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!
