All-tube amp 12AX7 / EL84
5 watts good
Between 1 jack, 3 hp output April 8 and 16 ohms

USE

There's no easier!

SONORITS

I like particulirement clean sounds, playing blues and reggae
I play with a Ibanez sz320 and pti korg AX3G for effects
faonne the sound with his guitar and depending on the game, depending on the micro utiliss and tones
I think changing lamps to delay the saturation of the beast and change my original microphone easel that does some task .. (a pearly gates no doubt)
I manufactured a cabinet in which I put a emminence from a fender blues junior

NOTICE GLOBAL

I use normment fun for a week, suddenly my custom tube 12 that I find very good is acuellement in unemployment ....
this is my first all-tube sound and actually obtainable with any lamp is not a legend, it sounds so good you almost seems to play better; beautiful harmonies come individually
A 88th the head it's a big deal I think.

Head 5W all-tube amp.
A knob, an input, output 4, 8 and 16 ohms.
Good build quality, not absolutely cheap.
Look fabulous.
Information easy to find on the net more technical.

UTILIZATION

B # tch, please ...

SOUNDS

It sounds great, and you turn the knob, the more it saturates point. Too powerful to play back in the apartment, but at low volumes it is suitable if the HP is not dependent on the potato that he sends. At worst, the acquisition of an attenuator for a 5W is not death.
His natural style is rock, but it supports very well the pedals gain, which opens to all styles. Good compliance with it too ...
A guitarist can not not have fun with this kind of toy.

OVERALL OPINION

I learned to really serve me an all-tube amp with this, even if it was not my first.
Purchased at the base to play at home without détapisser, but big mistake, too powerful to be pushed without disturbing.
Of its simplicity, it has allowed me to really realize easily the effect of a change in lamp preamp, find my taste in the material, the same for HP.

Considering the price, overall quality, versatility and look, and with 5 years back, for my use as side / buff / fun / homestudio / deco amp, I stick him on October 1st sincere.

All Tube amp (2!) Typed british, 5 watts class A, a volume knob, three entries for the different speakers (4ohm, 8ohm, 16ohm)

UTILIZATION

The sound is what it is it is difficult to change.

SOUNDS

I use it only at home on a 2x12 V30 cabinet (this is my only speaker that I use on my bandmaster and the valve junior) I play blues, surf, rockabilly, garage with a jazzmaster and a Danelectro.
I tried it with my kid who was good but the battery is really limited. No chance to use it in plain in groups ...
I note though that for those looking for an amp to play in the room while the kids are asleep and your nénette watching TV is shredded because its 5 watt are Home Team ...
To use this I get an attenuator Weber and it's done ...

Early in the race we come to have a clear sound not too dégeu. it is on is not good fender but have to compare what is comparable. At the half it was already a good nice crunch. Beyond that saturates quite fast enough but it gets rough. The pedals go well above ...
I play the harmonica as above and it is not bad at all ...

The advantage with this amp is that you can easily change it. I change the lamp by EH preamp 12AX7 and Sovtek kept the original (power tube) and more than surprising result. The clean sound is oddly enhanced and saturation as well. I find it useless to try to describe it to the sound with words but I can assure you that you can easily improve. I planned to change the transformer to improve the overall sound. To see ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it every day for 6 months. It suits me perfectly. I was looking for a cheap and good amp and I found! He serves as a guinea pig for different experiences that I do not want to test on my old Fender ...
Only thing missing would be a bit of a knob tone history can vary guitars.
For those who want to get into the mod amp is a good basis for your future experiences (better than the VOX AC 30 that you get the father, for example lucky)
In summary, for the price you can go with your eyes closed. But beware, this amp did I think that for domestic use or for solo project.

If it can be snapped I'll take anything but I saw a very good experience that I will not regret in any way.

This is an all tube amp, 5w ... but hell, it sends!

UTILIZATION

Heat lamps are left, the volume is adjusted ... All right, you can play.

SOUNDS

My friend told me mnms63 kindly lent with a 1x12 "passive rocktron few days ... and I am amazed.
I tested it with a lag ak-100.
With the OVD-302 belcat was an overdrive, mild to desire.
With mt-2 boss ... We start from a very heavy metal.
With the boss md-2 ... It can even shred, that you ask for?

OVERALL OPINION

I could try it 3 days, and compared to my old combo peavey studio pro 112, it sent ... the principle of plug'n'play I really like, at least, was sound and that's it ... not need to take the lead. Audiophiles should be avoided like the plague, but I like it.
When my means allow that, I think go buy one!

