    Versatile and faithful

    Marshall AS50RPublished on 02/27/13 at 01:56

    Everything has been said already!

    It has an RCA input to connect a music player, which makes it ideal for playbacks

    It only lacks a MID control. But for the price...!

    USE

    It's very easy to use: You plug in and it works!
    However, the anti-feedback is a bit more complicated to use without altering the initial sound.

    But the rest couldn't be simpler.

    A small drawback is that it's really heavy!!!!

    SOUND

    I use it for guitar and mic. Or in AUX (yes, yes, it has an AUX input), it's not bad.
    The chorus is wonderful and makes sound really crystalline.
    I play an Ovation and an Art & Luterie and get a good sound with both.

    The chorus is wonderful and makes sound really crystalline.
    I play an Ovation and an Art & Luterie and get a good sound with both.
    But be careful with loud guitars (Art & Lutherie on the basses).
    The reverb is very good (I don't understand the negative reviews in this respect: I tried the digital version and it's less convincing).

    The output power and sound dissipation are great (the angle is large enough for a large auditory).

    The sound through the XLR line is awesome, too.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I play regularly in my basement, outdoors and in quite large venues, and it's impeccable.
    As a beginner, I don't regret my purchase and would definitely choose the same product again (except maybe for the backaches due to the weight!).
    Ideal for beginners who want to skip the "bad sound" phase. Faithful among the faithful.

    Marshall AS50R Acoustic Combo Amp

    Marshall AS50RPublished on 09/08/03 at 15:00
    I recently purchased this amp at a local dealer in Evans, GA. the amp cost ~$370.

    I like the sound, style, & accessories available on the amp. It provides plenty of power 50W for playing at home, school gym, church, cafe, or bar/grill/lounge. It provides a clean, crisp sound with reverb & chorus effects. It has many optional abilities that allows this amp to be used for many reasons.

    I have not found anything I do not like about the amp to date. However, Marshall was slow about shipping it to my dealer & Marshall accessories are slow to obtain (e.g., footswitch) as I am still waiting on the footswitch I ordered from them two months ago.

I guess the quality makes up for the delivery. As they say "good things come in time".

    It is very well made & pleasing to the ear & eye.

    This is a well made acoustic combo amp with multiple uses for a resonable price. It is easy to use & can serve for both a guitar amp & PA combined.

    Marshall AS50R Acoustic Amplifier

    Marshall AS50RPublished on 12/09/02 at 15:00
    I bought this amp from Elderly Instruments for $379 2 years ago.

    I enjoy the clean, pure sound of the speakers + tweeter configuration. The chorus is excellent, the reverb passable. Plenty of power for a large room. The notch filter has come in handy and worked well when it was needed. But the overall quality, and cofiguration of the controls on the amp is great.

    An effects loop would be nice.

    The construction of the cabinet is A-1, as well as the knob controls and faceplate.

    I would not hesitate to purchase this amp again. I've loaned it out a couple of times too, and it always comes back with rave reviews from the borrower.

    Wonderful

    Marshall AS50RPublished on 01/13/12 at 07:30
    Solid-state
    50 W
    Jack and XLR for the mic
    Chorus, reverb and feedback control

    USE

    Easy to use. It doesn't sound neutral, I love its tone.
    Very clear user's manual.

    SOUND

    I don't play much acoustic nowadays, but back then it was great because we had no drummer. Crystal-clear sound if you want to, nice basses. The mic channel is excellent.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Four years. Back then, comparable models were much more expensive and heavier! Wonderful finish.

It was also the inputs and outputs for effects loop. In terms of this amp is trs CHARACTERISTICS complete.

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration is relatively simple and easily obtained a good sound. The manual is quite short, but there's not much explanation of head fawn.

    SOUNDS

    It is well suited to use as I did. I use most often with a guitar on the first cannal and a microphone on the deuxime. I also used with electric via a multi effect and the sound is also not bad. The sound is pretty good.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use this amp for a little over a year. I find it pretty well, I used a lot of situations (concert in bars, concert halls, listed in the sound) and he never possible problem. The report quality price is right. With the experience I think I would do the same choice.

    50W transistor amp 2 between spare, which deuxime with XLR / jack / RCA, possibility to insert an effects loop, reverb, chorus, anti-feedback. Full brief trs.

    UTILIZATION

    Simple: you arm, you turn the knobs and you play. The sound is great with my acoustic electric, but I also like a guitar and electric bass, either in direct or the output of the multi-purpose.

    SOUNDS

    The amp is in my first, so I use it a lot. I have an electro-acoustic, just to avoid having to plug in an amp. The resulting sound is clear and warm.

    UTILIZATION

    We get very quickly a good well-rich extreme ideal for electro (I have an ovation that's fine with) so I immediately loved it is that allows me to amplify "the both guitar and voice without any negative effects of each other and I dose my reverb on each case.
    It was quickly comfortable with without having to anything (I started with the amps have always played on a guitar folk)
    This amp is quite heavy for its size but for me no doubt a sign of quality.

