UTILIZATION

This head works like any other so no surprise this level!
Equalization, due to its effectiveness, against a request by some precision to draw
the best ...
there is no manual ..... but who needs it?!

SOUNDS

I play everything and this head is remarkable for its versatility.
As hardware, I use an Ibanez AS83 with a SH2 and SH4 / hardmaster a lag and a sub 4 * 10 (2 + 2 V10 10CS).

* Clean Channel
It sounds great in jazz, or blue, either on agreements or arpeggios.
The switch really brightens the sound, and it is very interresting to play with
knobs guitar tone for a smooth and clear.
If you push the clean channel crunch BEYOND 2-3. For crystalline cleans this can be a
fair bit (even with 50 watt) if the tape really loud drummer, it says up to 4-5 it remains relatively
provides a clear and sound style of Oasis (a clean slightly dirty)
switch with the crunch becomes more aggressive, great for blues such plans ...
To simplify, we can summarize the channel clear in saying that it is quite close to the spirit Fender (and I would suggest it is more crystalline than the latter if you stay at a moderate ... as is the case when you are transplanted for example!).

* Overdrive Channel
This channel is aptly named, although in reality the overdrive still has the fishing a spare!
It allows you to switch between the type Aerosmith (gain to 2-3) was the big rock'n'roll (Hellacopters, SNFU ...)
not too heavy or nag .... Deicide fan, mad with palm muting and other lumberjack (!) place your
head this way is not for you!
But I also use this channel with a slight boost (which adds only the volume and no gain)
and some equalization in the mediums, the head gives me very good sound for the metal
of 90 years or sounds hardcore ... (Madball.. Propaine). I also got very good results with tubeman from H & K.
The yet to summarize, I would say its a Marshall type rating but with a sharper, much like
the orange amps ....
Absolutely no problem regarding the volume on this channel!

Only small downside, the effects loop is not switchable (it is active all the time) and therefore requires a
with multi bypass.

output provides a line out the sound of a quality average, but close enough to the real record in terms of
equalization (which is more difficult to achieve with mics) ... But do not expect to realize
with your model. The signal is quite low, even when we get a lot of blows
amplifying it. As on most heads this is the DI output to troubleshoot more than anything else and
not replace in my opinion a registration with one or more micro ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have this head for a year soon, I must say that I bought after having lai
Listen samples at the site of the brand, samples of a rather average in quality
compared with the means used by other manufacturers to convince us.
Jai then buy the head without "really" know and rather out of curiosity I have to admit!
I tried quite a few other heads above without ever finding what suited me
(The clean was good but the distortion blah ... or vice versa) ... I then gave him a chance,
and it represents for me the best compromise I have ever heard at this price. The report
quality / price ratio is almost unbelievable, the finish is impeccable and do not be ashamed, even
front of mesaboogie for the sound if you are looking for in a book blues / (hard / heavy) rock,
This head is a test urgently!
My curiosity was more than pay for that choice and I would do without hesitation!

This amp all lamps (Laboga so surprising) sduit me grace its power and grain ...
50 watts? yes but what power, a real hidden bte derire this vintage look!

UTILIZATION

The config is pretty simple, for his aggressive, no need to push back the gain, the output is standard in DJ 2 / 3!
No manual config but can quickly go TRS matters!
Only minor complaint, the switch for bright and channels, which seem somewhat fragile ...

SOUNDS

Plutt orientemtal even if it is fairly versatile, it also allows for a coarse-grained rock.
Uses a Gibson SG humbucker, it sounds the death!

OVERALL OPINION

Report quality extra price!

For specifications, see above.
Nevertheless, it should be noted that this amp handmade in Poland.

UTILIZATION

Simple configuration, yes: you connect, you turn the knobs and play.
I did not have a manual, but no need to book. You turn the knobs and hear the consequences.

SOUNDS

I play Rock / Hard Rock / Metal.
This head is clearly typed blues, rock, but you can go to hard rock. For the metal is too tight.

His clear
to have a really clear sound, you have to play with the knobs I played with EMG active and very quickly it crunch. Therefore playing with knobs on the guitar. It happens, however, have a clear right

Its saturated:
the overdrive is more the domain of this mind: the crunch is nice, but I do not play too much crunch, I'm not best placed to talk about it.
When mounting the knob gain, you reach the saturation Rock and Hard Rock and now we feel that this is the area's favorite amp. The adjustment knobs on its influence well as the switch "bright".
To touch the metal it should add a boost, MXR Zakk Wylde kind.

The more one pushes the master and the sound becomes more dynamic. It also feels better when you change the switch activates the "bright".

OVERALL OPINION

I use this head for 1 month now. I chose this head because I could find the opportunity.
Before choosing this head, I tested the heads Egnater Rebel 20 and 30, Marshall Haze, Blackstar HT5, Vox Nightrain.
The value is excellent, and for this reason that I took this head, even if it is 50w which is great for playing house.
