Sound: If you want that classic marshall tone with a bit more versatility than a 2203 or plexi this is your amp. Clean tones are the best I've heard from a marshall (probably with the exception of the new JVM). The crunch and lead tones really rock! As a caveat YOU MUST BIAS the amp before making up your mind. Mine had been sitting in a shop for 12 months without being played. Sounded ok in the shop, but once it was biased and re-tubed (only cost £20 for new JJ's) it was amazing! Sounds best when cranked! :D Its also really responsive to your playing, how hard you attack the strings etc... Feature: Good - does what it says on the tin. 2 channels, clean/crunch & lead. Each channel has 2 modes and it would be nice to change those from the footswitch. Its pretty versatile with seperate reverb for each channel and an effects loop - but its no JVM. Ease of Use: Don't know how you could get much easier. Set the pres=2, treble=2-3, mid=4, bass=4-5 and pick your gain level & volume. Quality: Very well made - mines an early one, after 12 months of sitting on a shelf it turned on & sounded great with just a small warmup. Construction is very solid. Value: Mine was just over half the retail price - used they are better value. New - still pretty good compared to boogies, Diezel etc... Manufacturer Support: Emailed marshall a few times, although not with this amp. They respond quickly and are very helpfull. The Wow Factor: Just look at the logo. Overall: Don't think I'll ever sell this amp - I'll just get more marshalls :)

Sound: love it! it would probably be my fav amp ever, but it's my first serious amp.i play thru a 1960a. i can get ANY sound, QOTSA, mogwai, opeth, very versatile. deep switch and mode switch work a treat. it really is 2 amps in one. i personally prefer 12oclock treb and bass and 2oclock mid with deep switch on at 10oclock crunch with my trem pedal and a tiny bit of reverb Feature: mode and deep switches. the footswitch is physically well built but the lead is crap. replace it. prob change the head to cab lead too. Quality: Could be a shipping thing but the tubes sometimes come loose in their fitting. not a major problem but watch out. Value: YES The Wow Factor: sooooooooooo sexy. prefer it to tsl. Overall: i expect this amp will last me the rest of my life if i take care of it. it's helped me to write across different styles, being able to hear how a certain lick sound on a certain type of overdrive or eq. complements any style of music, except grunge.

Sound: The sound quality is excellent, it is extremely warm. The 50 watt head will breakup better than the 100 watt head Feature: The amp is very straight forward with not too many controls. the only thing I don't like is that you cannot switch between clean and crunch channels with the supplied foot pedal Quality: Marshall is the best I've owned two of them and have never had trouble. They use excellent components, and make a wonderful product. Value: This amp is worth the money, the all valve amps just sound much better than solid state or tube hybrids. Manufacturer Support: I've only called one time and they were extremely professional, they referred me back to the dealer for the correct accessory. The Wow Factor: the marshall script logo says it all Overall: I've never had any trouble with this amp and use it everyday. It sounds just like the vintage marshalls but with more practical features like the bass boost.

Sound: Sounded a bit to..."normal" to me didint really blow me away in anyway If you messed about with the settings for a while maybe you could get a decent sound Feature: The foot pedal and the two channels i guess gave it a bit of versitality Ease of Use: Very easy to use not lots of complicated knobs and buttons anyone can just dial in what they want and you get a decent tone out of it Quality: The build quality was defently that of a higher end marshall you can tell by the weight and how the knobs look all securley on. Value: To be honest buying this new would be silly because for that price i think you could get something better used. Manufacturer Support: I havent bought it or anything i tried it in a music store so i dont know The Wow Factor: Probably would be appealing to many because of the bands that use them and the name of it. and the facts its tube. Overall: Overall 6 Just didint give me much of a kick compared to mesa boogies and other amps ive tried. i acctually even preffered a peavey valveking to be honest.