It's all lamps.
The connection is simple and well made. A jack input and three outputs HP 4ohms, 8ohms and 16 ohms, in other words we can plug any hp.
Performance data for 5 watts but actually sounds like a transistor 30w. It's just amazing what comes out of this little beast. In requisitioned it broadly covers a drummer normal limit being to keep clear sound for the past moitiee volume which leads to a high volume output, the sound can cruncher (with a magnificent sound of hot tube amp) while of course being directly related to what you put in upstream of lampli (microphone type, pedals ...). With a simple strat pickups and can push a little, while with double crunch it fast enough, if it is to the TDCA was the natural sound with no additional effect.
The trimming is you can not because we have a summary knob single volume and this is it, no EQ or trimming the gain is crude. We must therefore use the EQ pedal or a multi-effects.

UTILIZATION

As said before the config is basic, with only one knob necessarily, but this one is very specific and dose precisely the output level.
No manual and no need.
The sound is perfect for those seeking a warm sound of tube amp with lots of harmonics, it reminds me of the sound of my 100w Marshall JCM900 combo when I pushed him. The same potato and grain similar except that one is not obliged to prevent the neighboring district to get that sound.

SOUNDS

For my style of music should be quite, you can do without effects pedal and play live, it sounds vraimment. For blues or rock 70 is nickel. According to more modern sounds, we must put the pedals, attention to the choice of multi-effects, digital does not necessarily marry well, like my marshall of aillor. I even made of metal with a multi-base effect over and it sounded good anyway. Please also note choice of HP, like any amp that determines the color. For example a 4x12 it's huge.
Personally I play on one or two HP rocktron 1x12 I plug in series or in parallel if I want to emphasize the grain or the power (compared to the different impedance in both cases) and it sounds great.
I play a Strat DeSUS with us in 1977 with three active EMG SA or SE with a Yamaha 211 (a simple double) or a Fender Lead II pickups with original finish and a Vig Eruption with EMG HZ passive (excellent mics by the way). All sound great with each a different sound.
I love the sound at half volume, or slightly more, it is very sensitive to the way in which you attack the strings and it handles very well the guitar volume, we go from crunch to a clear sound without losing too powerful and is especially logistics light, no need to lug around the van full.
I do not hate any sound since there is only one.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about a year.
I have an amp and multi-effects rack and I had some amplifiers, transistors and lamps with a marshall 100w combo, whose main fault was that he had a huge sound but only at high volume and there was not tenable .
I like the feature, there are several, is the first feather weight, simplicity and ultimately the warm lamps.
The one I like least, it would be necessary to equalize as the model just above and a reverb, which does not seem rédibitoire insofar as one can choose or even a pedal for each effect .
I bought this amp used because I sought an amp requisitioned lighter than my rack, I think it is no longer sold as new and I'm really pleased.
I certainly do it again this Chois

This amp by Epiphone is a 5 watt tube amplifier head with just a single volume control. It was touted as being great for recording or perhaps small shows if put through a decently sized cabinet. It's got no other controls, no effects loop, no reverb, no anything... just a volume control and a power switch. It's powered by a single EL84 tube and really just is what is as far the amp. Some say it makes a great modding platform, and Epi's even done a few of them over the years like that too.

UTILIZATION

Getting a good sound is okay considering there is only one sound - on. It gets slowly more overdriven and louder as you turn it up but the core tone stays the same. Since there are no EQ controls, the tone is pretty much going to be factored by your guitar, cabinet and the volume you're playing at. You could run pedals in front of it to change the tone as well, but of its own merit the amp doesn't offer much flexibility.

SOUNDS

This amp sounds the same with whichever guitars I've tried. The tone is a little flat for my liking and I'd have liked at least a tone control in order to tame some of the brightness or add some more in. Of its own devices the amp sounds fairly generic and boring... I'm not particularly a fan of sterile sounding cleans with no control over the amount of breakup. I admire the attempt but I think only having a volume control is a serious limitation to this amp and it definitely turns me off. It doesn't really do much other than that one quasi broken up clean sound unless you modify it or use pedals.

