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.
