MGR/KHH « Marshall AVT100 »
Published on 01/20/03 at 15:00I 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!!!
