Well I think those who do not like this amp is a mental block because it is not light and it is well worth some peavey valking lamps or low-end sounds hollow without mediums that are impossible to show a mix
If we do not grow in depth this little MG 100, it sounds great with the real Marshall. If there is need to use it in a large room, well just use the output with HP emulation and sound back in and it does it well.
Very easy to add sound and shows a very good front mix.En all those I had heard the sound and sound systems.
So if you want the sound of AC DC, Guns and Led Zep without an amp and 30 kg Unson volume acceptable, and without the constraints of fragility of the lamps, if you can not afford to offer you a any new lamp (used often requires the Retube) is the amp for you.
Now if you still want to improve it, a pedal blackstar tube and there before we enter filling or crunch sounds very good. The coupling Blackstar / MG 100 is great.
I put 9 for the value of his / price. A JVM or a vintage / modern lamp that I also just tried sound better, in fact more dynamic and able to push the amp but it is 4 times as much.
OVERALL OPINION
This amp it should be used as amplifier transistor, that is, to a reasonable size (though it can play in bars without transplanting) otherwise the output back through the HP emulation very well done. That's the limit of transistor amps, just knowledge and not push back, unlike any lamp.
I have two Fender all-tube, more suited to blues, and I have owned several Marshall (JCM 800 and JTM 60)
But I wonder if I'm not going to end up offering me one of those little MG 100 for a more rock. For 300 euros is a bargain to advise any guitarist beginner, see confirmed as the second amp.
we discussed the other day with my teacher scratching, professional guitarist who has over 30 years of guitar behind him, we agree.See less00RiseAgainst

The saturation is at the top with my guitar (Ibanez s520ex hh: p) that said, I had the opportunity to try a guitar with low end, c'tait diffrent fully with the distortion in odd2 gain a background it was like with an acoustic guitar xD ... it is to say that the sound varies with the guitars.
If not for the power ... Nothing to say! I never Exceeds 1 / 4 in RPTES with our drummer who types like crazy ^ ^ I have to say and live less than half. This amp possde a big Reserved (in overdrive channel).
Do not try to put it in the bottom channel ODD2, personal essay I've ever I want my ears too!
If you miss the worst of power, you can re-balance the sound on your sound system via the output jack on the amp.
For the history fan, I think it is worth mentioning that as a problem because the noise is low and when you start playing, it's even less a problem.
This is the amp for you if you play your rock (all genres) except mtal dull and heavy, or you need to adjust pedals an effect, however, the channel with the gain ODD2 max can do the job and your solo is hell.
I would recommend this amp for particulirement scratch ® religion to play in a band, will be a shame to take and put a 100W all the way down to his room to make his lines ...
I will give 9 / 10 has this amp too much for the 100W, practical and Aesthetics!See less00jessus

SOUNDS
It is a fairly versatile amp, I play the mtal group so it follows in terms of power but the gain is low trs, is a nice crunch and overdrive, but the followers of nags, consider plugging a stomp box.
For blues and jazz, the sound is warm and trs trs enjoyable, I play it with several guitars and even a sitar.
The FDD circuit is made, a simulation lamp. Trsrussite and I find it sort of the clitoris of the amp to not be vulgar, but it is THE FIRST thing that came to mind during my first test.
The effects are basic but the delay is enjoyable, though the switch only allows to use the effect to which the knob is turned.
There is a reverb that is not controllable by the malheureusemnt switch either.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a little over a year and I bought it new in store.
I do not think I have a Marshall 400Euros but vieu behringer.
I try many model as vox, fender, behringer but hey I do not know, Marshall is the amp you see any post them in your room ... What a legends.
I sound much more especially the FDD. Marshall is the only team in the march of his amps jewelry. We are not in the spce of the simulation line 6 that smells printed circuit full nose, it's not the lamp, but comes close.
Quality levels is a good purchase price, particularly if one seeks an amp that potato and is versatile.

