All user reviews of 4/5 for the Marshall MG100DFX

Transistor amplifier 100 watts.
Two channels: a clean (or crunches) and overdrive (or saturated).
3bandes EQ for each channel.
Triggerable by footswitch.
This amp allows the addition of effects (chorus / delay, delay, chorus, and flanger).
Plus a digital reverb.
Effects loop with control output.
Manuel French, English, Japanese, German.

UTILIZATION

It is like many amps
(I have worked one year in a music magazine that is often the same)
It turns the pots and quickly found its sound ...
It is sure we find them quickly but not necessarily good ...
The manual is clear, it gives one or two boards of adjustment,
but right after that is personal ...

SOUNDS

As I'm pretty versatile
is necessarily a style of music for which this amp should ...
To grunge it goes a lot (lol) or overdrive
not too pushed that is nice ...
As I said before I am (see over) versatile
So some stuff for each style and I play all
no exeptions, so the guitars used, there are a few ...
(I mean fender, gibson, gretsch ...)
But if I give my opinion on an amp I put no more effect,
n or no interest ...
So without making comparisons with other amplifiers or other brands,
J 'gives an opinion that remains personal.
So for the clear sound that is quite without much bass.
The crunch is not bad without much gain.
The overdrive (the best effect of the amp in my opinion) good for
styles a little bluesy.
The distortion is a bit too "gritty" is imprecise.

The effect is not great but good
if you buy an amp for delay or chorus,
there is a problem.
The reverb is totally cave.

So good for blues, jazz (his second), quiet rock, for soloists and small distortion.

OVERALL OPINION

I do not Posed, but I have tested several times
in store.
What I like the overdrive, the one I like not the reverb.
I tried a bunch of models ...
at the beginning if I remember correctly Marshall wanted € 450,
which is expensive for what that is ...
But due to baissémaintenant, and then should never buy new.
I do not buy it for € 450 here that is safe but hey,
if you find a lower price why not ...
But that is a model in which Marshall is one of the most
affordable.
And then there are in the same series of models and therefore less powerful
less ...

Transistors with 100 W amplifier technology FDD (supposed to simulate the effect of lamps)
Headphone and speaker emulation
Both channels: a Clean / Crunch and Overdrive1/Overdrive2
Four onboard effects: Delay, Chorus, Flanger anda separate reverb
Comes with a footswitch to change channels and to activate the effects
Two equalizers: A bass / med / treble / gain for the first channel
A bass / mid / treble / presence / volume for the second

UTILIZATION

Operation is very simple.
Quickly found a sound.
The effectiveness of the knobs is not very linear but hey, it's still the marshall
The manual is in French but it is not very useful to read, except maybe for beginners

SOUNDS

For the price (I bought € 550 a year ago and a half) is not bad but not terrible either.

The sound is pretty clean and clear lens, but it lacks bass. On my Ibanez SA with simple microphones, we get a get a good clear sound pretty funky while the humbucker gives sounds more incisive and cold. Compared to another marshall tube that I tried, I find the clean sound rather well

The channel is divided into Duex saturated overdrive. Advantage for lovers of Marshall, we come to have a grain that feels the marshall. The first channel gives small enough crunchy pretty saturated (type AC / DC)
The second channel grows in saturation. And there is the drama, once you crunch the dépaase just muscled it is entitled to puree little audible. This amp is therefore whether we remain in a Zoen pop / light rock / blues but no more. (If there are fools who come to play metallica on it without pedals I want to see)
I put a 5, because there are much better as well qd amp.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year and a half.
There is no wrong in concert
Power is sufficient and it is very robust
The price / quality ratio is pretty decent
This is my first amp and with hindsight I think I made a good choice.
He never let me down in reliability
FDD technology provides more compared to other amp transistors.

A good transistor amp strong enough to 100W with a lot of effects (chorus, flanger, reverb, delay, tube emulation).

UTILIZATION

It is easy to use supra. Like all Marshall: little low (a drawback for me) and a lot of mediums.
The manual is useless.