OVERALL OPINION

All in all I think the Epiphone Valve Junior is an admirable attempt, but it falls short of the mark for me. The lack of tonal flexibility, the rather flat and lifeless sound and the fact that it's so dependent on other tonal factors make it really unappealing to me. They're about $150 new which is overpriced to me considering you're getting a box with speaker/input jacks and a volume control. If you are looking for something to mod, maybe try one of these, but in its stock form it's really not worth much, at least to me.

5 watt tube amp
A 12AX7 preamp and an EL84 in power.
Just a volume knob, no EQ or effects loop.

UTILIZATION

Very easy to use
The good sound comes from the half of the race or size.

SOUNDS

Ideal for the Blues or Rock.
Plugged my Start, the foot.
The sounds are of types with many big crunch (too?) Medium.
After some modifications, the sound is more defined and more alive.
Changing the lamps can make the sound warmer.
The use of an equalizer is almost indispensable if one wants to really use this amp but there is a slight lack of bass anyway because if it rises too low, the sound becomes too rough. The only solution would apparently change the output transformer for a model of superior quality.

I put 5 / 10 without equalizer and 8 / 10 with.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month.
Very good quality / price ratio, better than the combo.
I would do this choice with his eyes closed.
In addition, minor changes, it sounds even better.
His only big flaw is the lack of an equalizer but the minimalist spirit of this amp that does it ...

This is a great amp to the condition of having few effects available in order to have several different sounds. The price may seem very interesting but do not forget the price of an equalizer and a good speaker.

5W All Tube Amplifiers
A volume knob
An input jack
Sories to HP 4, 8 and 16Ohm
An on / off switch

It can not be easier

UTILIZATION

Use could not be more simple: it connects you turn and you play!
No need for manual, simply turn a knob to get the sound you desire.

SOUNDS

For me it's the amplifier to play the blues.
I played with three guitars: a Fender Jaguar Japan, a Squier Start and Aria Diamond 60s.

Jaguar on the output level of the amplifier is low, it does not crunch much, even at the bottom. It's much better with overdrive (Belcat), it thickens the sound, and it becomes much rock'n'roll!

Start on the output level is quite high, the cleans are very nice, very round, it works well for jazz and pop rock that's great. As soon as you turn the knob a little more around 15h we have a big crunch that is beginning to come, and more thoroughly with the overdrive sound was fuzzy boundaries but quite noisy.

Aria on the no frills: all the way! It has been a Hy-per énooorme his bluesy, Hendrixien very, very fuzzy, ideal for very old school blues jams.

This amp responds greatly depending on guitars, you can play with a lot of styles, need to have the guitar and fingers that match.
To me, it can play Hendrix, Led Zep, AC / DC or anything that requires no clean too bright with this amp, it is relatively versatile in view of its features!

FYI, I have a cab 8 ", yet I am the means to pay another. A Wah Jim Dunlop Hendrix, an overdrive Belcat equalizer and a Danelectro.

Basically that's it: http://xkalikx.free.fr/Images/schema% 20copie.jpg

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about three months, and this amp satisfies me to play blues and rock.
Paid € 175 on Thomann, who arrived a week later, connected 30min after receipt, big sound!
The price / quality ratio is really excellent, I would do this choice in a heartbeat, I look forward to change the lights and find a small lamp to dedicate all sounds clean!

Class A all-tube head
It delivers 5 watts of power.
Equipped with Sovtek series of lamps: 1 12AX7, 1 6L6.
Jack imput.
At the rear, three output impedance: 4, 8 or 16 OMH.
At the front, a volume knob.
And that's all ...
One could blame the lack of an effects loop and an adjustable bass and treble, like the Fender Champ 60 and 70 years. But is it really necessary for users of the head Epiphone?

UTILIZATION

Because the bottom line is this: how and for what its use?

resume from the beginning: I was looking for a head, all-tube, delivering the minimum power to be able to just use max sound tubes without disturbing the whole neighborhood.

This head is still little known in France, also difficult to find. So I order one in Germany, for the modest sum of 135 euros. At this price, it was just a good pedal, and more!

Surprise: I receive the package quickly. I open: superb finish! vintage look rather like the head is surrounded by black sky, the front is a stuffy a garnet and a yellow plate. At our center volume knob. Not stand by as the low power of the amp. Rather chic in any case it is very successful.

It remains to connect.

I have two Sunn speakers lying around there, each with Celestion December 75 watts. I plug the cable in series with HP.