SOUNDS
This amp, remember it, is NOT an all-tube amp, which means it does not sound mythical forcment marshall. Nanmoins, it has excellent sound, and for any transistor amplifier, there is no above. All those who say that this amp has a sound of m * rde, show of snobbery, because it is a marshall, and said tube amplifier marshall said.
Pass this rant, I can give an objective opinion on the sound of this amp ...
The sound is quite bright in the clear (if you know the rgler), and many fat overdrive. The sound is clear nanmoins not his strong point (if you want an amp with a great clear sound, in the same price range, you had to turn to a FM212R). The crunch on the clean channel is much too strong compared to its clean.
The FDD is a simulation of the strengths of this amp: the sound is much warmer and less like a transistor sound (it itch all-tube amps largely low-end).
I use a telecaster (mounts with two humbucker seymour SH1/SH4), with a boss SD1 pedals for overdrive (when I took the time to leave, meaning you rarely, as the 'intgrea overdrive the amp is excellent dj).
I put 10 without hsiter (there are 8 or 9 that would because the sound is not as good as a marshall lamp, but this is not the same price)
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for a year. I tried a lot of other models, some in my budget, some not ... before acqurir (Peavey ValveKing 112, fender FM212R, blue 60dfx kettner hugues, hugues Kettner Attax 80 ...)
Most
- Price
- Sound (thanks in particular fdd)
- Finishing (marshall look, we like it or hate it, I love)
- The footswitch supplied with the amp purchase (unlike other amp in the same CATEGORY)
The -:
- The manual too poor
- The headphones: means very little when the gain is not lev.
- The crunch of the channel clear.
The price quality ratio is excellent, there is not above (I got a) in any transistor amplifier. With exprience, I would do this choice.See less00ben.J79

It is this latter type of sound, which can have problems if you push the volume too much.
But everything is really exploitable, this amp delivers on its promises, and it is to take 100 watts, far more "safe" that small range of MG, the more HP is a Celestion.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for two months. I possde other amplifiers, including amplifiers lamps. I bought this one for a powerful yet portable amp with no risk of the abmer I had previously tried and bought the Line 6 Spider III 75 watts, but when I cost the Marshall I got back to my Line 6 to make the MG 100 DFX.
Apart from a, I tried many other amps including "lights", but I do not believe t.
I tried also the small MG, but nothing do with the 100 watts in the range MG is that it must be taken to have something good, and it is because it ' is a "transo" 100 watts it is not playable low volume. No worries, we get a good report, whatever the volume.
I put around 10/10, as the price (less than 350 euros), I see no better, as it offers the grain "marshall" and that is what I was looking prcisment.

SOUNDS
DIFFERENT styles I play, I come as the sounds of Steve Vai, EVH, and of course Jimi Hendrix. I possde this amp for two months, for the time I did not use my effects pedals, I jou with the effects of the amp. I jou with my 3 guitars, mainly with my Fender Stratocaster.
I get all the sounds I want, because with this amp reproduces Fidler "noise footprint" of each of my guitars. I get all the clean sounds I want, no problem more or less crystalline, ditto for the crunch sounds. I am convinced by these trs sound, and although it is a transistor amp, hard to make the difference with my other amps lamps. I am surprised trs enjoyable, not too surprised when even, because if I took it in stores, it is evidence that the test sduit me.
The Overdrive Channel makes good, low volume means the volume is in difficulty if it is put trs high volume, you lose the precision However, a TRS is exploitable, the amp does not collapse.
In conclusion, I am satisfied with the sound. I put 10/10. But even when it's all good. I sduit by progrsraliss by amp transistors Contents of sound, it was the heat of a lamp amp.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for two months. Long enough to make a first report.
I prfre most: Although this is an amp transistors found the grain Marshall. I did not make a fortune in a head lamp because I possde two large amps dj lights. I bought this "transo" to be able to carry around easily.
I tried several before buying this MODELS Marshall.
A Line 6 Spider III / too much chemical, synthetic, not natural is to replace the Line 6 Marshall I took it, far more convincing.
DIFFERENT Vox "transo" sounds pretty good quality, but not the grain that I was looking for.
Small lamps amps, the same as Vox, sounds pretty good, but like the previous ones, not the sound I wanted.
I pay this amp at a price of 339 euros and this price, I think it's a good deal trs, the report qualitprix is simply excellent.
I do it again this choice, because this amp rpond totally what I want. Namely a portable amp, which gives me the sound I'm looking for. Really good.
339 euros for such feedback, it's cheap.

