UTILIZATION

It can not be simpler to setup, and yet it is quite versatile! I may as well get a clear round if I use the neck pickup of my guitar, and I especially do not push the volume, which tends to have more than a quarter full! but do not worry, you can get a clear powerful enough!
I have not had a chance to test it on stage, but I'm sure she is amply sufficient.

SOUNDS

I play mainly rock show metal, and this little head is perfect! I play a guitar with 2 humbuckers which tends not bad attacked the bridge pickup, and it gives a clean, accurate sound with a slight crunch to the clean sound! I love it!
One can also obtain a fairly round his riding a bit low and lowering the volume. I tend to put the bass almost to a minimum because I play on the Orange PPC212 cabinet closed, which grows in quite low even when the ground, but the sound is very versatile and have lots of opportunity!
In terms of distortion, we can go in no time movement of a bluesy sound, has a really punchy distortion well british, sound big orange!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about 2 months and he did not disappoint me! His power can largely passed over a drummer who types really! I tried every kind of amp before I decide on the one, of course, I did not have the budget for a head of exorbitant price .. But for the price, I think she really deserves it! was one that suited me best!
Originally, I had left to head dual orange terror, but it was not available in stores that I frequent, so I pulled down my choices on TH 30, which I think is a very good alternative to the dual terror!
I really recommend this head!

Ps: I took you to excuse me if you find me a little weak, this is my first all-tube head and my first opinion on this site ... Despite that, I am convinced that this amp head will be very happy!
