All user reviews for the Marshall AVT100

I bought this amp at Sam Ash Music for $659 because I needed an amp that I could do small gigs with.

The sound is good, when it works. I play a Strat, and I can get pretty good Marshall/Strat sounds out of it (Jimi, etc) considering it's a valve amp. You can get a nice dirty blues sound out of channel 1 and the onboard reverb sounds are very usable.

You can get a really nice bluesy sound out of it with dist. channel 1, but I couldn't get that nice screaming lead sound that you need to really rock out. I found channel 2 is useless unless you're playing metal power chords or something muddy.

Also, you can only select one on-board effect at a time, so you can't for example choose a reverb setting + delay or chorus, which is annoying. The Boss petals I have are much more adjustable and sound better than this unit's effects. I only used the reverb settings regularly.

I don't know whether or not I just ran into some bad luck with this one or if they all suck, but after two months it crapped out--I couldn't play it at more than 1/8 max volume without it popping and crackling. I sent it in for repair, and when it came back (6 freakin months later!) it broke again after 2 weeks. I didn't even play through it that much or anywhere near gig volume during that time. I met a guy who had the same problem with his AVT10, so I'm pretty sure its not just me.

For sound quality, I'd give it a 4. For diversity of a sound, I'd give it a 3. 'Cause it keeps breaking, nothing else really matters. Don't buy one.

I paid $699 plus tax for this amp at a local music store a couple years ago, and it still sells for the same amount today, even on eBay. I suspect the price will go down in a year or two. Obviously, I was looking for quality at a reasonable price. Then again, pretty much anything Marshall is quality.

I like everything about this amp. Its sound and performance qualities are greater than entry-level Marshall amp quality (AVT 50, etc.).

The AVT 100 comes with tons of on-board effects. You will not need effect pedals when you have one of these awesome amps. The on-board effects alone will be adequate enough for most guitarists' needs, this eliminating the need for external effects. The AVT 100 can add a wide range of reverb, delay, chorus, fladge and plates -- just to name a few programs -- to your sound. I like how you can adjust many aspects of the effects that you add to your sound. For instance, if you are adding delay to your sound, you can not only adjust the delay time, but the intensity of the the delay. That's Marshall quality for you.

There are three channels. Each channel has its own volume level, gain level. The overdrive channels share the same tones. This can become a little counter-productive because you may wish to keep the tone settings for one overdrive channel, but need to change them for the channel. Therefore, you will need to copy the tone settings on a piece of paper for the previous channel before you switch tone settings. It's amazing how versitle Marshall makes their amps, and the AVT 100 is no exception. The volume and gain levels of each channel are completely independent of each other, therefore changing the levels will create totally different sounds. High volume and low gain can create a British sound, yet high gain and low volume can create a grunge sound. Amazing versitality.

As I mentioned, the tones reflect the very essence of Marshall sound. Lots of bass will put foundation in your sound, kinda like making your sound deep and bodied. Middle tone will give your sound some meat; adding dimension to your sound. Added treble will increasingly produce that beautiful, trademark Marshall ring sound in your guitar sound. The channels have scoop/bright buttons, which take a little experimenting with before you start developing your own original sound.

The first channel is clean. You can definately reproduce the vintage sound of the 50's through this channel, especially with the bright button turned on. The first channel is perfect for truly hearing what your guitar sounds like. The second channel is capable adding pop/rock gain to your sound. Think Matchbox Twenty to Madonna to Prince to The Doors to The Rolling Stones. A very diverse channel and my personal favourite channel of the AVT 100. Marshall comes through with the goods with the third channel. The third channel is capable of adding Nu-Metal gain to your sound. Think Korn, Linkin Park.

Because two channels share the same treble, middle and bass tones, some degree of counter-production occurs when changing settings. Changing settings can be the effect of switching channels or simply desiring a different sound. Time is lost when you need get a pen and paper and copy the tone settings before changing them to, say accomidate a different channel/sound. This problem could be avoided if each channel had its own tones, and the tones of each channel were completely independent of each other channels' tones. I would recommend Marshall add independent tones for each channel.

The third channel, as brutal and extreme as it is, has very limited use and is not as versatile as the other two channels. In other words, the only use I've found for the third channel is the genre nu-metal, which is just one water droplet in a sea of music. I think this thought is just a simple opinion, but a popular opinion (the thought that the third channel is limited in musical application). Marshall should add more versatility to the third channel by maybe not adding more gain, but sound. I don't know, just a thought.