SOUNDS

In clean, the sound is very good: no complaints.
The chorus is pretty nice.
We arrive at the weak point: the distos. Once you push the button on the gain too high (above the quarter-turn), it was a dirty sound with no sustain.
ATTENTION! YOU WILL NEVER SOUND MARSHALL WITH THIS AMP!!
The simulation does not simulate lamps lamps: it boosts the sound!
So to make the distortion with this amp, he must add a pedal! Indeed it is a very good amp with a pedal on the clean channel more!
So I use the distos the amp to make nice little crunch.
In addition, the pre-amp is bad enough: we do not see much difference by turning the knobs. It is sorely lacking in bass!!

OVERALL OPINION

WARNING: THIS AMP IS NOT BAD! These are simply the DISTOS that are bad!
So if you want Marshall sound, buy a tube amp!
I do not regret my choice too, I have what it takes as pedal behind. I can tell you it is spits great amp! He potato!

100w transistor with a 12 hp Celestion.Suufisant RPET to play with a drummer nag
from: jack (heuresement!), player and headphones on the front
on the rear: input and output effect, supply and footswitch (supplied)
we have two channels: 1: clear and crunch
2: OD1 and OD2
With a per channel EQUAL
SERIES effects: delay / chorus, chorus, delay, flanger
Reverb
I found her rather pretty CHARACTERISTICS

UTILIZATION

Frankly it's simple, we understand all at once without having to read the manual.
APRS is put by against a little time to find the sound that it should be.

SOUNDS

I play mostly rock, mtal (with an influence to Metallica)
I play on a ltd m100 mtal of nickel and a mxr distortion of M151
Time to sound: the top is really not clean, it's heavy, not great tuft what.
the crunch it goes to play AC / DC is terrible
the distal one sounds good, not much saturated ca, perfect for riffs too lours
The distortion in the first two dmnage first! But as we move from tps has cost more than we can see this amp qq default:
THE FIRST and most Chianti is that distortion in 2, when an agreement on the plate motion.
ca plain fact: AAAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAAAA.on not happen to have a crisp most of the time! even with a good scratch grants.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 6 months
it is solid as we lug around everywhere without casse.Mais sounds are pretty bad.
It's been 7 years played the guitar and I'm dcu. (yes I sai I have not much budget ...)
report quality price is right on the other hand: I had the 322 in my brouzoufs prfr mag.
in short it is for beginners wishing to have sound and power on.
and then for people like me who do not have much money.
with the exprience I will not repeat that choice but look pluto the cot of their peavey tube amps was 500euros.

Transistors with 100 watt lamp circuit simulation. effects bases included (reverb, delay, chorus, flanger)

Sound: Here is an example with a guitar LAG RX100. Alesis reverb is a microverb3 (not that of the amp).
rhythmic base: clear channel's crunchy. Solo Distortion channel with gain all the way!

https://fr.audiofanzine.com/produits/index, ProductID, 90638.html

UTILIZATION

The manual is useless. cest "as usual"!
we get easily a good sound? the killer question! It depends on the desired! Marshall provides a sound a little dirty, but rock!
the neo-metal fans will not be satisfied but the "old hands" of the rock will be in heaven. The simulator "lights" blew me away!
I felt to find myself connected to a head in 2203 (with watts and less anyway)! As the time!

SOUNDS

In my opinion: It reminds me of a really heads 2203. The distortion is not made of the most powerful. The sound is typical marshall as we love to hear it.
For AC: it's a great marshall!
The problem: The fan! it is very noisy (hard to record, must increase the watts so as not to hear the blow!). Besides ... after 15 days of use it has "seized"

OVERALL OPINION

Almost a year of daily use. Marshall is one for sure (I recognized him!). Its typical Marshall with the possibility of having low volume thanks to the simulation lamp.
The effects are very good, good obviously it is not possible to set the time to 50 ms but precisely for a basic use is more than enough!
Apart from a little fan that spoils all, I am satisfied.
I use it every day, I tried almost all the amps that were in the store selling ds and nothing to do ... It was him!
That's .... a 2203 transistor!

Transistor amplifier etc ...