I catch my telecaster Us

New surprise: the sound is really, really nice.
The guitar is fully respected.
In the fourth volume is not very powerful, the sound is clear, very pure as any good tube amp, I change only with the pickups of my guitar and the tone knob. Ultra simple, ultra-efficient. Perfect for playing at home while having fun!
A half volume, the sound is clear, much more presence, it slams slightly accurate. In any case, it starts to move to the 5 watts!
At 3 / 4, what crunch? Rather bold for my taste, perfect for playing blues. I feel the micro grave to hear the sound of a BB King or Peterson Luckie! Really amazing that Epiphone. I imagine plugging a Les Paul or other humbucker equipped! And what potatoes! In my opinion, it's enough to play in groups in bars or cafes concert. After, you can always transplant. In any case, the grain is really interesting!

Of course not need manual. The one I received is still under célophane ...

SOUNDS

In my opinion: its very typical, not roots, perfect for blues music and rhythm n blues derived type, soul, funk, excellent also for reagge ...
Very interresting to record, because you can push the lamp without getting high ears or use a aténuateur power.
With this in mind: do not hesitate to involve the pedals, distos, reverb or any effects but rather to stay in the vintage tone. We expanded the sonic palette while keeping the heat lamps and the grain so special.
I think qu'épiphone is unbeatable on the market with this product: how to imagine, for 137 euros, while having the lamp? The concept makes me think of the many old amps lamp of small size used by the blues or jazz (fender reverb, field, gibson ...).
I know there is also a combo version, but with a fairly small bowl (From 8 to 10 inches). The advantage of the head, plug it into any of 12 frequency is neglected.
It seems to me also interresting to change lamps for Groove Tubes. (I'd do that in the coming months).

OVERALL OPINION

Look great!
How simple?
Its a real, all-tube, very typical and well roots!
Only 137 euros!
A vintage style, and the more it moves to the 5 watts!
PS there is a kit in the United States to diversify the sounds of the amp and get such different gains. For sale for § 40 or 50 US on ebay.

In short, I conquered.
Congratulations Epiphone.

T says it all, or almost. Too bad there's no effects loop and legalization, but would probably have largely affected the budget. In addition, the hardware on entry level, the more we multiply the sound possibilities, the more Reduces the reliability. not to mention the breath. The one is calm. Simple but effective. Considering the price, what more? I dare not imagine gure pay the people who make a. ..

The inconvnient facing the combo is the compactness. Dplacer must be a firm, plug, etc.. The advantage that I chose the head is the possibility to connect any type of cabinet, thanks to the three outputs hp. The combo itself to be taken into 4 ohms. Not easy to find a cab collection's outdoor so.

UTILIZATION

It could not be simpler: a switch, a potentiomtre. The manual is correct.

SOUNDS

The sound is amazing when one considers the price of the machine. Of course, I use plutt peripherals with high-end, which helps get good sound, but still same. It's weird to play with a head amp that score less than a good pedals. The volume button increases the volume and plays the Tone. quarter of the race, was a clear fairly open, with good dynamics, a nice heat, but as quite dark. When mounting the volume, treble gaining momentum. Between one third and half of the race (depending on the guitar), began cruncher. At bottom, we get a big crunch, trs a bluesy sound volume to allow aisment fcher with neighbors. With an HP high-yield, it is possible to play with a battery (not too strong when same), provided we do mourn the clear sound. To play the blues in Chicago in overdrive in a small bar, it's all good.
I use a standard LP, a Grestch G6120-1957 Nashville w Start and more. As pedals: a Overtube Jacques, a Maxon OD808, Maxon CP101 compressor and a Tonebone Classic, which provides a saturation trs bluesy and rich. Ct cab, I plug it especially on a Peavey 1x12 E112, with the object Peavey trying to impersonate HP, t chang against a V30.

If you're in love sounds 60's, 70, this amp is a godsend. I put 10, because if perfection is not of this world, I had no idea that so cheap amp sounds can come out as good.

OVERALL OPINION

I possde for five months. I bought it for curiosities rather than by need. That said, I find it very useful, either for play time o my big amps are too loud, or for jamming in places risks. I have nothing particularly blame him, considering its price. It should be raliste I prfre a minimal hardware, but that sounds reliable, plutt a machine that blows volumes and crashes. There is the Harley Benton GA5, which has a legalization (not very effective, he parat) and is cheaper still. I did not test. So no comment.

