15 watt amp (which spits out not bad for a 15 watts). A clean or OD mode, reverb, CD input. 2-band EQ (treble, bass) + contour. Volume gain. Headphone output.
FDD switch (imitation lamps).
No footswitch input (damage).

UTILIZATION

It's already a real amp. We must look at the settings that affect the sound honestly.
The use of FDD is essential nonetheless.

SOUNDS

The FDD mode is very persuasive, it engages and clean, it was a beautifully rendered, the sound tube is very well emulated! The volume is more than enough, the reverb is quite frankly.
Where the rub is when we go in full. Sure, the gain in the distortion goes away, but the sound is really cold, slimy, too shrill, irritating to the ear (!!).
With the gain in half (small crunch) it goes something like that.
Very good clean sound, then, saturated sound disgusting, but you can always remedy this by buying a distortion pedal.
10/10 to clean (for the price)
4 / 10 in saturated

OVERALL OPINION

I tried it twice with a girlfriend. I have at home an all-tube amp, and the clean sound of marshall really surprised me.
I hate full, I think you need a pedal.
It is in the $ 100 I think it's honorable for the quality of the amp. Although the OD is bad, it works and can play ca. I think that's the kind of amp that we take the first amp, in my opinion a very good choice.
