Description
Docs
From shimmering clean to WARP scream, from '80s-style lead cream to classic blues-approved sting, the new Hughes & Kettner Matrix amps deliver all the milestone guitar sounds at the touch of a button!

Separate Gain and Master knobs for all four channels let you tweak tones to suit your guitar and taste. And that translates to unrivaled ease of sound-shaping on the fly: In combination with the FX Matrix, you can select four fundamental sounds directly via the channel switches or the included footswitch!

With every effect available in perfect quality, the integrated Multi FX processor serves up tasty reverb, delay, chorus, flange and tremolo. But there's more on the menu than meat & potatoes effects, courtesy of the Matrix amps' ingenious Autostore function.

As the name would indicate, the Autostore function automatically stores the most recently selected multi effect setting for each channel. This means that you can dial in a suitably configured effect setup for each channel and switch among four options at will. Finally, onboard digital effects make sonic sense in real-world application scenarios!

The new SC 412 Cabinet offers everything professional guitarists expect of a cab 4 x 12: Huge low end, assertive punch and ace compression of the caliber only original Celestion speakers are able to deliver. And of course a cabinet as stylish as this ships with comfortable grips and robust casters.

"Hughes and Kettner have done it again!!!"
Feature:
In this amp there is a good use of features such as the headphone port for playing in the house if you're being told to turn down or the line out to play along with CDs. The footswitch is an added bonus making stage performance easier.

Quality:
Excellent quality for the money. I couldnt find anything to complain about in the sound from this amp.

Value:
Excellent value for money.

Desirability:
After playing this amp i just had to hand over my money. I went into the store for some simple guitar maintenance and left knowing that as soon as the can was delivered, i would own the Matrix 100 stack

Sound:
Superb amp with a great array of sounds. The 4 channels are very versatile from a very clear clean channel to the warp channel for a very loud, thick distortion. Also the built in effects are excellent and can add that extra depth to your sound. For example, add some chorus to the clean channel to thicken it out and some delay for the lead channel for soloing.

Ease of Use:
Straight out of the box and plug in. And the auto store for the effects makes things very easy incase someone accidently touches your amp.

Overall:
Brilliant amp which is so easy to use and can produce an excellent sound in every guitar i have to put through it. Also, if you take it on the road you won't have to worry about alot of effects pedals because this amp can replace most of them instantly. It is a solid built amp which i can see lasting me for a very long time. If and when it finally goes, i can see me going back to Hughes and Kettner as they can produce outstanding sounding amps that are very well built and very affordable

"Porsche/Hughes and Kettner. There is no substitute"
Feature:
I like this amp because if I want to play at home with headphones I can while my wife watches tv. I have'nt yet taken to show my friend and play with his band though, but it seams loud. It's also great that you can play with a CD, and I like the foot switch.

Quality:
This thing is made in Germany, like a Porsche, it is flawless and seems like it will last forever, and always look great.

Value:
this may be the most expensive in it's class but with all it offers it is still a great value.

Desirability:
Yes, it may be new, but I think I will always be driven every day to pick up my guitar and plug in because of this amp.

Sound:
I play anything, guitar. The clean channel I use for some country stuff, and acoustic rock, the crunch, I use for AC/DC and older rock, the lead I use for soloing and the warp I use for modern metal, with the proper gain you can acheive any sound you want without any pedals.

Ease of Use:
It is very easy to set up to get your sound and switch between them

Support:
have'nt needed any support.

Overall:
I have traveled as far as 120 miles to play every amp in this class and it is by far the best. For you Marshall fans, no distortion at all.The Crate had a lot of feedback, the Randall, I was'nt impressed with its sound and the Vox was just to much modeling but very loud. So buy this amp and throw away your pedals, they won't be needed.
