What it does
An amp sim modelled on the small, low wattage American valve combos of the 1960s: a single volume per channel, a simple bass and treble stack, built-in tremolo and spring reverb. Two gain channels switch without a pop, and there are three cabinet emulations, a 10 inch US, a 12 inch UK and a 12 inch US, or bypass. A stereo ADT effect widens the image as it is raised.
In the demo
Jade runs it in AUM on a guitar with hot pickups, opening on the Warm and Clean preset and toggling the amp in and out. She works through the cabinets, the reverb in mono and stereo, the tremolo and the ADT, plays the factory presets, and finally puts a distortion pedal in front so the input stage clips.
Worth knowing
The tone stack is gentle by design and stays in vintage combo territory rather than modern high gain. Jade pairs it with GtrEQ, a separate app from the same developer covered in the same video.