UTILIZATION

Configuration very simple and yet I am not endow it
gives a sound a bit like looking at anything that I think is sound? lol
a superb manual page or half English half french j learns nothing except that we should not play in the water lol

SOUNDS

For my style acoustic ballad al al a slightly distorted electric blues rock with a full heavy bass distortion like metallica black album

effects but not always integrate as the top non-disconnectable reverb foot but they are good with this so we will not pleindre.

I can find some personal one distortion pedal after my rotten metal thing so I find a good day an adjustable distortion heavy metal slow after playing just be fussy to be yeah not always very "harmonic" a little stuffy, but I adore me. .

OVERALL OPINION

For 6 six months with me a good amp I trimballe tjr even if c is heavy but good 100w ..

amp Lampre etc ok just not be the same but it's not rsique case or that sort of thing is a perfect companion kan seeing the part with her and spend a little 30w big sound without this place has to beg for food all the rest of the month ...

a top value for money
I advice to amateur after the psecialiste sound professional anyway c is vot thing.

a cheerful friend who will follow me for some time and which delivers sound that what he is asked.

100W transistor amp system with SDS (sort of amp modeling lights ... basically adds a power and a brown blowing distortion, but nothing mchant ...).

A small multi-purpose use is very simple Intgr delay, chorus / delay, chorus and flanger) ... possibility to activate the liver and one to activate it. disable the foot thanks to footswich provides ...

This is an amp 2 channels, with many more buttons for channel distortion and also a small button OD / OD to switch between overdrive and distortion ...

And finally the clean channel has a crunch channel ...

UTILIZATION

It really ets trs simple to use ... naturellemnt is not a JCM 2000, but in the early years it is really good ... trs trs as and when they do spend time crying over his guitar, it refines rglages and we finally found his sound ... Regarding the manual I had to make use of one of my MG 15 DFX since it provides the n'tait not in its box (bought new yet) ...

SOUNDS

It is done all the style that I practice (for the better now than gunsN 'Roses or AC / DC Marshall: P) although again, it is not great even though I find his dasn price range he dfend trs trs though (for rock / hard rock). I play a Fender Jag dessu-stang, a PRS Tremonti SE and a Gibson Les Paul Standard ... e I come with detailed three have roughly the sound that suits me ... I like the crunch channel distortion but ho hum ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year and a half and it suits me for what I do (concerts occasional lack of time), it is very simple to use once one has bothered to turn a bit all buttons ^ ^ the effects are of rather good quality I just regret that we can not choose OD1 / OD2 on foot swith but it's a good dtail ...

I have several other amps ssay a peavey bandit 112 or a Fender FM 212 R and it is trs trs trs far the one that suited me better now ... the fender is better now in the clear (as usual, but it's not a distortion at all) and what is the peavey ... rather rough and clear sound makes me think of a more crunch that a real clear sound, in short I think it's the best in its price range ... o the era I bought it was worth 550 euros, I got 450 and I must say I think it's worth ...

I do not know if I would do this choice, condition biensur to have a larger budget, in this case while staying at Marshall I will turn to a TSL 602 TSL 100 or even a ... but with the same budget I rprendrais hsitation the same without ... Long live the MG SERIES: p! (Perfect to play alone or with a group of conditions not play too too too much either ... the sound quickly becomes "dirty" pushed too hard ...)

Look at the other opinion.

UTILIZATION

Easy to set up, in addition to the French manual is there to facilitate that.
It happens easily asses to get a good clear sound in any case with my guitar, an Ibanez AXS 32 Seymour Duncan JB model.
For distortion and well jy back down because this is the major weakness of the amp so I do not use it or very little.