The AVT 100 is so great that you start imagining what it would have been like if you spend a few hundred dollars more and bought the AVT 250. You start getting a little jealous of the AVT 250, if only for its more features, but you remain satisfied with your AVT 100. Just sometimes you think about other amps, like the AVT 250 and how slightly greater the AVT 250 is.

I like how Marshall amps have been described in the past, so I'm going to say what everybody else says about a Marshall amp and call it a tank. It really is a freakin' tank. They smell good too. Has anybody ever noticed that? When you buy a Marshall amp you not only get audio quality but smell quality. They smell so good. Yeah.

But I've had people sit and stand on the AVT 100, and it didn't even phase the amp. The screen is a bit thin. I'm guessing the screen would tear if you kicked it or smashed your guitar through it. It handles heating effeciently. It has a nice vent on the top which is supposed to be left clear, and for good reason too. The handle is rubber, which I guess is overall the best material to make a handle out of.

The amp's knob area is shiney and gold-plated. You really get that Marshall feel even by looking at the amp. I've seen and played with other amps, even Mesa Boogie, and we're not even talking about audio here, but asthetically, all other amps are ugly. Not even visually can other amps compare to the AVT 100. Here you get, originally designed, gold-plated knobs that look like they belong on a wonderful amp. The numbers and words around the knobs looks proportional to the knobs, so nothing looks out of place.

The values of the AVT 100 -- such as its sound, features, performance -- are worth more than $699. Marshall proves again why he is the king of amps. Marshall makes the best amps, okay, but you, the player, get the glory by playing through the AVT 100, because it will enrich your sound and make you look professional.

Purchased this baby from the Guitar Center. Sounded awsome - no other way to put it. I paid $675 (pre tax)

I checked out Marshall's lower line of amps, the 'MG' series, and thought they sounded pretty darn good. I had a MG15DFX and liked it so much that I thought it was time to move up to it's big brother, the MG100DFX. So I bought it, took it home and played on it for a few days but something was lacking. I just couldn't get the fullness I was looking for. I went back to the Guitar Center and checked out the AVT line that I've read many good things about and WOW! What a difference! The AVT50 had way better sound than the MG but the AVT100 with all it's channel's and effects was just that much better. Lots and lots of bottom, great mid range and ear piercing highs. I mean, this amp has a serious amount of bottom. It's gonna boom through anything or anyone I play with. So I took back to MG and exchaged it for this one. It has 3 channels, clean, OV1 and OV2 which are all foot-switchable and a DFX circuit - also foot-switchable. Nice selection of effects too. Both overdrive channels sound great but OV2 is the most fun to play with. And the foot switch, unlike the one that came with the MG, has LED's on it so you know which channel is selected or whether the effects are enabled without have to turn around and look or to have to take a guess. The only FX down fall is that there isn't a seperate reverb channel with it's own foot switch. They did engineer on effect that has reverb with it (it's a chorus/reverb and chorus/delay/reverb) which I like a lot.

Kind of heavy.
Reverb effect not independant from the other effects.
Don't care much for the "scoop" setting but I don't play that type of music anyway (metal/grunge).
Spent a little more that I wanted to but it will be worth it.

Very, very solid built construction with a heavy duty foot switch.

Fantastic sound, great effects, well built. Spend a little more for a great amp.

I bought this amp over the internet for 699 dollars. I read good reviews about this amp saying how intense the "marshall tone" was in the overdrive channels , and most importantly for me, how reminiscent the clean channel was of fender tube amps. I confirm this by the way. Therefore, i went ahead and got this amp.

I love a lot of things about this amp. First of all, the overdrive channels have a good tone. OD1 is pretty loud and allows one to get led zep, ac/dc type tone pretty easily. OD2 is where the true marshall tone comes into play...great tone and grain, pretty bassy too. My favorite thing about this amp is the clean channel...OH MY GOD! This channel is like cream, water or anything that is smooth and silky. Without any effects running, you can get a nice country, or light bluesy type of sound, and when applying a little chorus, it makes your jaw drop...really. Plus this channel is VERY loud. Overall i give a 9.9 to this channel, no doubt. I just reminds me so much of fender cleans.
Also, there are 16 effects available with this amp. However they are average. Only reverb and chorus are good, and maybe delay too. I don't really use the effects on the amp, i have pedals instead, i prefer that. However i often use the chorus on the amp though.

