Kelt Amplification (keltamplification.com) is a French boutique tube amp brand founded by Thierry Labrouze. The F-Type is one of the new model recently introduced, it is a 15W all tube Fender style amp with a tube driven reverb.
The video below was recorded live during an FAQ broadcasted on December 27th 2023 in French on La Chaîne Guitare (lachaineguitare.com). All the playing sequences were put back to back.
Keep in mind that it was a live broadcast with all the imperfections from my playing.

- Pedals (on and off in the video) : Blues Driver Boss and Flint Strymon

Conclusion
This F-Type Kelt combo sounds terrific. The integrated tube reverb sounds superb, even with extreme settings shown in the video.
While we await a full test of this amp, I hope this live demo has given you a good idea of the amazing quality of Thierry Labrouze's work.