SOUNDS

You really have to seek to play a particular style, very versatile amp, plain, as disto .... not just hours.
The distortion, c j is why I bought this amp and although I have done well ... you would have understood. C degeu, he released the HP one species of miasma sonor unbearable in OD2 OD1 in c is better but not exellent either, disto not very precise. The crunch is correct
tjs good but the same problem as for the overdrive.
the effects are of good quality
One option is used to simulate any amp lamp, and c is what is written in the manual because it's just the boost.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been three weeks and I use the I'm very disappointed with the distortion, and quickly solved the problem by adding a distortion pedal in, and then the amp is good, but since I do not buy is the € 350 in addition to fuck with a pedal but for use only ...
J There will can be a bit much, but c is mainly because of the deception objective, c is a very good amp if you use the plain but becomes a means for the distortion unless you have a pedal so I aim to stay put him a small 8

Marshall while transistor
100 watts
Integrated effects: chorus delay flanger, distortion
medium and low acute SETTINGS =)
check out the official site marshall because I am lazy
8 for all features

UTILIZATION

Tapuya button to alum, we must avoid putting it in the fleet, ect ... not to play too hard ... ect
is a fan that makes a little buit at first, but rolls ca, ca fate puree

SOUNDS

In so cool points and points - cool

effects ..... of shit in a box .... I have a pedal effect boss put a foot so I f ** men !!!!!
the distortion is a bit better now but still! I have my pedals I f **

Then there is a amp simulation, I always play with the sound is not bad!
an amplifier for me what is it, amp: common name: -----> amplifier for power .... is to send the sauce !!!!!!!! banzai! Deep Purple have better watch out! (In rock and it's all made in japan!)

9 because it's the racket and it works well!

a lot also its floydien

OVERALL OPINION

Next time, my music will evolve .... I turn towards the blues ect amps, jazz ....

Fill in you this: it's an amp to send the sauce (but how have done so have already sent a puree!)

value for money quite a lot!

ca not worth a light tt the same, but you need to know to play well and have the dosh!

See other view, everything has been said. 9, the only weak point is the clean and crunch on the same channel.

UTILIZATION

Config-simplistic, less than nothing to dip amps, it was not to break the head, even beginners.

-Weakness, as I will repeat often, the overdrive and clean are capricious, we must look for long. As against the saturation is cool.

-The manual is very short and is available on the website of Marshall, he gives some good tips to get started. We present a few settings that can help us to give us a track to sound acceptable.

8, the difficulty to find a good overdrive too frustrated me ...

SOUNDS

-I play metal, so I use a lot OD2 channel with gain at 3 / 4 in the carpet or if I want to sound super heavy rhythm, and clean when I practice my exercises blues and jazz my teacher gives me.

"I use an Ibanez SA260FM in clean and overdrive (but I find it difficult to love my overdrive) and a Peavey Rotor EXP (the explorer-like with a floyd rose bridge).

-It happens quite quickly to an acceptable sound by playing a little on the set aside its saturated. However, in overdrive and crunch, it's pretty hardcore, the sound is always too high or too low, too closed or too garish. It takes a long time to find a good sound, and there's a difference between a so huge clean and crunch that you really have to remember its previous settings if you want to waste time going to the crunch. The clean, I think it sounds good, but I must admit I like the sound in general that my Ibanez SA260FM can give me with my microphone to handle clean, very useful for more tips and jazzy blues.

-In short, I like the extreme saturation with which we can all do solos with highs in the background or the rhythm very low, and clean, with good microphones on the guitar. The crunch, I recommend it, and the overdrive is capricious, it is difficult to get a good sound (it is a personal opinion). Unfortunately, I give a 7 for the impossibility of crunch, and the capricious side of the OD1 and clean, although I love the heavy distortion, for a transistor ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 year.
"I likes the amp as such, except that it gave me some problems when I started.
"I tried a few models (2-4) in the small shop where I bought my equipment.
-Not too bad, but for an amp that is supposed to be great for the overdrive, I'm a little disappointed in that direction. Good thing I play metal ...

A 8, given that I use, I can not complain too much of overdrive and crunch, I use a lot less, anyway. Although I was not displeased to have a good overdrive, my Ibanez is made for that.

Everything is said!

UTILIZATION

- The configuration is it simple?
It's a Marshall, so classic, I think it's pretty simple to use!
- Gets it easy to sound good?
The sound is good, really nice, no crackling, just a small fan that starts up at boot but it takes a few seconds, nothing embarrassing!
June 28, 2009 Edit: I use it for some time as a group before, I played a lot of headphones ... but this is the cat, it blows, it sizzles and with experience ... Finally, difficult to gain with this amp ...
- The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
I did used to plug in my headphones ...

