My main amps are now a Mesa Boogie F30, Two Fender Prosonics, A JCM800 half stack, and the TSL60 Half stack. After playing for 30 years I felt I deserved and could afford all of them. These rigs will cover all bases for recording, small gigs, and large out door gigs. All have a very distict sound. The Fender tube reverb is the best ever, the Marhsall crunch is the ultimate calssic rock sound. You need both to get the real sounds. I despise modelling amps and solid state amps. They all suck in my opinion.
Sound
Sounds great. Like the clean. Sounds best with a full stack with the 1960B on the bottom. Takes a bit of tweaking to get all three channels set up. I have a JCM800 head that I think would be better to record if you are after that true vintage classic rock tone. But this one is better for gigging for me since I play everything from RNB to AC/DC in the same night.
Features
The features are the best reason to buy this amp. Very versatile for live gigging.
Ease of Use
Takes a bit of tweaking. Many combinations between channel gains, volumes and master volume.
Quality
Marshall is as good a build quality as any.
Value
A great long term investment. Marshalls will always have a great resale.
Manufacturer Support
Have had no reason for support so far.
The Wow Factor
Amp is stunning on stage. I look at this amp as a fine piece of artwork in my house. There is NOTHING that sends a visual message better than a marshall amp.

Marshall TSL60 Half Stack Customer Review
Sound
I've owned this rig for about 5 years now and I'm still discovering new sounds out of it. It is very versatile. From smooth clean to raunchy distortion. If you really take the time to tweak the EQ and volume/gain controls, you'll be blown away by the different tonalities you'll hear. Also, try plugging in different types of guitars. There is a world of difference between Gibson and Fender guitar sounds through this amp. It's not like a lot of other hi-gain amps that make different guitars sound similar. It truly brings out all the nuances of each guitar's sound. Enjoy!
Features
Nothing crazy. Just reverb and presence. The different EQs for the clean and distortion channels comes handy. Just plug and play.
Ease of Use
Really easy to tweak. Just take the time to tweak it as you desire.
Quality
I've had ZERO problems. Recording, gigging, and whatever else. The foot pedal had some issues, but the amp is great.
