Head lamps with 3-channel power of 120 watts!

Exact copy of the Taiwanese SMARVO T120H - http://www.smarvo.com.tw/musical_instrument_amplifiers/tube_guitar_amp/t/tube_guitar_amp_t.html

Caractristiques:

* Tte 120 watts
* 3 channels
* 4 modes / sounds
* 4 x EL34 power tubes
* 2 x 12AX7 & 2 x 12AT7 pre-amplification lamps
* 1 & 1 between High-Low
* 2 Overdrive channels each adjustable by Volume, Treble, Middle, Bass, Gain

UTILIZATION

Head amp classic rglage simple, the facade is clear, the footswitch is very classic

Offers the advantage of 3-channel spars:

1 - Clean / Boost
2 - 1 Overdrive
3 - Overdrive 2 (both overdrives are identical)

SOUNDS

Also used with a 4x12 Fame, one that is fitting in look at MusicStore :-)!

the clean channel:

Normal mode: the clean channel is not unique, it lacks a chouillat consistency.

boost mode: very interesting, big potato, a saturation Legre very little rock be obtained.

The overdrive channel:

identical in every respect, they have their own volume and gain which allows you to keep a channel for saturation "wise" with a win and pushed too large a channel saturation.

gain background gives a saturation type heavy mtal anne 80 which becomes more sympathetic as we grow lamps.

OVERALL OPINION

18 months of use.

the +:

- The price in the first, all-tube 399 is believed to dream!
- Sound: it's a real bulb amp, the sound is rich and dense, it is a rgal listen to an agreement saturated.
- Finishing, I was afraid of making the poor and low-end product made in china syndrome is a very nice product, not "Cheap" at all a beautiful object in its finish .*
- 3 channel spars, a small BMOL on the footswitch that comes with that does not juggle the Manir easiest among the 3 (actually it looks like a two-channel with two modes each)
- 3 year warranty

the -:

- 120 Watts is enough, can not operate outside the scene.

- The reverb a bit shy

conclusion: given the price, the quality ratio is unbeatable prices, I'm very happy with my first "all-tube"

For now I am very pleasantly surprised by the brand Fame. Unlike that it reads left to right, this model is not a Laboga dgriff made in Poland or I do not know what, but a Taiwanese brand SMARVO.
