I owned this amp. It plays nicely but it has its own character. For me the drive channel sounded better than clean. Few days ago arrived my new Blackstar HT 50. I won´t change in next few years. Greetings from Slovakia!

leaving the amp on the brink so soft picking cleans up and harder causes it to break up. but the only reason i know that is that i could never get enough headroom on my blackstar 1w and if i was playing heavy handed it would go into full blown crunch

naaa it is a really good amp!
watch other videos with Tomas Blug he sounds 10-20% diffrent xD
This H&K is the best stock amp Ive ever owned, the clean is a bit to modern to me but the overdrive is just sick!

Respond to this video... also keep in mind especially if this is your first tube amp, the more you crank it the more power tube saturation you will get, so naturaly the more you crank up the volume you have to roll back and adjust the gain to accommodate for the extra gain your getting from the power tube section.... after you play around with gain and volume you'll eventually find that "sweet spot"

@marc85guitar and get that nice sweet tube tone, thats why you see a lot of players use lower wattage tube amps, because tube amps need to be crank to get that nice power tube natural saturation/// for most gigs, depending on style, 15-50watts is plenty for a tube amp.... i recommend also looking at the tubemeister 18

@restlesswildfree defenetly get the stateman, what you describe is quite typicall of a SOLID STATE amp, solid state amp typically sound harsh and thin when crank up, kind of farts and really high volume, thats why you need high wattage for solid state amps to retain that nice tone you hear at lower volumes... on the other hand tube amps like this stateman do the complete opposite at a volume were solid states like your marshall and harley benton would fart out is where typical tube amp SHINE

I don't know if this Thomas Blug is the secret master of rolling back the volume, but this just blew me away. Haven't heard a more subtly overdriven clean channel, and transparent distortion channel on the same amp. Absolutely stunning!
