All user reviews for the Marshall MG15DFX

This amp is nearly identical to the Valvestate series. I've owned a 15W combo and 100W head for about 10 years so I know them well. I found a great price on the MG so I bought it so I'd have a pair to run with my stereo effects units.

I play all types of music and also own many high end high power amps both tube and SS and have been playing for over 50 years so I'm not a beginner and this is not my first amp. I've used the Valvestate mostly for practicing. I've used it for some small rehearsals and only live once where I miced it up.

These amps can get fairly loud but barely keep up with a live acoustic drummer. The 8" speaker simply cant produce a large enough footprint. Knowing these amps, If I wanted something for live I'd get a 30 or 50W. A 15W tube amp is rated in clean watts and may have an additional 30% driven volume which makes a 15W tube amp louder then a SS amp. These will put out 15W at max volume with no reserve so they are more like a 10W tube amp.

Since I have two now I may be able to gig with them but I'd still likely use a larger amp. I'll use the two of these for recording or small acoustic gigs which I do occasionally.

The MG appears to have the same power amp as the Valvestate and the EQ seems to be about the same. The MG may have a little more treble but it may only be the amp has seen less use and the speaker is in better shape. The MG is also close backed and the Valvestate is open. I can match the EQ tones however so there cant be much difference

The differences are the Valvestate has two gain volumes and a master volume, no channel switching. The MG has a clean channel and a gain/lead channel. They share the same EQ and Effects. When I dial up the cleans they are nearly identical. The driven channel is similar to having the Valvestate gains cranked.

The gain on the MG is all or nothing however. There are no crunch tones on the amp. The gain goes from zero to heavy to overkill. Since I am an electronic tech I may attempt to remedy that problem at some point but its not that important. As I said I run a stereo effects pedal so I'll most likely run the clean channel only. I have plenty of Marshall pedals for drive tones like a Governor and Blues breaker I can use for drive tones as well. The amp does not have a pedal jack for switching channels either so switching channels when playing isn't possible unless you mod the amp and install a jack (which would be fairly simple too) that

The MG does have a couple of other features. Its got a button that emulates tube tone that works fairly well. I have something similar on my Valvestate 100.
The 15W Valvestate has a line out Headphone out and CD/line in. The Line out is not speaker emulated so it doesn't record very well direct.

On the MG they combined the CD in and line out with a toggle switch. The line out is speaker emulated so you can record direct with it - good option many newer amps have. The headphone also disconnects the internal speaker which the Valvestate doesn't, which is kind of dumb.

The Valvestate only has a cheap reverb spring and after 10 years is pretty weak. Again I don't use it much anyway. The MG does have some excellent quality effects built in. You can only run one at a time but they are very usable.

As far as some of the bad reviews I've read, Its obvious the people who bought the amps were either expecting too much from a small amp or simply don't know how to use the Marshall tones these amps produce. I read where many who complained had cheap guitars and hot wound pickups too.

Guitars with Vintage wound pickups are going to sound the best on these amps because you get a wide frequency response from vintage pickups. Hot wound pickups typically have a loss in Highs and lows and boosted mids in a trade off to get a stronger signal. You need an amp with allot of treble boost to make hot wound pickups sound decent and these Marshalls have traditional EQ's so I can see why many beginners got bad tones. They had the wrong guitar for the wrong amp.

With the right guitar these little amps cook. Bright and chippy sounding with typical Marshall tones. Good amp for the money simply don't expect them to be as big and robust as its big brothers.

Transistor amplifier with lamps simulation.
Two jack inputs, a guitar amp and a line for playback.
For the rest refer to other opinions.

UTILIZATION

The config is very simple, turn the knobs and go. The effects are correct for not just be pushed into a corner too.
The manual has not served me (I'm not a fan ...) but it seemed provided me enough to start. After that, it is better to his arms and ears alone.

SOUNDS

I do mostly pop, pop-rock or punk kind more Green Day or Simple Plan.
I use it mainly after my ZOOM G2.1u multi-effect on the clean channel. But even without, he's doing a lot of the sound is clear, is saturated. The crunch is hard to find ...
Otherwise, works well for the guitar voice with the second input and an amplification of the microphone, ideal for mini-concerts in the largest room of your home!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 7 years, never disappointed. After this course I do not really use that at home or in small groups for leisure.
I remake that choice, because not very expensive and it was an amp not too big, not too small for home and small performances.

