100-watt solid-state amp with instrument and CD inputs, headphone output and footswitch connector.

The settings are quite simple: 2 channels with independent EQ and gain control, common reverb plus digital FX (flanger, delay, chorus and chorus/delay).

UTILIZATION

The configuration is very simple and you can easily find the sound you need (within the amp's possibilities) if you use an EQ.

If you are looking for a good tone you can try as long as you want, but you won't get it!

The user's manual is very short but it does include some settings examples.

SOUNDS

This amp doesn't match any music style because it sounds awful.

The amp is reliable and easy to use but it sounds very bad. This becomes very clear when you compare it with a real amp (even in the same price range... although the MG100 is still better than the MG10).

OVERALL OPINION

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 value for money is very bad! I think, Marshall uses its good reputation to sell lousy amps to beginners who want to play famous brand amps.

If I had known, I would have never buy it.

The best tip I can give you is to test several amps before buying one. And do the same with guitars.
