Feature:
The CD input is cool for jamming. The FDD makes it sound like a big amp. The emulated speaker out is cool for recording too! The reverb is excellent! The overdrive is nice, but I wish they included a footswitch and an effects loop.

Quality:
Good quality, knobs are reliable and smooth. It's like the rolls royce of guitar amps.

Value:
It's worth for the price.

Desirability:
Owning it makes you feel like one of the Rockstars!

Sound:
It really sounds cool and powerful. Too powerful that it sounds boomy whenever i use my ibanez RG320FM( loaded with high output pickups),but it sounds good when I use my fender AM & MEX strat. So, I would recommend TAKING OFF THE BACK COVER!!- to achieve a tube-amp like growl.

Ease of Use:
It's really easy to use, just follow the suggested settings.

Support:
No, I haven't have a problem yet.

Overall:
I had it for three years now and it hasn't failed yet! It can take the constant abuse. Just don't drop it.

Feature:
Well, not great but with that price it works really good. The tune works perfectly and the clean channel added to the proper configuration makes the blues easy goin' ;) GREAT reverb

Quality:
Very good quality at all. The 15W are real, not like other ones. The same power in other amps is a lot reducend, but not in this one. in half volume my room shakes XD

Value:
Very cheap instead other ones. Marshall quality at low price. Good choice I think

Desirability:
Very smart and atractive. I really loved this amp when I saw it, and the Marshall quality is amazing. ;) very good

Sound:
Clean sound in the proper channel but pretty bad distorsion when playing by chords. You must play artificials normaly for obtaining a good distorsion sound. But it rocks when you perform a solo. Best sound if you use a dist. pedal passin' by the clean channel. Excelent reverb sound ;)

Support:
Well, this changes with de shop. I didn't have any problems. When I got a problem they surely attend to me fairly.

Overall:
Well, I expected a better distorsion in this amp. my guitar transforms itself when I connect it to a big amp with better distorsion (I tried with a 100W Laney and the sound made me get mindless). But it works good at all. I really love playing clean blues in this amp. Mix it with a good pedal and enjoy.

Feature:
The reverb's great, and for an amp under $200 you get a pretty good spread of noise.

Quality:
Mine got a little buzzy after after about 2 years of everyday use, so what can I say? Yes, it got a buzz. But yes, it was after two years. It never once conked out, even after it took a couple spills on the pavement moving in and out of shows.

Value:
Great price for a great amp. Some of the most kick for the least price.

Desirability:
It's just a classic amp. Nothing flashy, nothing special, but nothing ugly either. amp.

Sound:
An amp for people who can't decide what amp to get. This little guys only 15W, but the first time I played it it woke up the dog three houses away. Very fresh sound, all around it's my pick for marshall's best multipurpose amp.

Ease of Use:
This was one of the first amps I ever owned and I knew it inside and out within a week.

Support:
Never had any real need.

Overall:
I'd buy this one twice if I had the money.

Feature:
The tone controls are very good. The "play along" input and line out are useful, as is the headphone jack. The reverb is good. A footswitch option and a master volume control would make it a 9.

Quality:
Made in India, quality control ba Marshall UK. It looks solid and well made to me. I have an annoying hum on mine; I'll probably try to exchange it.

Value:
Very good value for money. Solid build, pleanty of volume and flexible sound in a good-looking and economical package.

Desirability:
Well, it's a Marshall, but it's a cheap one. I think it is functional but not, as an object, inherently desirable. No "cachet" here.

Sound:
Good clean channel, more twang than I expected from a Marshall. Surprising amount of volume. I like the Contour control a lot, it allows flexible control over the character of the sound. Good reverb. The overdrive is to my ears not that great until it's wound all the way up. I miss that "edging into crunch" feel. The manual says you can get that when the clean channel is turned up more than 50% but then it's too loud! I think it's god for clean and blues tones, not so hot for metal.

Ease of Use:
I find it simple and intuitive.

Support:
Don't know, didn't try yet.

Overall:
It does the job well with excellent "bang per buck" and looks well-built enough to last.

Feature:
The FDD channel is great for live shows (of course not so bigger spaces), the reverb is excelent, the CD in/Line out works fine, the headphones too for silence practicing or recording, the clean channel is perfect..

Quality:
This amp,, will not damage with scratches nor electronics, I had it for three years and it has respond great, no fixes no bugs.. great quality.

Value:
It's worth for the price.

Sound:
The sounds is great.. it has a very nice clean tone, the overdrive is perfect for hard rock n similars, crunchy and stuffy,, the contour control has a flexibility that fits your sounds either clean or overdrived, the reverb is excelent. The overdrive gain can be a little more powerfull but as its set from factory is cool, and can't forget the volume is awesome "loud!", just volume at 4 and you will get that loud sound you want,, and if you want it more loudy just toggle the FDD the channel it will blast like a bigger amp..

Ease of Use:
Is very easy to find the sound you want with it.

Support:
I haven't need support yet.

Overall:
Great amp, great quality, very nice looking, "IT'S A MARSHALL!"