On this amp, there really isn't much that I don't like. I would like for the OD channels to be at the same level as the clean channel, but besides that...nothing.

I have had this amp for just two weeks so i don't know if it's very reliable YET, but it seems like anyway. This quality of the amp is irreprochable. Just sublime.
I've always loved how marshalls sound AND look like!

The Marshall AVT100 has a lot of good aspects and has very few negative sides to it.
The three channels, the clean, and the two overdriven channels are great, althought the clean channel is better overall than the ODs. The clean channel is noticeably louder than the overdrive channels and its tone is more tube like than the overdrive channels. The tube in the preamp does its job very nicely. For people considering to buy this amp, I would definitely say go fot it, you won't be dissapointed For people who think the OD channels might not be loud enough for larger gigs, the PA output will make your sound SCREAM, or you can also get an extension cab...
Overall GREAT AMP!!!

I acquired this amp at Mars Music during their closing sale for $479, 20% off street price of $599. My wife told me to find my Christmas present, so I told her I'd save her money if I bought it now. I always wanted a Marshall for the build and tone possibilities.

The AVT-100 has 3 adjustable channels, clean, OD1, and OD2, all footswitchable. The 16 effects are switchable in/out from the LED indicator footswitch as well, so it's easy to tell what's on or off before hitting a string. The variety of tones are great from serious OD fuzz to clean, then everything in between. I run my Strat, Tele, or Steinberger through it, but have yet to try my Alvarez acoustic. They all sound fantastic! I cranked it to 5 and was shaking stuff in my basement. This summer I'll take it outside and give it a real test!

Some of the 16 digital effect are useful, but you can't combine them. There is 1 effect that combines delay and chorus, but that's it. The flanger effect doesn't seem to have much range. If they could remove some of the many reverb settings and allow users to create their own combinations and save them as 'user settings', that would be useful! In the meantime, I'll use my pedals.

It is solid and it shows by it's 60 pounds of mass! I don't intend on gigging with it as I'd be too afraid of dropping it and banging it up, but it feels like it could take the abuse. I haven't found a flaw in the appearance. The build-in fan keeps it cool. The footswitch is all metal.

My '64 Princeton Blackface was my only prcatice amp before being joined by the Marshall. And if I thought I REALLY needed it, I would have bought a Marshall Halfstack, but the AVT-100 Combo fits my needs... and then some. Besides, I don't need to get THAT loud playing at church! I will buy another Marshall, someday. Maybe when they make the effects 'user' settable. I'd give it a 5 for the build quality, sound, and even the name, but the effects are better left to a pedal board, so I dropped it to a 4. But, buy this amp!

$900 CAD

The distortion on this amp is nice and heavy. Masses of gain for an amp of this size. The clean channel blew me away. I was very surprised to get clean channel that sounded as good as this.

If find that for a 100 watt amp, it's a little underpowered. I guess only running through a single 12 may be the reason. It will most like likely sound better plugged into a 4-12 cab.

Just got it, but it seems like it's built like a tank.

I am quite glad with the purchase, I love the distortion on both od1 and od2. Just wish it had a bit more punch on the distorition channels.

See below.

UTILIZATION

Config pleasing to the eye and use easily accessible. sounds obtained are typical marshall, ie very good in saturation, lower in the clean sounds.

SOUNDS

As mentioned below the button is nice scoop to boost a little deeper sound medium and throughout the distos are really the height, we get a heavy sound that metal fawn spot, but we just settle aisment the knobs for a less violent rock, even a little blues / rock very successful (which is not the strong point of marshall). saturation of the three channels are super convenient and it's hard to do without once you taste it.

OVERALL OPINION

I have been using qq weeks and the fact is that I took it for its three channels and only a saturation. I took a lot of fun with this amp (I have not kept), to say the least. Unfortunately, I prefer my 1000 much more versatile performer, the sound is all over the compartments and is radically different from what is heard elsewhere.
the avt 100 has a very very good value / perf / price and is also well placed on the market facing the concurrency. a good investment after all.

- Amp Hybrid: a lamp in the pre-amp transistors and for the rest.
- 100 Watts
- 3 channels: clear, 1 overdrive, overdrive 2.
- Effects loop (reverb, chorus, delay ...)

