UTILIZATION

The configuration is in the classics of the moment with four floors of preamp. But it's pretty simple .. A footswitch to switch between clean / crunch to OD1/OD2 then switchers crane to move from Clean to Crunch and OD1 OD2 .. You see, it's easy.
You can get a pretty good sound quickly, but I recommend the use of effects pedals for use of personal overdrive combined with OD1 and OD2 .. more tube emulator and a good master to 7, although it farts ...
The clean sound is very clean one, but it lacks a bit of output level ... but it's a 100 watts there is provided in the Master Volume.
The user manual is very well done.

SOUNDS

It is well suited to my style, especially since I use a pedal or a GT5Boss Boss GT3.
Guitars Luke1 or Luke2, Musicman Silhouette Special or Gibson Lespaul Customshop.

With crystalline sound effects chorus and stereo delay because I always use two identical heads in stereo on four cabins (that top). As for the sound distortion, I use the GT5Boss. My heads are still in positions MG100 OD2 1, Bass 5, medium A4.5, A4.5 or 4 treble, contour 5, volume 10 preamp, reverb amp 0 or 1.5, master volume between 3 and 8 ..
If you want a more widened, used the clean sound with a Boss DS1 pedal for example ..

OVERALL OPINION

3 years personal studio.
Compared to other amps ... great advantages, Marshall mind for weight and volume of transport rather nice.
Super value for money, there's nothing else on the market in this range.
and I would do the same choice.