Edit on 2/13/09: Finally, some settings are difficult to find and understand when you do not know it and the manual is not really understandable for a novice ... thank you internet. I just bought a hassle to pedal and I put it in the effect loop of the amp but simple once you understand ... Also, with the use of a pedal, the settings become less obvious, but this is due to a lack of experience and not Marshall! I lowered my rating to 7 / 10 (instead of 9)

SOUNDS

- Will it fit your style of music?
We always want more ... but it is perfect, at least I play alone at home, with headphones and it suits me perfectly!
June 28, 2009 Edit: like I just said above ... the headphone is good, but suddenly, as if that's headphone ... should not take as many Watt ...
- With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) do you play?
Ibanez GRX with a 40 and sometimes an old Colorado home ECR30 Jim Harley. I hope soon to add a loop station!
- What kind of sound you get and with what settings ("crystalline", "bold ",....)?
For some months I use it I spend more time playing than trying all kinds of settings, it is enough to make for an amateur!
June 28, 2009 Edit: like I said at the time, what to do there, especially when you want to look for a good sound ... can spend time there. Ultimately, there are sounds correct ... The modulation effects are cool ... but I'll buy some pedals for more than just fun!

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it?
Since April 2008 ...
- What is so special that you like most and least?
Edit June 28, 2009: The only one I see now is that it's a Marshall! Cons: souflerie, crackles (even clean), the distortion, the difficulty of finding good sound ...
- Have you tried many other models before buying it?
I had a chance! I tried an electric guitar at the time and the amp was also for sale ... No, I have not tried other!
- How would you rate the quality / price?
I had an Ibanez and Marshall for 410 euros, I felt that it was more than correct (amp still under warranty at the time of purchase)
- With experience, you do again this choice? ...

Edit June 28, 2009: If I had to buy new, no. I'll try anyway some amps before ... and my choice will certainly bring a different amp.

I put 6 as noted, although apparently, the site prevents me from changing my notes ...

Marshall 100 watt transistor amp
2 channels with a 3-Band EQ per channel
effects processor built in activabl footwitch
Digital reverb
fdd a simulation circuit lamps
effects loop emulation output or headphone hp
line in
For the price not bad

UTILIZATION

The config is very simple not need a manual is obtained her satisfaisan Assé quickly.
Although the fate hp too many acute FDD, even without being pushed from its volume can become very quickly but not deafening and my irémédiable duncan humbucker has to be something for the effects are absolutely useless on stage they are really awful gadjet useless but above all to play the guitar you buy is not a reverb ampli.La footswichtable and volume would have been welcome on the clean channel.

SOUNDS

This amp is perfect for playing punk, rock, etc ...
I play with a Squier Stratocaster. I invested in a korg AX3000G effects are very well made. The overdrive is perfect for my style without being exceptionel she will enjoy a very dirty hand I find the bass are really made this amp as opposed to acute. The clean is not too bad, it is ideal for integrated amp simulations or other effects even naturally it makes you something to be proud. I put ten because this amp is worth the cost to be heard. After one likes or dislikes. But it is far from crap.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for just over six months. I speak of course for the price to 350 euro you use a reliable amp on stage contrary to what some seem to say it on the volume with the sound system and return you anyway no need to worry half sufira much for doing it myself several times. It is a perfect amp for those who want to start on stage to buy better.

transistor, 100 whats
loop efect
internal effect
"Tube emulation"

UTILIZATION

AC branch and miracle plays music (well noise and after that depends on zicos)

SOUNDS

good for beginners, after that it will never be worth a lamp, it's still a way amplifiers,
we are very far from the true Marshall sound, but it's already good from analog (except effect) so good
AC is still a respect can the sound of the guitar, the report's money, is honest.

OVERALL OPINION

I is for 6 months, that price is correct, after if we can have is top of occasion, it avoids the stress of caprice and tube amp (you can wear it as a Bourin even hot, it might not).
but do not buy it without trying it, do not hesitate to push it a bit. For that price is not bad, but if you do not try it power, Marshall was released on a class 5 which is near the same price and it's all light except that AC is 5 whats good.