I bought this amp used off www.instrumentexchange.com for 80 bucks. I got it because, my first amp i had gotten with my guitar(it was a dean markley) was so terrible. I've played for over a year, and I am self taught. I play all kinds of styles from metal to rock to Klezmar to ballads. The amp comes with 4 digital effects, which i describe later in this review. My setup is a Ibanez GRX40 guitar with 1 humbucker and 2 single coils.

I love the distortion. My last amp was an extremely cheap dean markley 9 watt amp. This Marshall made my Ibanez GRX40(btw, a cheap guitar) sound like anything you hear in the studio. The distortion is rich, soulful, and crunchy. Now keep in mind that this is coming from a 160 dollar beginner guitar.

The digital effects are great. The reverb is incredible, the delay is to die for if you set it midway and use it with distortion. The chorus is good. An odd effect is that it really sharpens up the distortion, making it cutting. This can be a good thing or bad thing. If you're playing on the clean channel, it hurts the ears if you play the humbucker, but thats just the guitar. It is like an icepick sound without the chorus, but the chorus makes it more cutting.) However, if you play punk or the such, it is a great effect. If you play on the clean channel with the single coil, it is beautiful. Once again I can get the sound i hear on the radio all the time, even with my cheap single coils. The flange is okay, it doesn't really suit my need. It seems more like a gimmick, but it can sound really cool if the phase rate is set slow. Another great thing about this marshall is the bass. My previous amp had no bass. This Marshall really brings out the low end. It gives out as much bass as my friend's bass amp he plays through. Of course, some do not like the bass heaviness, but thats a matter of preference. This amp gets very loud too. I play it on a quarter of the volume on the distortion channel and 1/3 of the volume on the clean channel. Please note I play this in my bedroom, so it naturally will sound loud.

I do not like the fact that it buzzes at higher gain. It also takes a few seconds after you switch effects for the effects to kick on. I also do not like the fact that you can only have one effect on at any given time. But this IS a practice amp, so i really don't have a complaint.

The amp is built very ruggedly. It seems very tough, with metal knobs, and contruction.

This amp is a great amp, hands down. I have not played crates or peavey amps, but i can say I can see why Marshall is considered top brand. It makes a great 2nd (or first amp) for those who just play as a bedroom hobby, as well as practice amp.

Bottom Line: Incredible amp.

Got this with a Yamaha Pacifica at Hooters, Watford: £299 for the set including other stuff as well, so the amp was probably £70ish if you deduct the rest of the kit (don't expect to get this price unless it's part of a pack).

This is a great amp. It's a really good size - not as small as the 10 watt model (which looks weedy) and about the right size for bedroom practice. I don't know about the sound though - I have turned the volume up to 2 (out of 10) and I don't really want to make it any louder in case I annoy the neighbours. It's pretty damn loud (hopefully)! It's really good having a headphone socket so you can practice silently, and the effects are great (although I don't use them much - this is Marshall's cheapest DFX amp). Overall a great amp, buy it!

The power plug is a bit short so it helps if you have a wall socket nearby or an extension lead. Apart frkom that it's great for the size and price.

It looks really tough and well made and I haven't had any problems.

A great amp, definitely for bedroom practice but it can probably play really loud as well so for any use really.

I purchased this amp new at Fletcher's in Big Flats, NY. I paid $220 with tax. I wanted a Marshall (solid state or not), and it sounded way better than the tiny Ibanez amp I was using at the time.

The tube emulation feature on this unit is fairly good, good enough that most non-anal-retentive guitar freaks couldn't tell the difference unless they were looking for it. Well, close. You can get some good rock tones going out of this baby, and still get a bit of sparkle clean. Also, for a 15 watter, it's pretty darn loud. The digital effects alone equal the cost of the amp. Also, it never hurts to be noticed lugging around a Marshall.