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)

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.See less10torros

The second problem is size ... more third independent channel! To choose a nickname crunch with claen, one or the other? The lead is average and the setting is simply an outline of medium boost to the left or right pad, nothing to do with the contour model, which shook the grain VSII modern genre or the genre expanded vintage.
The Hp is unknown to the battalion, they were on the VSII "Celestion gold back." Last, the box is closed and high-volume, one senses quickly that the carcasses can not bear not the energy generated cone, which generates low invasive and inaccurate.
To save money on everything for (presumably) to add an effect section (a fashion) ... I'm not sure everyone will enjoy.
OVERALL OPINION
I played on most major brands including numerical simulations, and the question I ask myself is:
why such a step backwards? A great brand like Marshall should not she use this success to offer at least equivalent quality to his previous series?
When I turn the VSII just after the MG ... I almost feel like playing on a full tube ... enough said.See less20iamqman

SOUNDS
The best thing you can do with an amp like this is throw it off the roof. If you don't have a roof try lighting it on fire. In all seriousness though the amp can get you a good practice or jamming tone. Don't try to go out and gig with this amp though because the sound man will laugh you right off the stage.
Use a good Gibson Les Paul with this amp or another guitar with a humbucker style pickup in it. You need that extra coil to try and tame some of the harsh frequencies inherent to this amp.
OVERALL OPINION
I would not recommend this amp to anyone. If you need a decent two channel amp then try a Peavey or a Roland cube. I know it doesn't say Marshall on the side of those amps but this my friends is not what a Marshall sounds like.
They do not make these amps anymore so you will have to go on the used market to scout one out. I have seen them a lot for under $200. Which isn't a bad price for an amp that has multi channels and effects. But the ridiculous wattage this thing has makes me wonder why you would need that loud of bad tone.See less00J-pab

Otherwise, the volume of the effects loop I dropped two years ago. Ideal for the effects of type of shit amp, not able to do anything.
SOUNDS
ABOVE ALL, but then MOSTLY. That prospective buyers do not read reviews of this amp incensing shit. They are liars. We can not do anything to this amp. I mainly use an LTD EC-500 EMG 81/60 rise, and no sounds except for the feedback and harmonics.
I play mostly metal, but also rock, funk, pop. It is absolutely despicable. The clean is super flat and cold, forced to put the reverb so that it goes a bit. The equalizer is laughable, it only serves to switch from "low shit" to "sharp shrill". In crunch / overdrive, it goes a little better anyway, but it's still very unclear and ugly. Once you start playing a little arpeggio stupid looking open-hand, it makes a big commotion and no one picks up nothing. Even amp Vikernes Nocturno Culto or sounds better than that.
The worst part of this amp, if you switch the channel "clean" to "overdrive", volume increases with death alone, about 50% less! I'm always on your ass even 2 years later.
My solution, it was just to put myself on the clean channel and use a MT-2 pedal for distortion. Ben to play riffs in the bass is really horrible but it's still better than overdrive, but important not to try to play a solo or anything. Another thing, the sound is different depending on where you stand. Ideal
OVERALL OPINION
It's been 3 years that I have, I bought a friend who stopped the guitar. I have not tried much, and good, I took it because I played a small 10W, it was barely a year since I played.
The pros: if you always played on a transistor amplifier 10W, if you are deaf, or if you are just stupid, you will love this MG100DFX
The -: value for money horrible, its disgusting at all levels, super heavy, unreliable.
With experience, I do not do it again this election, normal. I'm saving now to buy a head ENGL Powerball with a lil practice Mesa, finally pro gear ...
PS: Leaving to put 200 + € in an amp, because you're tired of your little 10W, a tip: if you do not do concerts, buy yourself a tube amp 5W or 10W. Otherwise, opt for a modeling amp. And if you want an amp transistor, avoid using the infamous shit, Marshall and avoid if you want to play metal.See less30klushfire

