Marshall Amp-100W lamps.

-A guitar input, the beast is a socket for the footswitch, ansi another for loop etc ...

Presence of a stand-by and a reverb.

-Two separate settings for both channels are also footswitchables (the boost is also).

UTILIZATION

Setup is simple, the sound is directly worthy of a Marshall clean the lens may be a desire for what is OverDrive channel, it goes from its blues / rock pretty vintage has a big hard rock, guns n roses, stopping at the gates of metal, because you can really get a satisfactory result in distortion of matter (the nightrain guns passes wonder).
It will sometimes push the volume a bit (and I mean a little) to get into a real sound has lamps (normal you tell me) without taking off your wallpaper.

SOUNDS

It should be my style of music because I play a lot of Guns n roses, being a fan of Slash, who plays Marshall, I am very satisfied with the range it offers, I also love the blues, but I do not play no metal.
Coupled my Epiphone has equipped itself gibson 57 classic I can tell you that it sends the pate!
Before buying online (used) I was a little apprehensive with respect to the quality this amp being given that opinions are mixed, and often negative, which aileurs is absolutely not I find justified.
I decided to buy it after hearing it (gewerh44, a guitarist that I discovered on youtube uses for all his videos, I suggest you to go if you are interested and you have no opportunity to try it, it is thanks to him that I have chosen, I have absolutely no regrets!)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for two weeks and
it is simply huge!
It really is very versatile, this is what I like a lot at home, you can play everything (for the good hard metal are planning a pedal anyway).

This is my first tube amp, before I played a Peavy Vypyr 15 is a day / night, I took a blast to play since I'm acquiring this very-large-Marshall, j 'I also tested a few amps before buying as the Hot Rod deluxe Fender (which is also good, but more expensive).



/!-Note that I bought used for 350 € and the price / quality ratio is established from this.


Goodies:

-The incredible versatility of this amp

-The excellence of his marshall

-The 100W lamps very manageable at home, contrary to popular belief-!
(For comparison the sound is also easy to manage with my Peavy vypyr (15w modeling)

The price-quality ratio

The comfort-100W to repeat / play with a group.

-The design (I find super class, the Marshall logo is for something)



Cons:

-The size is big

-The weight and very heavy



In short, this comparison shows all the good things about this amp, the sound of the legend reach of every budget, a killer to try as soon as possible, see for yourself if you can in store, otherwise look on internet, I hoped to have helped you to choose, in any case I do it again this choice rather than ten times!
