Great and very versatile amp
I purchased this amp für 380 € used. It comes with the designated bag, footswitch and all cables. Although it looks like a superficial metal amp, I must say that's not the case. It has a very good clean tone, which stays realy clean on high volume and always with a little compression. Very nice for chicken picking.
The 2nd channel provides a very nice crunch tone with enough gain on tap to cover the classic rock genre. With the boost, there is more than enough gain and a nice volume push for solos.
The lead channel push it a little further with more mids and compression. Good for singing lead tones.
I think, real metal players might be a bit disappointed. To make it chug, you have to tweak it.
A big advantage is the compact size and light weight. Nevertheless it can be very loud. Not as loud as a Plexi Marshall or a Twin, but it comes close to a 50 watt push-pull tube amp. A loud drummer will be no problem at all. And with the more mid pronounced voicing, this little thing cuts through the mix, even if you don't crank it to the max.
All in all, I'm very impressed by the tone and feel. I play Blues, Classic Rock and this amp fits perfect.
