(Originally written by Sixseven/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
100-watt tube amp with high and low inputs, FX loop, relay, reverb, clean, boost, distortion gain 1, distortion gain 2, 4/8/16-ohm 1/4" speaker outputs and send and return connections.
UTILIZATION
Very easy to use.
Great sound for rock and hard rock players. You won't need to play loud to have fun.
SOUNDS
Very versatile. I use it with an Epiphone Les Paul Ace Frehley, a Wildkat, an SG Korina, and a Jazz with Seymour Duncan 59 pickups.
The sound ranges from low/mid to mid/high when the guitar is directly connected to the amp. If you insert a multi-effects processor (I have a Line 6 Pod XT Pro) you can also get a crystal-clear sound.
I like the clarity of the clean channel and the typical rock sound of the lead channel.
OVERALL OPINION
I've been using it for nine months. The thing that first caught my eye was its price but when I tested it I immediately knew it was the amp I needed. I love its look and sound.
It broke two months ago but it was still in warranty so I sent it in for repair, which took a long time. I got it back three weeks ago and it broke again after just three rehearsals.
It's still covered by the warranty but I don't feel confident anymore. I fear that it might break during a live show.
That's the reason why I'm thinking about buying another amp.
Value for money... Considering the problems I've had, I'd say the quality matches the price perfectly...
I don't think I'd buy it again. I'm still waiting to get it back (again), and when I do I'll take a decision.
