Indeed there are two types of amps, the Leo, typed Fender and the Jim, typed Marshall. You set it up like an amp without having to get lost in endless menus and sub-menus or complicated interfaces.<br> <br> <br> <br> At 25€ introductory price, it's a great deal. The final price will be 39.90€, which is still a very good price for this level of quality.<br> <br> <br> <br> It is possible to download a full trial version for 15 days to test it.<br> <br> <br> <br> Congratulations Jean-Luc for this excellent plugin!<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Until the next <a href="https://theguitarchannel.biz/tag/blog/">blog</a> post, keep on playing the guitar!<br> <br> <br> <br> Pierre Journel.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
