Can I use this amp silently for home recording and headphone monitoring?

Yes. The Max power/1W switch reduces output to 1W for silent practice, and a 1/8" stereo headphone output lets you monitor directly without a speaker cabinet. You can also use the 100Ω line-level output to feed an audio interface for recording.

What tone-shaping controls does it have?

A six-position EQ section (Boost, Gain, Volume, Treble, Middle, Bass) gives you broad frequency control. You also get a Clean/Lead channel switch and a separate Lead Bright/Dark mode selector for on-the-fly character changes.

Does it come with a speaker cabinet?

No, this is a head only. You'll need an 8Ω speaker cabinet to run it at full power, or use the headphone output or line-level output to monitor silently or feed into a mixer/interface.

What are the main I/O connections?

Inputs include 1/4" instrument jack, 1/8" stereo aux, and 1/4" FX return. Outputs are 1/4" speaker (8Ω), 1/4" line level (100Ω), 1/4" FX send (transformer isolated), and 1/8" stereo headphone jack.

Is the power supply suitable for international use?

Yes. The regulated 24V 2.5A DC power supply accepts universal 100–240V input, so it works worldwide without a converter.