My only real gripe with this unit is in the digital effects' controls. One knob selected both the effect (reverb, delay, chorus, flange) and the rate, which made dialing in a specific sound (especially delay time) difficult to do quickly, and without bending over and studying it. The depth was selected with a different knob. Also, the clean channel has no gain knob, which is just a nice option to have, in my opinion.

I didn't find anything wrong at all with quality. The knobs didn't feel cheap when I turned them, which is something I'm very concerned with, for some reason. The amp got banged around a little bit, but no scratches or gashes. You start to forget that it was made in China.

For any non-band situations, this is a great-sounding little rocker at a fairly decent price, considering that it's one of the most respected names in rock. I'm pretty sure I'll hang on to this one for recording (I've moved on to a Peavey Transformer 212), because it can blast out great tones that are normally reserved for tubed members of the amp family. Keep in mind, it isn't a tube amp, but the majority of people (and even a lot of guitar players) couldn't hear the difference. I love it, tedious effects and all. Viva la Marshallution!

I bought this amp at The Academy Of Sound in Manchester. The RRP is £109 but i got it for £100.

I've always been told that everyone needs a good practice amp, so thats what i was in the market for. When i saw the amp I couldnt believe it, a Marshall at £100? But I plugged it in and i was impressed by the huige range of sounds I could get from it. With my JEM, I can get sounds from Hendrix all the way to Cacaphony and everything inbetween. It has FDD, which simulates the way valves interact with the speaker, while this is not quite the same as my JCM, its still pretty impressive. The effects are decent, but im not a big effects user anyway. You get reverb, chorus, delay and flange.

Nothing, apart from sometimes setting the delay rate can be tricky and at low volumes the OD channel is slightly fizzy.

You could throw a brick at it and it would still be in one piece. Excellent!

If your looking for a first amp or a better practice amp, at this price it begs to be tested.

I purchased this amp from Guitar Center for $159.99. After purchasing a new Strat, i was in the market for a new amp as my brother bascially commandeered my old peavey. After reading some positive reviews on this and other similar sites, i decided that this was the amp i wanted

Where to start...First off, like all other marshall amps, it just looks good. Clean design. Well placed knobs and inputs/outputs. For only having 15 watts of juice, this amp sure cranks out some decibels. It is definately loud enough for anyone looking for a good practice amp, but it probably isn't suitable for any gigs. The best part of the amp is the Digital Effects. I am yet to buy any effects (pedals, etc.) because i am not sure that they are necessary because i have been able to closely simulate pretty much all songs that i have wanted. It is awesome, and the best bang for you buck!

The only small gripe i have is that there is no master volume, but instead seperate volumes for each channel.

Awesome. Sturdy. Seems like it will last a lifetime.

Anyone who is a beginner/intermediate looking for an amp that will not only be able to rock thier bedroom, but also allow you to immitate the sounds of your favorite songs, this is the way to go. It is also great for more advnaced players looking for a backstage warm-up, or home practive amp. This is the one to get!!

I was looking for a decent sized practise amp to play my new Epiphone les Paul through. I read 1 favourable review of it, and purchased it over the internet, from a shop in Newcastle, UK

This amp is great. Much better than My old MKII G10. Its as loud as you like, and the tone and feel of it is great, typical of marhsall. The Effects are a great bonus, and the Frequency dependant damping makes it sound as though your really using an all valve amp! Its perfect! if you need a practise amp, go buy THIS!

There is nothing i don't like!!

It measures 38cm x 38cm x 18cm. It is a solid unit, with easy to use knobs

The bottom line is, this is a great amp. Its loud, Warm, and versatile. Go get one of your own!!

Purchased this unit online from a well known wholesaler for about $165, including shipping. I wanted a "bedroom" practice amp to play my Epi Les Paul through.

Actually, I like everything about the amp, it's quite a bit more versatile than I expected, and for a small unit, it's louder than hell. With the two channel set-up, clean and crunch, along with the onboard digital effects, I can mimic the sound of almost any guitar, in a song I want to learn.

What's not to like?

The unit appears to be very well constructed, The input jacks all feel solid, the knobs and switches are tight and smooth, all the corners have metal, gloss black caps, attached with brass screws- this toy was made to last.