The quality-price ratio is excellent, unless the GA5 is also good, but I do not know.
This is an amp gnial, but we must understand its limitations: the sound is typical "old", no need to seek the metal (albeit a good pedals ...?) . There is virtually no rglage. The crunch can only be obtained that a high volume dj trs for an apartment. This amp is deprecated someone who has no pedals to add to it (at least an overdrive).

What I take DCID (APRS combo test) is that a lot of collectors amps that Tranent forums in a possdent. A guarantee of quality in short.

Does everything it says, trs well for what I wanted, more than enough

UTILIZATION

It's simple, you turn, you turn the knob and it works

SOUNDS

It gnial. It sounds great, no blast or hum and it trspchu. I have personal essay on the cabinet of my fender deluxe Hotroad and a more vintage fender cabinet is gnial. I had a fender champion 600, 2 also had the first puique prmaturement lach, and there's no photo, nothing to see. We play not in the same court. While the size of the cabinet is not for nothing but to see anything even when. I used m ^ ^ t me that you in rpt, which is more than enough. I use a Danish pro and a fender jaguar, is saturated more quickly on the Danelectro (this is normal) and it's not unpleasant elsewhere.

OVERALL OPINION

That happiness. I love the ct a button. Q / pgnial. I returned the fender champion 600 and took the l. A remake I repeat the same. It's much better manufactured.

On this point we quickly made the rounds:
- Class A All Tube
- 5 W (theoretical!)
- Between a jack faade and 3 outputs on the back for a speaker (4 ohm, 8 ohm, 16 ohm)
- A volume knob chiken-head.
- A power button.
This is "roots".

Add a note to the look of this amp: 10/10
More vintage you die!
I bought the cabinet that goes with it and a has a terrible mouth, it looks like one of the 60 amp.
Do not spoil the finish is exellent, especially next to the thundering price. Manufacturing is srieuse matrial with strong and beautiful appearance, a no-fault which should inspire the competition.

UTILIZATION

L is also not easy: you plug it is expected that some heat lamps, turn the volume knob and it plays.
Amp "plug and play" without the fuss, in the spirit of old vintage amps.
L also is "Roots".

SOUNDS

So I'll start with the basic sounds at first as you will see that we can do a lot with this amp Mylen cot are simple and basic.
There are three positions "dominant" with the volume knob:
fourth, clear sound
half; crunch sound
three quarts; sound overdrive / distortion (depending on the type of guitar pickups)

Small bracket for the power, do not rely primarily to 5 Watts ad! One also wonders what secret or demon contains this amp because the volume is impressive and it DGIG THE FIRST use may make you feel funny if you have good ide to mount the volume before scratching the strings. I take a prciser that this amp does not play a flat low volume and it is better to have no neighbors to take full advantage of his lamps. In RPET you can play with a drummer with no problem. The three outputs on the back of the amp to connect a pemmettent any baffle. For my part I plug it into a 4X12 Marshall and the fact I have more prsence 1X12 cab with the Epiphone.

The type of guitar to use a lot of influence on the sounds obtained. With single coil pickups and the knobs rgages following the volume and tonality of the guitar you get clear sounds of great beauty with a warm, almost "liquid", until the very bluesy overdrive or rock . Start with an ideal that rvle full potential of this amp with a sound to die for. Stunning and gorgeous.

Humbucker pickups with one enters directly into the world of Blues with his still warm with beautiful harmonics just waiting out a solicitation of any guitarist. Volume three quarts, you end up with a sound to the Hard Rock AC / DC and del always specific to the heat tube amps. Try it with good old Gibson is the vamp ensures, monstrous and addictive.

If you want to stretch the sonic possibilities, one can connect to a distortion pedals and (or) an equalizer and sound combinations can be endless with the addition of its all benefitted from the lamps and CHARACTERISTICS this heat. Nothing prevents you from playing Metal with a good distortion, the amp without flinching while cash and rings of hell.
I use a Boss DS-1 distortion that does not necessarily sound good on any amp (especially a transo) and fully expressed on the head Valve Junior, but happiness ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for the past 6 months with 4 guitars trs diffrent each other and I still discovering new sounds. The other amp (the same CATEGORY) now seem quite insipid a cot in the Epiphone. I have tried many other amps 5 Watts lamps (Fender Champion Valbee Ibanez, Peavey Royal 8 ...) and none of the qualities RuNie Valve Junior Head, whether at sounds or the quality of fabication, the look and possibility of connection to any cab and above all price levels are not photo.
I bought it at a promo for $ 169 with his cab and that price is a heck of a case and can not be the.
Facing the competition with a report in qualitprix bttn the Epiphone is offline CATEGORY.
A choice that I remake without any hsitation.

