This is an all-tube amp of 25 watts in class A, and 50 Watts Class A / B.

The connection is rather poor, we can connect a speaker or two, (2x4 ohm, 2x8 and 1x16 Ohms Ohms) but we ask no more ...

The settings are: Presence, Reverb, Bass, Middle, Trebble, independent or interactive EQ, then the Crunch channel, a gain adjustment and contour. Each channel has a level of knob, but no master general ...

UTILIZATION

The configuration could not be simpler, for one can be against it time to get to shoot something independent EQ's drinking ...

Easily obtained a good sound, I personally have started testing the various "presets" proposed in the manual that provides a good basis, but I quickly found a sound that is perfect for my game and that both clear that saturated ...

SOUNDS

This amp is perfect for my style of music (Rock Experimental, Blues, Rock 70'...)

I play with a Gibson SG junior reissue, and sometimes I add a Behringer VT 999 for solos, but in my opinion, this amp was designed for the P90.

This gives very nice clean sounds, not crystal (with my guitar but I will soon play with them telecaster) but still well-defined focus, however, the headroom is rather limited, do not expect to play with Pantera .. .

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month, I know it's not, but my instinct would have told Auvergne before the exchange if I had this amp, so it's good stuff, it seems solid, j ''ve tested a lot of amps before this one prestige, of course I can not compare it with an Orange or a Fender Hot Rod, but in a different style this little amp € 320 is doing pretty good . For all guitarists who want to cut down still have fun while on a 2 lamp body, dark, and, if you're really poor, then wedge a vintage Harley Benton G212 below, it goes pretty good ...

With my experience a month, I would definitely do it again this election ...