For anyone who wants a relatively cheap practice amp, that has the versatility to reproduce a wide range of different guitar sounds, and is loud enough to fill a fairly large room- this is the ticket.

15W transistor, 4 effects, chorus, delay, reverb and flanger.

UTILIZATION

Unnecessary knobs and not need the manual to find out.

SOUNDS

Apart from the sound that is quite clear if the OD is cold, cutting dénaturisée, I put some reverb aténuer for all that.

OVERALL OPINION

I used it a year and I regret having spent my money in there even if it's an amp with which I have also progressed. Used the quality / price is not bad but do not buy it new. I do not do again because this choice for the 150th there are much better (on the side of Roland and vox in particular).

Good features: effects utulisables perfectly! especially the reverb, because for the delay, it lacks an adjustable rate of time ... damage (there is on MG50).
The distortion is the most convincing I've heard for less than 200!

This is only 15W, but it gives! I can play 3 / 4 power and support a battery in the studio!

Just a concern really annoying: it vibrates very much! must be regularly tighten around the or he "TZZZ" TZZZ "... I can not stand! (note: it can be as mine ...)

UTILIZATION

Conventional use of an amplifier, the volume knob is not sensitive tros (it's not so common!) Although in distortion, the volume takes off very quickly in the apartment.
I leave the board simulation lamp is not really down constent bluffing, but the amp is warmer and more dynamic.

SOUNDS

It is the marshall ... I am rather ... Fender (magical and clear sound overdrive fine) but it can let off steam in distortion! The sound is clear enough for me.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a year since I now that I glue a rail end, and I bluff tt the mustaches of the guitar! Even the guys that run the lights! : O)

I repeat and I sign: it has the best combo of distortion of less than 200 I have ever heard!

Too bad I'm a little disappointed with the quality of manufacturing ... Otherwise, it would be 10/10.

MG Series - Combo 15 W transistors - HP 8 "Custom - 2 channel - 3 band EQ - SETTING THE contour - Multi-effects Intgr (rverbe, chorus, dlais, flanger ...) - Line out jack - Headphone jack - CD input

The only difference with the Marshall MG15CDR Intgr is the multi effects!

UTILIZATION

Its configuration is simple! Must have when even a little ear for good tater rglage but for beginners this is perfect!
Easily obtained a good sound, a distortion is the button and there is the key effect that simulates a marshall amp lamp which is trs enjoyable!
The manual although not trs payroll DIFFERENT clearly explains the buttons, and with a little help collection's outdoor, we can easily find "the sound"

SOUNDS

It is ideally suited my style of music, the volume is trs lev for 15 watts and keep a good claret! I played with a Cort X2 above and frankly I do not regret the purchase! With this amp, you can get a lot of varied style! But to have a good good metal, I recommend a multi effect pedals or! But for beginners, the RVE: D

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for one week, I'm super happy! This is my first amp and it is with him that I ferrai all my beginners!
There are small children default, but it is just because of its position in my room. His report is qualitprix Excellent!

If you want to buy MG15CDR and you have still a few pennies in my pocket, I recommend the dfx, multi dot is indeed well sympatoche!

For beginners, it's up

15 W transistor amp ... New FDD circuit (simulation of an all-tube amp), headphone and between to connect a CD player for example.
2 channels: clean and overdrive with volume indpendant CONTRL.
3-band EQ: bass, contour, treble.
Numriques effects: Flanger, Delay, Chorus, Reverb with CONTRL adjustment and level.
PSE 7.2 kg. HP Custom Voiced 8 "
To see the panel CONTRL:

UTILIZATION

Easy to use. It includes a manual giving the example of qq as blues, mtal ... Retailer with the explanation for each function. Easily obtained with a good sound qualiseur.
The clean channel sound is not bad but not powerful enough I got (probably this comes from my guitar pickups are not enough cash!)
The sound channel saturated ... bah it's marshall .... Rgler can adjust the volume and overdrive. In contrast, saturated channel sound is more powerful.

