Sound Quality
:
10
The box I use most of the time is Marshall 1960A. I've tried a whole lot of amps - you know how it is - the sound has got to hit you. This one has done it ! I usually use two guitars: Gibson LP and a Fender Tele. Each one of the four channels sounds great and different from each other. The clean one rings beautifully, reminds me of the sound Matchless delivers. The Crunch channel definitely gets crunchy, thank God ! As for the distortion level, I got low distortion for a bluesy rhythm whereas for rock rhythm stabs and solos I just hike the distortion way up. The Lead channels are just outstanding. Lead A sounds slightly darker as opposed to the Lead B which delivers that aggressive rock feel. Each channel has its own volume and gain. Together with the master volume this presents a real advantage. I flipped when I started messing with the CUT in the master section. You get the brilliance as well as that beautiful round sound. It's great !

I have purchased this amp only three weeks ago but I'm really inclined to give this one a 10 rating. It is hand assembled, encased in a solid quality box. Accutronic reverb..... beautiful blue LED for the Clean channel. Seems I have purchased two amps in one.

I'm satisfied that by purchasing The Blue I have spent my money on quality. Congratulations to you guys for developing and introducing this amp on the market. When played through this amp the guitar sounds outstanding and will cut trough in a band situation. I feel that my playing has gained a whole dimension.