Above all, I precise that I do not scratch at all, I am most familiar with the world of amps sound / keyboard. So my opinion is probably relative. I know this amp as a member of one of my groups has bought one, so I brought unintentionally to compare it to other composers of my knowledge (various models: Peavey, Vox, Fender, Marshall, transistor , lamp) Config simple? Yes and no: it is an amplifier with gain and master volume, so far nothing very complicated. But the pots are not dials "classic", they are sensors, not very well managed in my opinion. So much so that when one goes from clean to crunch with the volume at a certain level, these levels change, as if one had moved along the Knob ... Example: clean gain with the mini, mini volume. Support to enter crunch: big sound instant, when we should have nothing, since we are the kids ... Same crunch to clean ... Do you get a good sound easy? That is the great defect that made me post this review because I believe it is unbearable not to mention "her" in the sense of artistic creativity but only "its" meaning "his own" no, we do can have a good sound with an amp that is a real factory blast! Turn the gain to the mini, mini volume, mount the master even if only 2: blast worthy of a radio not tuned! And beyond the half, the Storm! I know it's a 100watts, so there is always a little breathless, but not much! And especially low levels. Gain a mini or full, no difference: as if the preamp was always thoroughly and that the gain was only Knob down "virtual" level.
SOUNDS
Intolerable problem in my breath, but was rated "sounds" as such, I let the guitarists try this.
OVERALL OPINION
I restates that I am not a guitarist, so my advice is worth what it's worth. I hope others will scratch their own. My opinion is based on listening to other models peavey, vox, fender or Marschal transistor or lamp. it is not mine, I found the amp last week, and I fiddled a while ds every direction to try to minimize this fucking blows. Nothing to do. What I love most, for what I know guitar: good power, fairly complete connectivity, nice effects section, can save 4 settings What I like least: blast! breath and the breath yet! And this bug also change the volume between clean and crunch What is your opinion about the value for the price? In view of the other amps scratch that I know, for 400 € you can certainly find a little less wattage, but otherwise the best! The effects section, the storage is good, but what to do with an amp that even at 2 am sending you the mistral? With an amp "usual" blowing qud you push him, at worst it can put less safe and sound return ds. But here, even gain and volume to 0 (which anyway is not used to grd thing ...) and master in 2 or 3, already bcp blast too!
If other guitarists can contradict me, I myself am caught like a ball to cover, the better. But if not, I repeat my old principle: better less power, less frills, but a solid and clean. In this case, perhaps a 40Watts range above, with less fuss, but the storm unmanageable ...See less21Fane03

I've been using this amp for nearly one year. I bought it to have enough output power.
I didn't test anything before buying it (that's the only reason I bought it).

The overdrive channel is easy to set: max. OD1 for rock and max. OD2 for a sounds ranging from ACDC to heavy metal. Even with my Jackson the sound isn't very good, the tube simulation does a good job though. My previous Ibanez Tone Blaster gave better results... This amp is clearly a budget product...
The user's manual can be helpful in the beginning to set the amp.
SOUNDS
I play mainly heavy metal and this amp has not the best sound for that sort of music. The Peavy Bandit 112 is the best choice in this price range.
The amp sounds good for blues with maximum gain in the clean channel. It's also ok for rock but no hard rock.
To get a good metal sound I use Zakk Wylde's MXR distortion pedal because it has a good gain level. Surprisingly enough the sound becomes flat and loses punch with a POD.
In short, the sound is only average...

I've been using it for almost one year and I already want to change it. I've been playing guitar for over one year and I wanted a cheap Marshall but I won't buy their products anymore...
You get a much better sound with a Peavey, a Randall or an Orange. I wouldn't buy it again.See less00