SOUNDS

This amp suits me well. I use it for rock, punk ...
I play it with a Squier Affinity Start (Fender Fat Start by few fps) with 2 pedals Distortion BOSS HM-3 and DS-1.
The sound is very well for an amp of this price. Trs good I think for the home.
As concrne effects, they are pa ngligeables, flanger, chorus or reberb are nice to use.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this amp about 2 months ago. I like the sound of this amp, I am satisfied.
I tried the Roland Cube 15 which is pretty good, 30 better, it also numriques intgre effects, with 30 W ...
Good qualitprix .... It is found to 200

I will not repeat what others have already said.

UTILIZATION

No need to take the lead in finding the right sound, it should still search for it.

SOUNDS

This amp is very Polivalente is an advantage but a disadvantage as being Polivalente, it can not be good at one style of music précis.Le sound is not cold but not hot either, we will not blame it a transistor amp all the same! The multi purpose, though of average quality is excellent for this level of variety is a good point for this amp. The power is to go for a 15W.

OVERALL OPINION

I started on this amp and thanks to its Polivalente found my style (I do ke five months of the guitar) I think keeping it at least another 6-7 months and change to a brand lamps. to start, this amp is excellent and probably the best in its class, it does not ruin by buying it. I do not put 10 because perfection does not exist.

15-watt transistor amp
Between-guitar
Headphone-out
-Among other
-Usual settings plus 4 effects (reverb delay chorus flanger)
- So the trick to make us believe that a sound like a lamp

UTILIZATION

Can hardly be simpler, volume, tuning the midrange and low treble gain and volume for distortion, and an adjustable level effects, the minimum
-Easy to get a good sound is the most hard, in view of the limited sensitivity of potassium for acute and severe and medium in terms of distortion is all or nothing less to play the volume at the guitar
Finally, the manual ... I did not see the shadow of this stuff and frankly it would have been a bit useless

SOUNDS

I played it with an immitation of strat storm (I know the scratch is not great either)
In fact, what attracted me premium Abors was the sound round and fat in clear, distortion is more like a parcontre bouillabesse of breath, and then level it is like to
Cape Horn like this last point to the effects which makes them unpleasant and ultimately I think it's more a gadjet to attract customers, but quite funny two minutes to have much effect buy real pedals
A yes I forgot there is the small button in front theoretically, simulate a light amplifier, and if it was the lamp I will always be to the transistor, the sound is actually more round but really it is much more poorly defined, So I use it ever.

OVERALL OPINION

I have now for eight months, and I think quality over price level there is much better (who types the fender around 100 euros, although that is not the same sound), and then to play I think the house was still the ideal pods or vamp, because small amplifiers quality level is not great in general.

It is a 15 watt amplifier transistors. A clean channel and overdrive channel.
In clean channel, a rglage for the volume.
In overdrive channel, a rglage for volume, a rglage to gain saturation.
An equalizer for bass, and treble mdiums.

4 effects: rverberation, delay, chorus, flanger. Rglage to select an effect and a DSIR rglage to the intensity of the effect.

Finally, a circuit "FDD" that mimics the sound of the amp lamp. It gives more power and depth to the sound.

UTILIZATION

This device is simple to use, but even when asked some time to tame it. Custom settings are simple, but this amp takes time before the well matriser rglages DIFFERENT.

The manual is short, they could have got my dvelopper a little part o rglages they offer.

SOUNDS

It should be my style of music I play rock and hard rock.
I play electric guitar with an Ibanez SA120.

We can get a lot of sounds. I had problem with beginners, because Overdrive channel, the high notes, I found the sound n'tait unsatisfactory. Therefore be patient and take the time to connatre this amplifier.

The sounds I prfre: I like the sound of the overdrive channel, it is less than cetain own amps, but I prfre this sound, I find it more authentic. Among the flanger effect is excellent.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month.

What I like most: the sound of the overdrive channel, and flanger.

I tried several MODELS in this price range is certainly one of the best.
The report price is excellent quality, this amplifier rated 160.

I think I do it again the same choice.

(See other posts)

UTILIZATION

Résumé to "simpler you die" ^^... It is very easy to use TRS, an EQ common to two cranberry with a bass / contour / treble, the clean channel has a volume knob and a saturated volume knob and gain. .. muulti the effect could not be simpler to use: the effect is selected using a button similar to those of volume, the amount and another button with the same ...

