Super small head. I was looking for the sound of lamps for the home, at 1 watt combined with a 12 Creamback cabinet it's the best. Fender fan, I put a dream65 in the effects loop and it's great! For concerts, however, it will lack power.

A beautiful surprise!!! Right out of the box, we're already won over, it's beautiful, classy, sturdy... The first impression is perfect.
We set everything up, plug in (2 12-inch cabs at 16 ohms) and then the second shock, it sounds damn good!!! The lead channel is monstrous, the 3-band EQ is precise, the distortion is nice and thick, it roars!!!
As for the clean, it's brilliantly clear but lacks roundness and depth, that said it's quite "neutral" which makes it a paradise for any pedalboard ;)
The reverb itself is good but past 9 o'clock you quickly find yourself in the middle of a 12th-century cathedral ^^
Originally I chose this head for 3 reasons:
-integrated attenuator (5w, 1w, 0.1w) and it's really very useful in an apartment, at 0.1w you get the tube sound at a contained volume, it's magnificent.
-included footswitch and that's quite rare to note, it controls both the switch between the 2 channels and the activation/deactivation of the reverb.
-the price!!! 260 bucks for this marvel is a steal, it has no known competition, go for it!!!!!!

The sounds: huge possibilities, it's very practical for someone playing several styles or looking for their sound. The clean is decent, close to Blackstar and Laney, ahead of Marshall and below Fender, Ampeg, and Vox. The reverb is quite good but can only be disabled with the footswitch. The saturated sounds are really good and pleasant, especially since you can shape the sound. The knobs are responsive. The 3 power levels stand out well, the 5W spits out sound, the emulated/headphone output is good but it's better to use headphones that warm up the sound rather than studio headphones. It's also practical on a PA system. The emulated output cuts the speaker if you turn off the standby. The warranty is 3 years, which is reassuring!
