60W all-tube head, which is more than enough for a good watered again (by the sound of the guitar, and not by the battery = D)
It's effective and it is more than enough!
For the rest, the other 2 are responsible opinion very well to describe
Indeed, we regret the standby, and a small noise, as the beast away!

UTILIZATION

One branch, you listen, it's that simple to go buy a baguette!
It is immediately sound just right, which is not the case with other amps like mesa recto and others.
You turn a knob, "hmm .... c it better" then another .... and presto!
It will still fiddling with the knobs to achieve what is desired (and it is the ultimate pleasure!)

Otherwise, a small flat for the equalization is done for two channels.
If you really can not do without, we must pass over the 120W of the same reference (I have not tried, but according to some opinions read, it seems that it is very nearly the same )
Not even need a manual, the ears are used to that!
This head will be welcome to you, noble roots that does not know what to do from a manual to t. ... well you know what I mean.

SOUNDS

I mainly play metal, death metal to be precise.
As for the guitar, I play Ibanez EMG rise (81-85) or Epiphone LP
This head is connected to a speaker vintage Harley Benton, the famous brand German site (the vintage V30 is installed for it). Even with an average bill of baffle, the sound is excellent!
And I am well served!
The sound is magnificent lead:
The grain is really a high accuracy (known for the brand for that matter!)
You can spend a quite a foil to another much more in the bass.
Of course, you will not find the bass of a Mesa, but that's not what we are looking for! If you want a Mesa sound, well ... you buy Mesa! Nothing new in there ...

So, for against, being in the middle of the metal, some of you, especially the petty (not well) say that this is not music and we love the clean. Well think again! I do. A good clean can not hurt "?"
This is the first thing I noticed about this amp. It is round, etc etc ...
So if you invest in this amp, it's not a distortion!

OVERALL OPINION

Before that head, I played with a pedal Toneworks AX30, in other words after the war is not so far away! But I had my own sound, and had a little apprehensive to change. It's been 8 months now I have, and he did by no means disappointed.
I can not say I tried 36000 models before this one, but still few, and this is by far that I was most pleased ...
So, put 850 in the head ... YES! Well worth the cost!
For my part, I will change my cabinet, for Engl or Mesa (also mounted V30 of course!), Which may give an even better sound.
With experience, I would definitely do it again this choice