As for sound, it will quadn even a short time and especially mastery of the thing before a distortion in its own, and so the beast has a lot of blowing distortion and therefore requires patience, but you get there (I was a little over 2 years I have, even if it's more my main amp to work tapping into my room it gnial ^ ^).

the manual is rather clear, but what struck me the most aid is the era of the DIFFERENT schmas rglages Submitted (blues, rock, metal ...)

SOUNDS

This amp fits in a register rather rock / blues (bah so it's not a mesa boogie with a distortion of fl ^ ^), I used to beginners with a Fender Jag-stang has made a good little of his nirvana ... I really like the fact that multi-ects rather good quality ... by against the saturation is really sucks to beginners ... but it's never a good 15 watts 200 euros (the price I pay the era ...)

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 years and I must say that for a amplisde this range it is more than good because trs full and pretty (well yes it's still important!). It is a rather well done dtail apartment, but that's a good on all the amps you will say, the channel change button is not very easy to ACCS , but hey, must chippoter a little.

Classic Combo 15W,
Channels: clean & overdrive
Rglage volume for a clean sound, and rglage volume and gain (knob 2) to overdrive.
Equatlizer bass, mdium & acute.
HP 8 "Custom
1 between Jack, a headphone from a CD & (nice to jam).
4 effects: rverbe, chorus, dlais, flanger (a single knob that way for changments!)
+ 1 knob of rglage to the intensity of the effect
Technoligie + FDD (dvelloper by Marshall) supposed to imitate the warmth of all-tube amp! (A view ....)
Go and throw a quick glance at the control panel:
http://www.marshallamps.com/images/products/mg/mg15dfxfrontpanel.html

UTILIZATION

Nothing is easier, there is no longer that connect the BTE and Go!
The manual is sufficient.

But to get the sound, it will not have to be too pressing! (It is nothing inquitant be a minimum of exprience)

SOUNDS

I used it in clean, otherwise, I had a KORG AX1500G multii effect because the overdrive n'tait trs not convincing.
With SG, the clean channel is warm and not "click" it (is good for his ears)
Volume level for beginners is just enough, just to start and nothing else. For a room as the volume is sufficient. But not for one group or BPS. Pushed to 3 / 4 the power DFX is no longer the stroke and the sound quickly becomes mush. I saw one on 15W scne, well no c tro nice noise!
on the other hand level effects: ho hum, it is essentially a selling point: the effects are far from a trs pedals or a multi purpose, plus I found a super duty binding on every turn knob to change!
But hey it dfend in its range ...

OVERALL OPINION

For a price of 150 the beginners do not have that go to shop. But beware, it's not because it's Marshall that his rsiste all! It is good for learning the guitar electric but no more!
APRS a year of good and loyal service, I'm spar: want more power, more quality of group play ... that with a MG15DFX can not have.
But to conclude, this amp is a REFERENCE in its range and is in no way dnigrer!

Small 15-watt Marshall amp transistor.
Two channels, clean, overdrive.
4 effects and control of the power of the effect.
volume control, gain, treble / bass / mid.
3 entries; entry scratches, cd input, headphone.
8-inch speaker.
paid € 70

UTILIZATION

Using very simple: you plug and ...
even a penguin could settle with his feet, it said.
get a good sound ... look below: p

SOUNDS

I use this amp with an Epiphone Special II.
I admit I do love her more too sounds have been compared with my old cube 40:
the clean sound is clean, no problem, but for an amp that packs a distortion and effects ...
saturated sound is horrible when you touch two strings at the same time ...
for plug in pieces baby it's okay, but otherwise ...
what does it drool Mr. Marshall!

In short: its clear, clean, overdrive ...
one meal.

OVERALL OPINION

Soon I use this amp for a year.
I do not really like this amp, it has no point to be positive side ...
negative side it should be noted that horror that is the overdrive channel.
I had not tried to amp too, I started and I wanted an amp pretty quickly this one came to € 70, new.
The value for money ... there must be at € 120 in your merchants ... to start it has a good quality / price ratio, but if you've played a little, you'll see it soon runs out of steam.
If I had money, and the ear to appreciate my previous amp, I kept my 70 € for a distortion pedal ...
Do not lynchons; to start, no problem. For its clear, it is doing. but for the full, it's crap.

