Everyone agrees that it lacks a reverb built or at least a FX loop on this little monster? "

I thought I could do without reverb and I found myself more frustrated than anything else for a few weeks, especially at low volume where the sound seems really dry without a hint of reverb ...
I hesitated to buy a reverb and put it directly between the guitar and amp.
I finally opted for Stereo Reverb RV-7, Hardwire (Digitech) that I highly recommend. It is more expensive than others but the quality is incomparable. Even live in the amp it does not distort the sound and is very quiet. Honestly I did not get a good result!
Of course, as soon as we saturate the amp in "thick", the result is not optimal ... But for all the clean and crunch, it's really good.
I compared it to a Boss Reverb (RV-5 I think) and it has nothing to do.

UTILIZATION

Everything is said in other reviews!

SOUNDS

Great clean tones and crunch. I am using less of how "thick" (for the biggest distortion).
The volume is suitable for playing apart in 7.5 Watts, while the amplifier reveals its mode features 15 Watts and pushing the volume a bit ...
But it's playable in the apartment by measuring the well volume. I use the Vox speaker V112NT. It sends fine, even a group!

I love the 3-band EQ mode "bright". She is very influential and really allows a wide range of sounds. The 3 knobs are not there to design ... Crystalline clean tones, hendrix funky, slightly jazzy, crunch, blues, texas blues, country, rock ... Try it!
In "thick", the equalizer is not active. The sound is raw, rich, warm and incisive at the same time.

OVERALL OPINION

Very good little head! Great sound and responsiveness pure lights!

Oh yes, the weak point: the buzz / noise electrical ground.
I tried several different outlets in several places and he will not leave! :-(
If anyone has a solution for that, thank you for contacting me!
This is not my guitar I play on a Music Man Luke 2 with active EMG pickups, so they eliminate many parasites already!
This is not unbearable noise either ... But high volume, it will go well!
