiva closed CL80. With the CL80 is more cermeux. With the V30, it's live "in your face." Persdo I prefer the V30 on this amp. I hear you well with green back, too. Its low power (18w) is the perfect companion for a Green back 1x12 (which collects 25 watts max)
Note? if I could I would put 12
OVERALL OPINION
Value for money? 500 euro bought secondhand with chassis. Tope TTC is in the same price direct to the site of ceriatone (no hunting)
What I like most? Anything, the amp is top as it is
What I like least? Ben including the principle of this amp, there's nothing to say. We could
It is a very serious competitor to the Bogner Duende Shur and Badger are between 1800 and 2500 euros. For 500 is unbeatable. Nothing more, nothing less.
