«  I have a Marshall! A good? »

Published on 02/25/11 at 15:56
2W amp pocket transistor with a guitar input, volume, tone, selector hors-tension/clean/Overdrive and headphone (6.3 mm).
He sticks a 9V battery in the ass and can play a very reasonable time rather (autonomy can really win a trip).

UTILIZATION

No need to book from the moment we know that this object is primarily used for connecting an electric guitar to amplify the signal.
Considering the simplicity, you'll need 10 minutes or less to go around the possibilities and give you a notice before buying.

SOUNDS

Mode "Clean" does not deserve its name: it must turn the volume to mask the sound of the guitar body itself and we arrive quickly at a CRUCH not very accurate but very round: the knob tone is very effective with this mode and provides a good range of different sounds.

If you prefer the overdrive you will be served: the user "Overdrive" spits, surprisingly given the size of the box and displayed 2W. This time it's really very, very bold, but we manage to qualify by playing with the knobs on the guitar and the tone.

The lack of adjustment of the "drive" is actually not a big problem: this amp is not designed to do in the precision and it still hurt to possibilities of sound, especially playing on the pitch (that even bluffing).

OVERALL OPINION

I think the sound quality compared to the a priori one might have overlooked a small plastic box. on the other hand, is it worth its price? I confess that I find it hard to make me an opinion on that. Chances are that we do pay Marshall the display of its logo ...

I still have to put a big damper on the quality of design: I'm dropping slightly the headphone jack (when I plug in a) if the speaker is not active, the knobs start to stick and crack (that said, I have already seen much worse on the amps yet more pretentious). It is also thought to pinch out flap that hides the battery under penalty hearing vibrate unpleasantly.

My brother did not look at the competition before offering it to me and I never played another amp of this caliber. But given the notice: I think I would see the side of Vox, Fender and Orange before the election again. However, I do not regret owning it because he can play anywhere (even while cooking ...) without the constraints that I have with my Peavey Classic 30.