See previous opinion for the technical overview

9 because I put a small 15W amp and this size, do not expect to have the effects loops, channel 4 etc ...

UTILIZATION

The configuration is simple architecture (there's not much either ^ ^)
the sound comes out more quickly than through the volume. I do not even know if there is a technical doc, but I do not see what it could be used ... o_O
At home, everyone uses it without me necessarily, and yet everyone comes to do some things ^ ^

SOUNDS

Starting on the fact that it is a 15W amp, you can not expect to have the sound of a JCM 8008 or ...
The irony is that it should not hurt my style ^ ^ Of course, does not break his three-legged duck, but the sound is huge for its size!
I have a C7 Hellraiser, Lag AM1000 an increase in micro and Gibson TJ Mako-2 in Dm, and all manage to make it sound that little maous-strong!
The distortion is very good (and I mean it), the harmonics are out with disconcerting ease (I can almost believe that I can play!), And clear sound is more than nice!
The sound is classic, no particular grain, but is nonetheless effective and powerful.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for the past 4 ½ years, and despite my Laney stack just waiting to talk about the powder, this little 15W works all the time!
Super practical, great sound, light, powerful, all you need for an amp to flat (and may even scare the neighbors ^ ^), in short, a great amp to start!
The value is qu'affolant! Mine has 4 years of tones for hours of play behind him, and it still works great, I've never had a problem with!
My brother used to rehearse with his band, and the amp is much more than the road! It covers a battery to half its volume!
With experience, I do not remake that choice since I have the gear stage and I need some gear for stage and studio, but I direct all young guitarists I know about this one and all are more than satisfied with this amp.
And if mine were to give up the ghost (I hope not), I probably would resume the same forever be apart of an amp and working (for not having to always turn on the lights while 100W ...)

Keep in mind that this amp is perfect for beginners, super reliable, super sound, very reasonable price (rather than taking a Stagg ...)

Made in India

UTILIZATION

It's quite simple yes, but you get hard against a good sound, so plain you will be fine in distortion as the knobs do not die ... its not at all progressive, but no manual not too bad ...

SOUNDS

This amp is a freelance beginners, it is more likely than anything else you dgouter, even with a guitar more than correct (ressiu fender telecaster 62 'MIJ) was screaming sounds rough ...

OVERALL OPINION

I have two years (well above the majority of people giving their opinion), this amp is a real freelance beginners, make no mistake this amp has to marshall the name , go to the cot of fender, Vox, Hughes and Kettner, Peavey, all these names do not speak forcment as beginners, yet for the same price you can find really much better, In any case, do not be fooled by the lure of maque ...

here is a link that will explain why it is so bad with sound clips and various photos ( )

Any amplifier transistors
15 watts
is essentially everything else has been said (personal opinion on els because I liked to use when I had!)

I put 9 / 10 as a 15 watt transo is what the people demand.

UTILIZATION

Simple config extra
when we have a beginners as it was his royal too worked his ear and just find it REALLY sounds very particular tripottant the thing is pretty funny!

on the other hand for ear has a habit of good amps you fall into an amp month necessarily useful, but each has its use !!!!!

I remember the manual too!

I used a little faith in "concert" 30 people and the battery was a real acoustic, it was a big boil because you should not push his 15 watt thoroughly if it is a transistor, the sound is without definition, bah is not for what ca <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_lol.gif" alt="" />

great for the training, and low work pressure from his finger on it, it is quite reactive
I put 8 / 10 as easy to use and above all it has served the drummer back to long after I stopped playing it and that many times (it tilts a little, a little feedback ca May as the public does not hear it, it goes <img class="smiley" src="/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" /> )!

SOUNDS

He agreed quite when I played only the soad! beginners when I edged riffs of metallica it would pass, however, is not having any sound! "For the melodic death metal (mouahaha) you know of the amp is far from the surgical precision ncessaire

Today I only like clean sounds of this amp but back then I loved the most was my first good amp and a marshall appointment account!