UTILIZATION

Simple to use, the advantage is to rgler channels separately. The equalization of the two channels of overdrive is common, which is a shame.
The effects loop is not very practical, because you can not switch between effects, must be done by hand.
For cons, I found the setting of acute, low and medium rev not effective, the sound changes as not incomparable with any lights.
The manual is like all the manuals, not really useful, it is better to rglages its own

SOUNDS

It's a versatile amp, you can play all styles with. The sound is clear and well frankly the range of distortion is variable. The overdrive channel is just no one I got, the sound is really dgueulasse. The rest are not bad.
Even when I put a big flat, this amp is far trs but then a far cry from a real Marshall amp lamps (jtm45, JCM800, etc.). He's only got my name Marshall.

OVERALL OPINION

- I used less than a year since I sold it because you can buy for that price the amp all lamps more efficient and enjoyable (see the peavey ct or fender amps that offer incredible in the same price range as an unparalleled sound with avt)
- I must say that I found really quite clear, for the rest bof ca is cold and metallic. The reverb did not convince me either, and yet it is essential.
- We can do well trs repetitions or scne with this amp. That said, if you have another guitar amp with 30 watts lamps, you will explode your avt no problem.
- If c'tait again, I would buy a brand lamps for the same price, also I will do

It's really good stuff in trs trs marshall
I put the note up, but if I could put half + I +
I went from a 15W Peavey (blazer thing ..) has this monster (100Watt)
and believe me we are quickly satisfied with the product rev (675 mi I in I've never regret)
A pedal-effects numrique comes with it trs trs useful when you have a cot and a multi purpose we want to move to go to change channels on the amp, it is at foot (alala THANK marshall), but that's not all thanks to this pedal effects numrique pti was a multi purpose key with amp (Digital FX) to add reverb Chorus of the flange the delay ... Finally, a lot of stuff to mix with the other
in short it is a complete amp.

Not so hsiter

UTILIZATION

Trs easy to use
Manuel explained well

SOUNDS

For large Metalosis like me (dimmu borgir, cannibal) and other big sound like a
you take a good multi effect even when a cot for a 10X its biggest

A clean channel exellent
2 channel -> Overdrive 1 & 2
on a relatively soft rock style ACDC all a. ..
and 2 (I prefer for large bourrain

PS: The overdrive channel is about 1 & 2 are not powerful in themselves, they have a trs good sound but not powerful
on the other hand you will feel the difference if you use a good multi effect (or workstation)

OVERALL OPINION

1 year of use and not to sell prs
Fair price

Marshall 100watt with a lamp in the preamp is in the rest transistor.
It 100watt do as I stated above.
Settings: there are settings for the clean and overdrive (there's only one for both a shame.) And setting of each effect:
for clean and overdrive are: gain, volume, bass, midle, treble.
for effects there is a knob to select the effect, the other to adjust.
effects reverb, flange, delay, chorus etc ... (About 16 I think)

UTILIZATION

Even if you're used to a much smaller amp before with fewer adjustments etc. ... sen is very easy out.
yes good sound is very simple to optenir, it also depends on the style play.
the manual I do not read is not even open (it's not that I do in it he explains the precote taken with a light amplifier)

SOUNDS

Is it your style of music? I play different style enormously to progress I play as well as funk ska punk etc. ... it is very Polivalente.
My guitar is a bass line is going to say but I get a sound that I find okay with this amp, I do not deffet those of his amp emplement sufisent.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about a me now.
Or the price I had is it More than a case (I do not siterais)

12AX7 preamp in, onboard multi-effects ... It's solid manufacturing Marshallian it's tough. Heavy is still a bit!

UTILIZATION

Simple and effective is a marshall: you turn it sounds.

SOUNDS

The downside is the small.

I have a Marshall VS100 in mind. The guys in my group have one or AVT100 of my post and also I think a VS 50w he says. I also tried a 80w vs. Assé regularly so I connai the amp.

Overall I noticed immediately that the sounds I like the AVT significantly less than VS. The old version has a warmth, a thickness that the AVT does not.

THE CRUNCH.
I find it just always bad. We feel that the sound is the same as the distortion and c is simply the gain down. ca overflows there is not "square" I look for in a crunch.

THE DISTO.
I think that like it or not. but frankly it is less warm and round as the VS. ca crachouillent more it overflows a little. It sounds so to speak as the 2000s and current groups. Assé is powerful and trashy like a marshall but the accuracy is relative to the distortion.

