    PERFECT if you know what to look

    Hughes & Kettner TubeMeister 5 HeadPublished on 12/24/12 at 05:06
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    5 Watt lamp head, no reverb, no loop, 3-band EQ, gain, a master switch and a drive, a speaker output 8 or 16 ohms, XLR output equivalent of the Red Box brand and Loadbox a button to delete the sound that comes out on the HP if you want to record in silence. Note that if you do not plug the HP output, the head starts Loadbox mode by default. So, we can just carry around his head without baffle, no risk of burn!

    I do not put 10 because if you need a loop it lacks ... but we bought this head knowingly, so she deserves 10 if you know what you want.

    UTILIZATION

    config ultra simple, and sounds are very good. You can get a variety of sounds, from blues to jazz to funk ... and then engages the drive and then we go from blues to heavy metal. Attention, not NU Metal of death, but to Metallica, etc. it goes, depending on the guitar.

    SOUNDS

    Well as I said, the sound is good. the distortion is so good that I almost regretted not having taken the 18 that she really 2 channels ... But I just wanted a clear sound to put my pedals so this is perfect.
    I play a musicman petrucci and a Vintage 30 speaker in, I'm delighted.
    My pedals sound really good on it, it is all that I needed. And if I just want to play quickly at home, in 2/3 setting, it accesses sounds very good clean or saturated so we can play it alone without problem.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I for a week ...
    I have a parallel mesa boogie rectoverb, and I had a LOT of amp ... between € 500 and € 2,500. Clearly, this is the cheapest I've ever purchased. Oh no, I had also blackheart small cheap 5 w ... NOTHING TO SEE! TubeMeister the sound of a real tube amp sound much more rich, accurate and dynamic. This is a real amp, not a mini amp cheap ...

    I wanted to return to something cheesy and light to move, and with the XLR plug for my live sound ...
    It works perfectly. The sound head is really effective recovery even without microphone! much better than POD simulator genre that I had ...

    10 I will not everywhere of course, but I prefer this little head many of my big amps because it is fully usable and meets my needs. My rectoverb does not sound as good as my home too powerful ...

    So depending on your usage, this head will please you but you will also hate it :)

    I always play with a sound and a microphone to the speaker or live sound with good return, so the power is enough, but without it you can not play in a group with a drummer ... on the other hand to work at home is really great stuff!! the samples on the net do not lie, I find the sound of the well head.

    I price a baffle Fame 1 * 12 Celestion V30, it works perfectly, and it makes me a config for 340 € new ... what more at this price?
