50W lamps
I had a problem with this amp: the distortion was irregular on account of a bad lamp compatible with the amp (electro harmonix, after change, no problem)
UTILIZATION
Nothing could be simpler: two channels of EQ, a big footswitch
SOUNDS
I play most often with an esp ltd ec 500, with big fat baboon emg above.
Unfortunately a low volume, the distortion is rather weak to hope too play metal 'modern'. I would therefore ais given a distortion pedal blackstar dist-x, which works perfectly!
to clean, I noted not because my guitar is not suitable.
BUT! oh oh surprise surprise, the amp has high volume (especially in concert) mounted a half, up a whole new face: the distortion is downright horny! sound is abrupt, artificial harmonics sounds wicked: D, a real pleasure on a cabinet with 4 * 12 v30
OVERALL OPINION
It's been a few months now that I have fun with this amp, which I must confess, my disappointment has low volume, and even pushed me to buy a distortion pedal!
at high volume is the amp of my dreams: D (in this price range of course)
with experience, I would do this choice) no receiver in this price range do concurence seriously