In addition we regret bitterly the abscence of the magic button "contour" which was present in the AVT and dramatically alter the sound.
we went from a big rock sound. The presence knob that replaces ets too innefficace I find the sound to change practice. Fortunately that there are the "scoop" (if I m not abuse) that cuts the medium but these still are not as insufficsant adjustable ...

THE multi effects.

The effects do their job. ca troubleshoots serious! the sound is good without being harsh environment but are very pratik accessiblent because at any moment.
Only the flanger is bad, but the reverb! Mamamia big fan of the reverb as I broke a profondeuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuur s!

OVERALL OPINION

My overall opinion is that it is the marshall, it sounds, there is something to laugh for hours!

But around the time the sound of fondementales Lampl: the distortion is lost as heat in thickness and that's a shame becaufe remi nine: one equipped with a multi-effect VS: It will do serious!

So if you are already equipped with a multi purpose: take a VS. if you have the means to take a 2 VS.

Marshall 100watt with a lamp in the preamp is in the rest transistor.
It 100watt do as I stated above.
Settings: there are settings for the clean and overdrive (there's only one for both a shame.) And setting of each effect:
for clean and overdrive are: gain, volume, bass, midle, treble.
for effects there is a knob to select the effect, the other to adjust.
effects reverb, flange, delay, chorus etc ... (About 16 I think)

UTILIZATION

It is easy to adjust an amp, one rule of the equa clean, the equation of both OD and we chose an effect on the rule and basta nothing too serious.

the manual is screwed, is preset to become familiar with the bug is easily obtained Exploitatie sound.

SOUNDS

Well then we should discuss this amp I had two years so I know what I mean.

The clean is not too bad, with a little reverb and pushed her a certain threshold 3 / 10 it's funny (not chui specialist clean at the same time)

The distortion of an od has less gainq hether OD2, the OD1 is warmer than the OD2 and is more prcis.
OD2 because it's a bit of boiled without fishing is finally nothing real bad at all.

HP was a celestion standart reminds me more of the model but nothing whopping.
The baffle is chipboard top I did not believe either.

Finally, it's not the amp of the century, marshall regresses when even a little.

The effects are quite simpa not be pro, is a ribanbelle reverb, flanger I loved her well, however.

This amp suits any style, but hey there surment the best amp that has the same price.

OVERALL OPINION

I possd two years, what I liked most is the 16 onboard effects has pleased me two days APRS and failed to say the least possibility is This distortion without sin and I started drooling six months has captured it sucks.

Aps I remake this choice over time, as this money put into a combo while OCCAZ lamp because it's not top at all but it's still a tad better than any series transistor.

Amp Hybrid: Prampli lamp and transistor hp
100 watts RMS
3 channels: clean - OverDrive OverDrive 2 1
Tri-band EQ for the clean and OD for 2 and volume and gain
Presence knob, 2 scoop to dig the medium to OD and bright to make the sound brighter in the clear. 16 Indeed, many of reverb Different. External effects loop.

UTILIZATION

The configuration is very simple and intuitive. Adjustments are not normally prs except master volume, which tends not to be a truly progressive (between 0 and 1's quiet enough to play in his room then came 2 the sound is much louder, but increases more low up to 5)
The effects are not too hard to take in hand but sometimes a little hard getting the right.
The manual is short, simple and clear. It's useful for some controls and take prcautions amps lamp.

SOUNDS

The sounds are trs balance for the guitar I have (a small vantage 113t for beginners). I pass a small 15 watt transistor and I must say that I feel the diffrence The definition for sound. The clean channel dlivre plutt a clear round. The OD1 channel gives a crunch plutt INTERESTED. The RSID blem in the OD2 channel: do not expect the heavy distortion is a saturation in the colors just a little marshalienne particulire diffrent and other loadings. We like it or not. Personally I like but I was even a distortion pedals to get other sounds.

OVERALL OPINION

Overall this amp is fulfilling its task, that of giving the warm lights (even if one is away from any lamps) with the price and the colors of a transistor amplifier.
I use it for a little less than a year. I have not tried other models before acqurir because it's my first of what you bought ... as a. (But now I have to pay it back: p)
It is a powerful amplu with sound correct. I had little opportunity trs served and I must say that qualitprix level is good.
I do not know if I would do this choice because even though I would still have a small all-tube ^ ^

Hybrid 100w amp.
Hp 12-inch
-A 12AX7 tube preamp so
-3 Chanaux (clean / overdrive lightweight / heavy overdrive)
-Equalizer
-1 Multi effect rather simplistic.
-24 Kg: p

UTILIZATION

The amp is very simple to use, the foot switch lets you juggle easily on 3 Chanal, and enable the multi purpose. It is very easy to use, as relatively thin (but hey, the gig included multi effect that is not what I expect from a personal amplifier).
The qualiseur is effective, the gain of the clean channel is really fabulous.

