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!
