All-tube amplifier 4 EL34 ECC83 Construct three hand-wired and yes even back then.

100 watt power with attenuator to run it in 50 watt.

1 input 2 output 1 DI (not great so 9) 1 effects loop making a switch.

1 110 220 230 volt selector, a selector 8 April 16 ohms.

SETTINGS presence medium treble bass-master output volume lead-input-gain
no reverb.

namely the master output and input gain are equipped with a push-pull allows the beast to roar like a Super Lead Plexi (cheaply and her big).

UTILIZATION

The config may seem simple at first but with bone up well and by making the proper adjustment is obtained the sounds of exceptional quality (rare except on models marshall 70's).

Marshall is one of the most couillus I had (slp, JMP, JCM800).

the manual is in English and more at the time we Slash gratifying to house 2 settings (1 clean-crunch and lead) nice to give prompt notice of the capacity of the beast and it's a very good starting point to work on the sounds that are looking for.

SOUNDS

Playing in different styles is a very versatile amp but keeps its Personalities

for the blues-rock is perfect with the push-pull learned and good setting is the sound of Angus and Malcolm powerful precise and incisive (council put the master volume and the bottom has four input gain and you get an idea of ​​what I want to tell you ...)

for rock in general sounds ranging from Van Halen to Led Zep obviously going by Guns.

I love metal for good certainly it is not a "mesa chepaqui" (for the big sound and heavy task I have a stack krank-Krankenstein dimebag Darell nothing to do with that sound correct for mimi I have nothing against mesa I remain objective and try you will hear the differences ...) that said I go back to the marshall's typed up Deftones are metal and it's already cool.

the funk John Frusciante of Red Hot uses a jubilee which was the model 2555 to slash the red hot so listen for a preview (and yes at Marshall can also have a pretty clear).

if not all the EQUAL really works (rare for this brand).

details important lamps I installed Groove Tube:
GT EL34 power big potato
high gain preamp kit 25% gain

it is also impor to pair it with good mine is pregnant hybrid
1960a chassis with 2 vintage 30 and 2 g12 75t power is about 210 watts and it is huge, in the enclosure krank is a killer and with the two is organic Cataclisma, atomic ...

for guitars is the same (les paul, tele, gretsch duo jet type and strat frankenstein)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 6 years and nothing to say he never disappointed EXCEPT DI and effects loop.

I wanted to sell to buy something else but eventually I guarded because there is little amp that rivals it can be the carvin Steve Vai and the Bogner Shiva.

I had tried many and amp before buying it at the time and now I keep on living my next purchase will probably be his brother Jumale for stereo.

I buy two of a bygone era.

PS: I have nothing against mesa apart from their politque.