    SOUNDS

    I am a country, blues and sixties with my ovation entry level I am delighted and I attribute SOUND OBTAINED WITHOUT HESITATE TO NOTE MAXI.le sound is very rich both in acute low, j ' hear one more string sound very special dificil to describe (as in hi-fi VERY high end) indicating a finesse I like a lot.
    To adapt my sound, I tried to choose the correct sound is the amp is on péampli guitar and came to the conclusion that it is corrected on the amp I get sound on cleaner is a good sign for the amplifier circuits .. hat!
    Finally, to sing, the elimination of feedback from the specific functions of the amp is very efficient so you can play loud enough guitar + vocals, this system very effectively eliminates the effects returns! for the price I am quite happy ... and say that it seems that Marshall amps in the hard rock and I is the country my thing! MARSHALL BRAVO! DOWN WITH IMAGES LIMITS!

    OVERALL OPINION

    You understand I'm a total fan of this product and I use it every night for a month ... it's perfect for a medium, unwanted in a room where it will be very comfortable with his rich, without saturation of such dimensions ... without taking up lots of room ... its multiple inputs are a great advantage. I could not try the above model in the same mark that is 100W (who knows if it I used to play in a room + great ... yeah it's not tomorrow) but this product is double ... so I did not try too happy already .. I headed to 300 Euros and I am very happy!

    Transistor amp 50 Watt RMS.
    Closed cabinet.
    Two channels, one with two types of inputs (XLR and Jack).
    Equilisation Summary (bass and treble) but in general the electro-acoustic preamps have an equalizer own.

    Chorus, reverb, and anti-feedback.

    SOUNDS

    I play a Cort SFX5 NT and I find it very well transcribed the sound of my guitar. I use it as a group for a few acoustic songs and some rhythm to give volume to certain titles. The receiver transmits sound very well from scratches without adding its heat or color, but that's not what I was looking ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    To choose my all, I of course made the gaffe price then I tried several types of scratches on several types of amplifier.

    This model is simple but effective for the price it fulfills its role perfectly, and what does not hurt, it is very pretty.

    This choice I would do without hesitation.

    Perfectly built for my style of music, I play pop rock, folk, I even use it with an overdrive pedal and it still holds the road, it's really perfect.
    I use a Jim Harley Colorado, an acoustic bass, and indeed there is already the chorus and reverb on the amp (which sound great by the way) and I also played with an overdrive pedal. We can get any sound, from very neutral sound with a very specific style. I love the sound pop, folk.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 3 months
    What I like most: The sound power for a 50 watt, the chorus effect: p, simplicity.
    MONK: Okay it is not very heavy compared to other but still.
    Ui I try another, but this one was the most convincing.
    The value for money is EXCELLENT, especially also for the brand.
    This choice I could do it again more than once.

    Compare a 1800 behringer acx is a good amp trs. For the price it is a good choice trs. I use the house for the pleasure of singing club or camp with the children I care for

    I think to start in the electro acoustic is great
    It is a device that is a classic for years on sale in all music stores. This proves that it is a good value / quality prices. This wide distribution can also have secondhand around 190 euros. At this price, it's a bargain. the amp is robust.
    Rverberation the spring is pretty bad.
    For a low budget, this is my exprience.
    On mine, bought used for 165 euros with a chorus rverb and off, I fix it a case of phantom power Berhinger 23 euros and 75 euros picoverb alesis. I use a microphone clamp head T.bone hc95 (condenser microphone condenser ncesssitant absolutely phantom power on the amp)
    49 euros in thomman
    It pope a little (probably like all static but is still excellent keeps the head to concentrate on the mobile game and reading the score.
    over a microphone stand, always teacher, too high or too low ...)
    T.bone microphones are stunning for the price. dynamic hand microphone mb85bta is excellent for a price drisoire (39 I think). I shure sm58 to prfre
    Even if the microphone is lightweight suprieur hand, I no longer use the Hc95 parcommodit.

    I found a small electro-acoustic yamaha apx6 to 175 euros for ten years.
    which is easy to play. For 500 euros, I am really pleased.

    The picoverb has nothing do with the original spring reverb from the amp. This little box is stunning. This sublime voice and brings a different quality of amplification. I used only the "lobby 2" without too much push and it's great.
    .
    for 300 euros you can buy a nine yamaha apx 500 trs that blends well with this amp. It is easy to play and the sound is good trs in this price range
    buy a secondhand guitar is trs risk. In any case we must try. Yamaha are often easy to play, finished well and sounds good trs. But trying absolument.Acheter Internet presents an opportunity for high risk.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It has been two months since I this amp
    The pros say that this amp is not great. but you have to compare what is comparable. in same price range. This is not a sound
    I think for the price at which it occurs and with the configuration I cit rendering is quite exceptional. In fact, it does not happen without a Journe I sing and I can just see the surprise of children and friends when he comes out of entendentce this little amp to confirm what I said.
