"The TSL100 Is One Of The Best Marshall's Ever"

Feature:
The only issue I have with this amp is the footswitch. But let me say here IF ANYONE SAYS THAT THE FOOTSWITCH BREAKS IN A MONTHS TIME, THEN THEY ARE ABUSING THE PRODUCT! I gig regularly, and I got this amp when it came out, in 1999, and I have only had one footswitch fail. It took a year and a half before it did too, and I called Marshall and I got a FREE REPLACEMENT!!! And this one has never failed. I bought a 2nd TSL 100 in 2004 and since then the footswitch has been upgraded to a more heavy duty cable, and I have had no problems with it.

Quality:
The only thing I would want to change about this amp is to update the controls in the back. The JVM has a great feature, the wet/dry control for the FX loop, which I wish I had on my TSL for my dial FX loops, plus a true bypass on it that you see on the new JCM 800 reissues. Also Marshall's idea on the JVM and Vintage Modern, to use a regular guitar chord as your footswitch cable is AWESOME!!! Come on Marshall!!! DO THIS FOR ALL YOUR AMPS!!!!

Value:
The BEST, bar none

Sound:
This Amp is my favorite. I'ved used other marshalls (The new JVM, vintage modern, and older 6100, and 4100) and Mesa Boogies (The road King, and Triple Recitfer) And this amp is the best in my opinion. Just make sure you got new tubes (if one tube is bad, they will all sound bad, that goes for any amp) a good cabinet, and a good guitar.

Ease of Use:
This amp is very easy to use, and great to customize your sound. The Bass boost, mid shift and tone shift buttons are a godsend. ANd this is the ONLY MARSHALL WITH DIAL PRESENCE KNOBS!!! great for adjusting your sound prefectly. Also The VPR is great at home and recording.

Support:
Marshall has always been easy to deal with for customer surport.

"BOUGHT MINE YEARS AGO."

Feature:
For you folks with the foot switch comments. I got backup footswitches and the only failure I've experiecnced is the cable. Buy extra cables from Part-Is-Parts and simply fix the foot switches yourself. Also, treat the jack on the back where it plugs in gently. That my experience

Sound:
I bought mine when this amp first came out. I've had it about six years. Nothing sounds like a Marshal. With its three channels it is thee perfect amp for playing a variety of musice. Tone is fantasic played with my LP Deluxe or 335.

Ease of Use:
The three channel switching is happening.
