Laboga The Beast 30 Head

I go back on it, it has no interest, everything has been said already

UTILIZATION

use is very simple
for its clear there's just a knob that makes the character sound is dull or slamming to use it as I widely enough
For distortion, gain, treble and bass with a mid switch is what is.
In 2 minutes we found a sound that dislocated
I leave at 8 anyway, I would have liked a knob or presence of medium

SOUNDS

I play thrash / punk and is ideal
the sound is really aggressive, I plug one in Sg rise SH6
I have never been so many guys who came to congratulate me for my sound since I use

OVERALL OPINION

playing in two groups and fed up having to carry my big rack, I was looking for a small portable head. I was looking for something not complicated, I just need big sound saturated
I had some a priori on the power, but frankly it enough to play live, even with big nags. I just play it in a room large enough without transplanting, and she is very good output, but still 8/10 by volume. but this was exceptional, normally it is transplanted to this kind of scene. In repeat scenes transplanted or bars / pubs, 5/10 in volume more than enough, and 6/10 gain and there: big beefy sound.
Very good investment

It is a small head apmli (by size) 30/15W switchable all lamps.
It must be a little over ten pounds.
2 channels:
- A clean setting with a character and gain. This channel also has a switch for an overdrive
- A distortion with adjustable treble, bass, gain, switch to mediums.
And a volume knob common to 2 channels.

At the rear of outputs 4, 8 and 16 ohms, headphone output, XLR output that emulates a speaker, effects loop, and a footswitch input for (not provided)

UTILIZATION

Harchi its use is simple.
Its clear that we have to turn a knob, it depends a lot on the guitar.
Distortion by turning the knobs and it sounds live.
I do not have the manual with it, but it is useless

SOUNDS

then just has the sound.
- In clear sound. As I there is a knob is turned, the character he plays on the tone of the guitar, but it remains a real hot round and clear sound. That said I do not use the clear sound, but it has the merit to exist and be usable.
A switching the switch crunch, it is sr gain, low gain is a real crunch, and the higher you go further back into the rock. In the end it comes to a race has its TDCA.
- In its distortion. Then it's serious ... I was a little upset at first compared to non-adjustment of mediums. There is a choice, it is either this, or we fall, but we do not vary ... In fact it is very much like that, I rule the treble, bass, gain, I lower mids ca and sends heavy.
I play hardcore punk and the head is cut for AC and all music or you need big sound

OVERALL OPINION

I use this head for 3 months, but I would have bought from the front.
I had my hands and tried not headache, I looked for a small power head hi gain (because the 120W head in coffee concert it was not much of interest) well was here certainly what is best. 30W and frankly it sends far, I've done some concert since I have the time and I have not had the opportunity to exceed 4/10 volumes.
The two problems I find is the lack of footswitch, and for me, it was a little too much gain, I should cut my guitar mic between songs (but at the same time they are active pickups) .
Apart from that, I think I'll keep this mind for a long time, it is small, it is easy to transport and above all it sends wood!

Complete connectivity architecture for me!

UTILIZATION

Archi easy! No need for manual for the facade. Manual which is useful for connections possible on the back of the amp.

SOUNDS

I personally research and Hi Gain amp .... this amp is perfect for me. It is clear, dry while being warm enough. I have the ear and the Marshall Mesa (Dual) ... this is yet another type of Hi Gain. No background noise or other. The EQ is very effective. The mid boost tends to eat up the treble and I'm not sure you really need it. It gives roundness and trunk.

I know how he reacts to pedals ...

The clean channel is excellent too. Very good!
I have not tried the crunch ... too eager to play the lead channel ...

OVERALL OPINION

A small combo but Degomme severe! I also tried the version on a 15W 4x12'' Head of the same brand and it was more screaming (perhaps a question of column) ...

I will test the Engl Gigmaster 15W (certainly less nervous) and determine ... but I really Laboga of points in its favor. I'm curious what is the integrated ... loadbox and headphone output.

Very very good ... but so far poorly distributed (web) ...
