A decent recording amp.
Okay at being a Vox clone.
It's overdrive: I'm not a fan.
The tube sockets are PCB and after time started being noisy.
After many attempts and much frustration to fix it, I gave up.
Didn't love the sound enough to keep it.

It was the original version.
Maybe the new version is better.

Cheers man. One of the big music chains here currently has them at a big discount, but I'm still too broke to buy one.

i used to gig a cobra. had a cobra and Dragon 4x12 too.
now i have this
Ruby Top + 2x12 cab...i even run the mismatched V30+GB speakers (what they load in the ruby riot combos)

on paper...specwise it points to vox ish territoriy, but after direct comparisons with AC30s...i wouldnt say that.
the cleans are way bassier and not as chimey...and the lead channel is just different.

i love the lead channel just for leads....but not so much for crunch
the clean has one of the nicest breakups ive played...and i use the hotplate sparingly just to get the vol closer to that sweet spot.
great platform for pedals, and pretty much what i use in all my clips/demos
the fx loops on framus amps are a bit of a PITA thou...0db line level+ parallel(so you need kill/dry)
the timefactor is the only pedal ive had that works perfect (adjustable line level update was a godsend)

some old recordings...
