Product Description

Delivering 50W RMS of Marshall power through its custom-designed 12 in. speaker, the twin channel MG50DFX delivers the goods both at home and onstage. Each footswitchable channel has its own set of tone controls for maximum flexibility. As well as producing great clean sounds, when you crank up the Clean channel's Gain control you get a raunchy, blues-tinged crunch. As you'd expect from a Marshall, the Overdrive channel has Gain to spare and also boasts the now legendary Valvestate style Contour control, which allows you to "scoop out" or "fill in" the all important mids. The specially voiced DFX section offers Chorus/Delay, Delay, Chorus and Flange effects, plus a natural sounding digital Reverb with its own individual Level control. Add to this our revolutionary FDD, footswitchable channels, a Serial Effects loop and Speaker Emulated Headphones and Line Out, plus a CD input, which allows you to plug in a CD or cassette player and jam along with your favourite artist or band and you have an unbeatable package for the price.

4.5 out of 5 (173 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
"Marshall is gold!"
Sound: This amp oozes that typical Marshall sound, and the FDD switch adds to it's superb sound. The clean channel is betiful - as good as a fender's clean channel. The overdrive channel is also very good. I use this amp with a fender strat and the combo is great. Feature: The features are great, with onboard Digital effects. The FDD switch (Frequent Dependant Damping) mimics an all valve amp sound, which is good. however unlike the 100 watt version of the amp, it does not have OD1 & OD2 channels. Ease of Use: yes this amplifier is very easy to use! Quality: Very good quility except for the adjusting knobs, that are slightly inperfect. Value: yep, the value is one of a kind! Manufacturer Support: Great support, as when we got it from the shop, the power adapter was not with it, so we rang up and they express posted it down, so it arrived the next day! The Wow Factor: This amp is so good looking, u may just want to go out with it! Overall: this is a great combo amp from one of the most respected amp makers. it is just great value!
Style of Music: Rock and Alternative/Punk.

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Read and enjoy !"
Sound: Marshall amps likes to be driven. The sound comes out with a bang and sounds better when you push this amp. Feature: Effects sound great for various music but have to play the DFX volume switch at high numbers to get the true effect out. Quality: I received my amp in perfect condition and seems to be very well built. No problems Value: For the sound and quality, seems reasonable for the buck. Manufacturer Support: Haven't had to deal with this yet and hope not to. Marshall builds good quality amps, and hope to play for years without needing support. Overall: Hope to own this amp for many years. The only drawback is the fan is quite noisy. But over all very pleased. PS: Add a Marshall Bluesbreaker II footswitch to this amp and then whatch it come alive.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

To submit a request for a lower price, click "Seen it for less?" on any product page. We answer most lowest price requests within two hours. For extra peace of mind, you also have 30 days after your purchase to find a lower price; if you do, we'll refund the difference.

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
