I was really curious about this amp. Won't it be too loud for my home use ? Is the chorus a gimmick I don't need ? Won't I regret not having ordered a Katana ?
I was positively surprised immediately. Some aspects :
- It has a real nice and firm low end wich I didn't expected
- The chorus knobs: This is something totally different than the effect knobs on other amps. It mixes the chorus in the air, by using the stereo speakers. Unique and the nicest chorus you can have. No gimmick at all.
- The bright knob : I like chimey sounds. This is just the knob I needed.
- It has stereo in for stereo pedals. If I want to do a pan tremolo or a stereo delay, this is very easy. Just in one amp.
Apart from this, it had a nice sound. Because of its transparant clean sound it is perfect for pedals. I also use my ampcabsim pedal in front of it. Because it is quite transparent, you can make it easily sound like other amps with such a pedal. In this way it is a bit of a modeling amp too, if you already have ampcab sim pedals like HX stomp, Iridium, ... No really need for Katana models if you have those.
It also sounds good on lower volume, a relief.
I am really satisfied with this amp. It is simple and powerfull. It gives lots of possibilities. Very fast delivery too.
