Some demo sounds of this very versatile head with a lot of features. On this clip I'm not trying to show all the capabilities of the amp. Thanks to Heikki Kokko for lending me this one!

0:00 - Clean
0:49 - Blues rock overdrive
1:34 - Hard rock overdrive
2:17 - Metal

I like very much the idea of this amp, but unfortunately I was a bit disappointed with the sound - especially when playing heavier shit (though you can get a totally crazy amount of gain out of this). I found the distortion to be a bit mushy for my taste. But that's only an opinion! And I have to admit that I should have spent more time with this one.

The recording volume was "a bit higher than normally at home", but definitely a lot more quiet than the rehearsing or gigging volume with a rock/metal band.

Signal chain: guitar - amp - Harley Benton 1x12" (V30) - Shure SM57 - Focusrite Saffire 18i8. No post processing (except some volume normalizing).

Guitars used: Fender Stratocaster 50th anniversary model, Gibson Les Paul Standard, Jackson RR5 (tuned 1/2 step down).
