No Opinion
You can make this rig sing like a Fender Bassman, Vintage Marshall (Plexi) up 2 a Mesa, It's a very versatile 112 combo, alltough with a Celestion Vintage 30 speaker.
I use this kit with my 50th anniversary stratocaster (MIJ) with a Original '57/'62 Strat? Pickups, Jeckyll&Hyde, Route 66 & a H20 (Visual Sounds Stomp Boxes). It's very powerfull.
It stay very clean even on high volumes, The combinations with Jeckyll&Hyde, Route 66 can be dialed in from Broken Jazz up to very Brutal, I play mostlly 60, 70 rock, rock blues, try to do some Jazz & some Blues Funck kinda than', The KC 50 suits my thing very well.
Even with my SC it's not noisy at all...didn't use it on a GiG yet...only have it just 5 days...I bought it from a friend but have 2 pay still...

Overall Rating
:
10
For now I'll give a 10 for both sound & features,no opninion reliability & Customer Support.
Been playing about 2 years now, still have to learn alot. But still i'm hearing that my playin' is improving...
I the versatallity of this combo, it's not a back killin amp.
When I try 2 play SRV I like 2 compare this one with a Bassman, doin JH I like 2 compare it with a Marshall Vintage it nails both sounds right there. This is my first Valve amp. Heard (read) a lot about them. I tried it once and heard it a lot thanx 2 my friend (thanxx dude) he use 2 have 2 Koch this one & a Koch Twintone. I heard he had it on sale so I co-bought-swapped it from him...I had to gave him my Fender Squier Silver Series with Texas Specials and a Peavey Bandit 112 & some IOU's
