Type of amplifier: mastervolume Tubes: 8 Sovtek tubes (4 / 4) Watts: 100 Channels: 1 channel (dist on/off) (remote switch available) power on/off and standby front knobs: presence, bass, middle, treble, volume, gain, dist gain, dist on/off backside: FX loop: off, parallell and insert with volume control Master output to drive slave Slave input to be driven by master One amp can drive a maximum of two cabs Distortion: solid state :: My musicstyle is deathmetal and being so my music is very demanding on the equipment. I do not use the internal distortion, even though it is very good and does sound heavy and chunky regardless of volume. My music requires very heavy and fat sound and the internal distortion can't cope. Note: I've never played an amp which internal distortion is heavy enough so.... It suits my needs perfectly

My musicstyle which requires (deathmetal) a very strong amplifier works well with this one. It's very silent in clean mode, even when you are using heavy distortion from your effectbox in the FX-loop. When you turn on the internal distortion and turn up the gain to 6 and the distortion to 6 you're likely to hear some noise but it's ok....it goes with the distortions style.... Clean mode: all from "Eric Clapton Women Tone" to "Metallica super crisp clean" sound. Always clean if you want it to be; no clipping att high volumes Dist mode: All from soft blues to sharp agressive R&B to rather heavy Metal sound....very much like Dismembers sound on their album "Massice killing capacity" ("~Retrometal") My guitar: Yamaha Pacifica 112SD Pickups: Bridge: Bill Lawrence XL500, middle: Standard single coil, neck: standard single coil
