I will no doubt have this amp the rest of my life.
Sound
Marshall never fails. I have Gibson Les Pauls, Epiphone Les Pauls, an Epiphone SG, Epiphone Wildkat (semi-hollow), and 2 fender strats. This amp blasts on every guitar I plug into it. You do need to be careful not to stand right in front of it, or it will peel your skin off and screw up your hearing. I had a 30 foot cord made up so I can stay out of its way, and I put it up on an old kitchen table so it sits about 3 feet in the air. I had to lay a blanket across the table to help dampen the vibration, but it sounds MUCH better than sitting on the floor. In the open air, this amp on the table was easily heard by everyone at a park concert, so adding an additional speaker may just be redundant,....BUT the option is there!!! VERY glad of my purchase!!!!
Features
The amp came with the 2 button foot switch. Works fine, with excellent variation in tone.
Ease of Use
See above. This baby is sweet!!!!
Quality
No problems so far. Everyone looks and sounds GREAT!!!!
Value
The sound this amp puts out make it worth much more than the price tag. I have seen smaller amps that cost more, that put out less sound. After hearing the concert in the park, another guitar player I know is selling 2 of his amps to buy one of these.
Manufacturer Support
I have to rate it high. I actually haven't had to call for any support, but if it like the product, I have the fullest confidence in them.
The Wow Factor
Not much sex appeal, but the chicks do recognize the Marshall emblem. So I guess if they see that, they pay a little more attention to your.
