All Tube
the "original hard rock amp
ultra ultra puissant.Il need to insert a power reducer (Marshall power brake, THD Hot Plate, Valve aténuateur house music etc etc) between the head and cabinet, this amp is otherwise unusable.
No master volume, reverb nide, or loop effet.C is to say anything that eats the sound.
Perfect.

UTILIZATION

This amp sounds sounds sounds when he guides my steps ....
ring ring ring!
with a power attenuator and all the settings to 12 hours, Gibson bottom, the sound is fantastique.L amp responds perfectly to the way you attack the strings If we lower the volume the sound 's so clear we lower the tone sound swells.
I don 't cry ...
10/10

SOUNDS

For any style of years 70-80
It is the sound!!
Not a copy or more rather less successful, is the sound!
The effects pedals and wha wha sound like ever!
I 'm still crying ...

OVERALL OPINION

Before the acquire I have had many amps (Fender Twin, orange, etc. jcm 900)
None sounded properly, either because it is saturated and crashes, wha wha pedals articulate wrong notes, and if we lower the saturation, the notes' s put out quickly, you lose a lot of sustain and the game becomes difficult.
Why?
Because all current amps are equipped with a master volume and are saturating the preamp and the power tubes are clamped by the master volume
The hand wired marshall 1959 did not have a master volume and all stages of preamp and amp are working normally, there is no curb artificially inflate or just the sound.
This amp is expensive and inutisable without power attenuator, but it has the sound!
I would have saved much time and money to take the plunge and buy it directly rather than the diverse and varied amps that always end up in the classifieds
Yes I do it again this choix.d elsewhere when you buy a Les Paul should be supplied with.
