All Tube amp (preamp and amp)

Effects loop, preamp out, power amp input, line output "HP simulation" (XLR), Input and MIDI input for the pedal-switch comes with the JVM 410.

- 100W lamps.
- 4 channels with 3 different modes of saturation / gain for each (normal, boosted and boosted +).
- A reverb per channel.
- 1 volume per channel (preamp).
- An equalizer "Bass / Mid / Treble" channel.
- Two different master volume (using either one or the other) for example, switch from the "Rhythm" to the "SOLO".
- A presence for HP.
- A resonance for HP.

Everything is configurable using the pedal comes with, when using the MIDI connection

UTILIZATION

Configuration is very simple. I set six different sounds with the pedal, and all my knobs are now fixed (location markers sticker on each knob ;). Once the config 'and settings for each entry found sounds wanted, they are registered with the pedal 6 presets and it's good!
I am so a panel of 6 different sounds so I can cover a wide variety of musical genres.

SOUNDS

To me the sounds obtained with JVM410H fit me perfectly.

I get the best of my sounds playing on the neck pickup (severe) of my guitar (Gibson SG) and the Red channel Crunch mode

The sound is very warm sound with good bass rebounded, the very dynamic game, the pick of the attack on the strings .... the sound goes from soft to aggressive round and warm, sharp and just as hot: D

Personally I do not play with the channel OD2 red mode, this makes it overly saturated and it becomes unstable, it becomes too messy, perfect for making all inaudible intricacies of your games. But maybe it depends of the instrument plugged in, then I can only speak for myself.

OVERALL OPINION

Good amp for versatility in all-tube version.

I first played on a Marshall 80W transistor (nothing to do, both in respect of that decibel sound quality with JVM410).
Then I opted for a Fender 95W transistor in, and agrees that any comparison with lamps signed Marshall. No regrets for my visit to any lamps.

I still had some trouble on the head JVM, which earned me the two went back and after-sales service. Faulty lamps easily

We must also say that this amp (in full) is heavy and cumbersome when several times a week must go to room requisitioned. Now living on the 4th floor of a building, the idea of ​​me restart in group I refute the idea of ​​having to at least three went back and to fill the car and ditto for redécharger.

And finally, it is a 100W amp at ALL LIGHTS! Therefore ideal for playing live without using consoles in concert ... but difficult to exploit the warm sound when played in either lamps along neighborhood. A lamp needs to warm up and then being pushed to be heard!
