Marshall 5002 Lead 20

20w amp transistor, made in the 80s.

2 inputs (high and low), 3-band EQ, gain, volume, 1 line out / HP

No effect, no footswitch.

UTILIZATION

The simplicity of plug and play before time ..

The clean sound is not bad, pretty hot for a transistor rather bold.
Pushing the gain obtained a very good saturation style AC / DC, Led Zep, slash.

It is powerful, I sometimes took him to repeat when I have not the courage to move my body double JVM 410H + 1960A
It lacks a little low (it is a 10 HP), but it's still the job.

SOUNDS

It is made to rock.
To work at home it does it well.
I use it with Les Paul (the grain is excellent with Seymour Duncan Alnico II Slash)

OVERALL OPINION

it's been 20 years that I have, in small extra amp.
I've never specifically provided, so I can ensure that it is indestructible!
Its power, grain and light weight make it a good traveling companion.

I have no idea of ​​the price, it had given me.
I do not separate, it has already given me many services. I always take with me in concert in case my head JVM has a problem. I know it, it will work. Besides, I had the opportunity to do a concert with him in a bar of 100 people without being transplanted it perfectly fits the bill!

The only downside is the single channel. to go from clean to saturated you have to turn the gain manually, or play with the guitar volume. A habit ...

In short, if you come across one, try it, you will be surprised!

same as for the previous opinion I had bought for the name and for transport, the 20 watt transistor, used to play in a small group (guitar, bass, drums singer) by elevating the ground (caf conc by expl ). sound, which is the transistor but high volume is downright stunning, even in clean, a fenderien its very well done there I was playing purple rain for the girls and that it was a sacred feedback has also . he is 87 and I believe that the quality is so well, there is more and I keep ...

SOUNDS

with a strat and les paul, its a bit cold at the base he needs volume