SOUNDS

Personally, I have a weakness for marshall sounds.
The sound is really very warm for a hybrid. We are far from snapping sound fender. The clean channel is beautiful, the gain pushed the sound is incredibly light mimics. The overdrive channel 1 is nice, but I still prefer the sound of a good PDAL (like tube screamer), the overdrive channel 2 is much more complete, a bluesy sound to his really very heavy (thanks to the button scoop digging mediums), to saturation more heavy metal. The sound is still very hot crmeux.
The multi effect is small but the sound effects of a quality bluffing, the chorus goes far beyond those I have obtained on various multi effects boss and korg.
Person I only use the clean channel with gain at 3 / 4. + A distortion pedal. It rammone = severe)

OVERALL OPINION

After 2 years of use, I am satisfied. A home in the cafés concerts and repeating. Powerful and ergonomic. Soon be a bit pricey always of the same.

Amp hybrid with a lamp and Marshall ECC83 is heard well in the saturation (which I changed because the marshall of some concern) that have nothing to do with the MG series. This is 100 watt marshall, but its volume is not very high (like what the transistor). The connection is very simple, on the facade for the guitar input and a headphone jack on the back, out with an HP emulation and effects loop adjustable -10 / +4 dBV is used as a multi-effect pedals or pedals .
It has 3 channels. Clean with a gain-volume-3-band eq, a crunch and distortion with separate gain and volume but even equalizer. After you have the master volume and presence and the volume for the effects loop and the effects built into the amp (16) adjustable by 2 buttons: volume and intensity / frequency (depending on whether a reverb or delay) .
Too bad the eq is the same for the crunch and distortion ...

UTILIZATION

Simple configuration with three channels and effects loop is sometimes bad the crunch ale the same as the distortion EQ, when you love to have separate sounds good but ...
As soon as you plug your guitar sound direct you typed Marshall, a rather warm crunch but still a bit sharp (transistor must not be forgotten either), a clean but fairly neutral going well, although a dense ideal disto rock / hard rock. It is closed and it brings what to the low 2 * 12 but is welcome nonetheless.
The manual is simple but have everything, including settings to find the amp.

SOUNDS

Scoop has a button on the crunch and distortion will dig up the mids and low to obtain a sound neo (neo neo punk metal all that ...) On the distortion we understand why, on a little crunch less. There is a touch bright on the clean channel, this key for acute boosts a more crystalline, useful when using dual microphones. Is obtained quickly sounds very acceptable with all the modes, it is a very versatile amp, although it remains very focused on the rock.
I will put some minor drawbacks though. It is a hybrid Amli so do not expect a sound with all lights but the saturation is much prettier than that of MG, for example. The crunch lacks some serious compared to the other two channels, but rather by anecdotal against the Scoop switch on the distortion makes the highs a little too garish in my opinion, but it is still useful because otherwise the distortion would be typed and oldschool very medium for me. I opted to put me an EQ in the loop and from the nickel stamp is by making compromises with all the different EQ.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for over 4 years and it disappoints me a little now, but that's because I want to light and because I make music in a really intense, unlike when I l I bought it or just to play in my high school rock band. I love the fact that there have three channels, now I could not play without for sure. I try MG100 before and frankly even if there is only one lamp in the AVT is simply saving it as a distos mg (transistor) are very dirty and cracked all over, then c ' mastered is much, much prettier. It is midway between lamp and transistor and I had to wait 3 years of practice to begin to get tired of his side transistor, so it goes. Especially when you see me do the mouth in front of big heads all lamps that are worth three times the price of this combo ... I have become particularly demanding ...
Otherwise the fact that the distortion "scoopée" is weaker than the crunch is a bit boring because you end up quickly with the distortion to the crunch 10 to 6 and 5 to clean so we spent a little time to the balance between the channels and the master, but when we used to, I put any more time than anyone else with a multichannel amp. I got it for just under € 700 five years ago (and it was almost nine out that's why I paid a little expensive), in the same situation, at the same time, I probably do it again the same choice, but now my budget and my requirements have changed.
