All tube amplification.
The components are soldered point to point, very good job.
Power: about 5 W
In a 12AX7 preamp, a igh for the tremolo. A 6V6GT for amplification and a part for the correct 5Y3 (not easy to find in trade for that matter).
Level settings, the model I (for the Tweed area no longer existed, so this is the Champ Ultra), we find Tremolo, a switch to play in either Tweed or Blackface, 1 volume, 1 Bass and Treble adjustment 1.

UTILIZATION

Extremely easy to use. There is no manual and there is not need.
The sound is very distinctive so it is easily very good when we love.

SOUNDS

It is perfect for my style of music, it reproduces exactly what I was looking in a field. The crunch is a real treat and switch between Blackface and Tweed can play on volumes because in the end all 5 W lamp, it is already powerful. For low volume cruncher blackface is really good and if not how can almost Tweed playing in small clubs with.

The bass is impressive, and very well balanced mids. I play a Gretsch 6120, no effects. I was looking for his nature, I think I found it.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year. I tried a Fender Champion 600 and a Vox AC4TV, during my search for a small amp. I think it's really above it all. I do not appreciate too the tremolo but it does not matter it is always zero.
The quality is amazing so the price / quality ratio is necessarily very good albeit a bit expensive to bring him by carrier.
I had taken office without the time it's a little cheaper but then you must make him a pretty little box.