I had the machine for 2 years, I still do not know what a can serve.
Well, the good points:
Finish top, zero noise, volume trs progressive, all impdances prvues, compact and beautiful.

UTILIZATION

It's not terrible, it lacks a low-cut (the clone harley benton was him). Kesako? Ben More is pushed over the sound volume is dirty and it is bold to the point of being unusable.
A low-cut low cut gradually as you want and can really use this kind of background amp controllers.
Epiphone has short t too shy, and when ds has had no other choice but to make a sound that lacks everything, without equalizer or drive I can not see what else eh.

SOUNDS

What was the point? Only few cases prs tolrable background with a tube screamer Modre front (it has a low-cut it) is hot perpte sustain crmeux, tr s nice.
Otherwise a clean sound is dull as dishwater in fat dgueu crunch is short, I see it.
I tried everything I believe, and only a hot plate gives it the look (4times the price of the junior ...) with SETTING THE loudness.
But no fireworks this valve junior is a real dception, especially when compared with Ibanez tbx15r (l is so ridiculous that it is better to laugh) that does not cost more.

OVERALL OPINION

Looking for a straight tube amp to boost your multi-effect is not the need to look at the valve junior mdium-fade beyond the bearable.
You want the sound of clapton in 1920, has the valve junior can do (with the stripes of the disc as a bonus ...) I guess.
You have a digitech pedals (hot head, screamin'blues, bad monkey) with exit out mix, dj ben is significantly better than the normal output, in this case is a rcupre little pep in his clear, too. So is still a go, but in any case I wonder what is a lamp that sound worse than transistors ...
GaryMoore you like, buy if it's made a dj Ibanez TS7 or better, and turn up the volume background. L trs I think you happy, nothing wrong.
The box has the better suited the valve was a junior 2x10pouces alnico jensen (25w per hp), it sounds as fresh and slamming.
But beware, hello the volume is really loud, no question has to do in an apartment or in community. I think the 5 watts before distortion, APRS adgage hairy!
In short take the Harley clone, its low cut is essential if you want to go this way. Try in-store, probably you will leave with anything other than the head minimalist little use in the end (except for Gary cases).
The reliability is remarkable in two years and no zero-order dgradation sound.

Tube amplifier, 5Watt, jack and volume on / off connector for 4.8 or 16 ohm speakers

UTILIZATION

There is no easier a quarter turn clean, crunch to the light half a big crunch very dirty bottom.

SOUNDS

Sympa is a little below half for his classic bluesy well, I play with a lag to RX200 seymour sh1 sh4. The speakers for now bah is a little hard so I probably not exploiting its full potential. Even when we feel most of the lamp, the warm sound.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week, it's small simple retro look with faux leather, I jou a fender super 60, line 6 spider, orange crush, nothing to do with line 6 and a small orange but ct fender found. I got to 55 so nothing to say perfect condition during the trs are not expensive.

An input, volume, two lamps, three outputs (4, 8, 16 ohms), five watts.
That's all.

UTILIZATION

It appears that chimpanzees are able to do laboratory work. A musician should succeed.
We get the sound we made with her fingers.

SOUNDS

I plug in a bunch of electric guitars on it: the simple, double, half-box, in the twelve strings.
However, I found it a little blurry. Not enough bass or slapping. I brought up the new lamp by a specialist (the guy who makes amps Plextone in Toulouse). He took out his trash in 1962 with a Sylvania air ecstatic alchemist who has found a new recipe Larchmütz, he stuck preamp and it has another, which I immediately forgot the reference to amplification. Since it is much better, more dynamic, more compressed. And creamy enough when you go up the towers.
I play in apartment. I do not go above the 9 / 10 hours. Beyond that, it is the invasion of Chechnya by Russian tanks.
Whether denervation cruncher type punk, I put a preamp Line 6 AM4 (something quite rare on which I wrote a review).
I have a Boss ME 50 effects and a boost Plextone (always the same alchemist Toulouse) before I plug the multi-effects.
Result is not crystal-Fender is still not spoof, it does not cost 100 euros, but that's fine. That said, I always thought that the guitars are paramount and that it is the most simple amp in extrayent the substantial sonority. He is the quintessential.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had two years. I tried just about everything that exists. Because art. All in all, I wonder if I want to go beyond this facility.
