All lamp. 100 W. 2 entries guitars (high / low), pedal noon fx entry ... everything is there, it's not very complicated
2 Power switch: 50% + modern / vintage which also reduces the output volume.
3 channels: 1 clean, 1 lead, 1 (super?) Lead.
UTILIZATION
The config can be simple if you want: it will sound anyway. Then, for the purists, there's ANY way to adjust to perfection, each knob is effective, especially since there are many switch switchable (contour notch bright ...) and each channel has a 'boost 'which gives more to fishing without a radical change, ideal for a transition verse / chorus.
The manual is not top top, such as English and I had a hard time understanding how the pedals worked. Few additional doc on the Internet, given the small community of happy owners of this brand.
8 because of the manual.
SOUNDS
I play rock, metal but not much potato and it makes them mean anything I want. It's less than a nag Peavey 5150, it's more like the Marshall sound level, but much more versatile and 'accurate'.
I have two guitars, an Ibanez SC620 (model unknown) that sounds good in all conditions. And a Fender Jaguar (Japan crafted) that she, really hard at all. The combination is fabulous guitar amp, the sound is frankly very characteristic, while slamming through the normal circuit and a lot more rounded, almost blues circuit in the 'rhythm'.
The clean sound is really fabulous! A fender would sound just dry side (I'll make enemies).
The first overdrive fills all roles. I have a harder time identifying the 2nd which I use more for solos by pushing the gain slightly more.
But play between light and the first with the OD switch 'boost' delights me in every way, I can not get over it.
I certainly had little opportunity to use it 3x in concerts, at home it's impossible, too powerful. Last date: outdoor festival, the sound engineer asked me to switch the power on 25% so it exploded on its own.
Not 10 because I felt I could never use this amp at full power, except may be at the Olympia, but it is unlikely to happen.
OVERALL OPINION
It's been six months that I have, I only just beginning to learn to use it, it's very (too) subtle.
Tried Marshall, Peavey, Mesa, Engl and Hughes. Some were already very well for me, like Marshall, others were not suited to my game because they are too 'heavy' for me (peavey, mesa). This one came out of the lot, by the sound I expected, almost British, and its accuracy.
Value, the question angry. The price is exorbitant, as 3000 euros for the head + mini baffle, or 50% more than all Marshall. But where are the means additional EUR sincerely. We play in the major courses with it.
I expect to see over time but I think I will keep this amp extremely long seen the build quality and sound.
Its only drawback: the size! But like any amp with a 4x12.