I put 4.5/10 because it is not abuse "/> Not find it full of sounds, but surely not the sound

OVERALL OPINION

I jou over 3 years
it has a pretty face and a beautiful logo, but it sounds cool!
before I did this essay MODEL before buying but I think I caught 'the marshall' whatever my test ...

report quality decent price since I have seen amps in the same range of RPIX much worse and a little more expensive amp much better (new technologies ...)

Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ===>

biensur that my choice I would do it with this beast that I have learned to love the grate and will seek her for a beginners is I think an amp that will make you want to go away in search of his sound in both the saturated clean!

I put 7 / 10

PS: for all musicians who feel trapped by the desire to deplore this amp, try before criticizing, put this in context amp, an amp cheap, good looks, for beginners

- What kind of amplification (lamp, transistor ,...)? That amp is a transistor amp.
- What is the power delivered? This is a 15 Watts
- What connection? It has Input, CD in and Headphones.
- What are the settings, the effects? ... There are 8 knobs: Volume (to clean), gain and volume (for the overdrive channel), an EQ with bass, middle and treble, and the last two are devoted to digital effects.

I put 8 / 10 for my taste as a connection for a footswitch would have been too many.

UTILIZATION

- The configuration is it simple? Yes it is very simple, it is very difficult to get lost.
- Gets it easy to sound good? More or less, but sometimes I managed to get close to the original sound even though I think the gain knob is not precise, it's hard to have a fairly soft overdrive.
- The manual is clear and sufficient? ... I still have not had and he did not fail.

8 / 10 because of the overdrive channel not too specific.

SOUNDS

- Will it fit your style of music? Yes a little closely, it seems to me anyway very Polivalente although I do not know what he gives in style "rock Beef"
- With what (s) guitar (s) / low (s) or effect (s) you play? I play this amp with a Cort X2.

OVERALL OPINION

- How long have you use it? Since April 2008
- Have you tried many other models before buying it? I just tried not an Ibanez Tone-X store.
- How would you rate the quality / price? Not too bad although it is quite expensive as well but I feel good.
- With experience, you do again this choice? ... It is unlikely, because my expectations are changed.
I have not yet tried it with a group game but I am afraid that the power is not enough ...

I had this amp one to two years, I found it decent enough for it cost me 65euros. At full price it's a shame, a total rip off (built in India, costing two rupees ...).

The digital effects are parallel, so the sound is still analog (to start the effect you have about 2 seconds) in the most part.

The circuit fdd be disengaged, for softness and roundness, and quite noisy.
The EQ bass is useless, all the time back, but both are effective remaining egg.
The effects are adjustable mix, very useful.
No possibility of remote control, really mean.

Entry to be useful for a multi-effect that we control in addition via an a / b box for example. Good sound of this entry, which has the FDD circuit, that's great.

The output line is very low, in fact mic. But the sound delivered is really nice (on a keyboard amp fender 200 watts it does, seriously!) And does not have the FDD circuit.
The headphone output sounds strong and correct, with FDD for more gniaque.

UTILIZATION

Easy, except for the output line to mic level.
It is very difficult to play softly with one way or another it's always too loud. Troublesome at night in the apartment, especially if one is not (yet) deaf ...
In addition, the buzz hit me Standing on the system too.
No remote control is not zero, not cool to play it realistically.

SOUNDS

The law is clean, fairly flexible with / without the FDD.
The saturax is very nice, but the gain is already a result, no blues in there. Rock, and with a nice grain.
I ended up using the machine with an external hp 12pouces, as it lacks serious heat in the beginning.
Do you like Yngwie, this amp does that very well! Sounds with both pickups in parallel reflected great, a lot of flexibility and still fishing.

Attention in original condition is not great, a tbx15r Ibanez puts the mat every time.
By making a few holes on the back panel you get a little serious, and isolating the inside with a little foam you remove the sound card boiboite.

OVERALL OPINION

To play in the apartment is not for group play either (unless sound, then it's amazing quality), and finally an amp is not convenient.
On a box 12pouces 8 ohms you will be very happy, but still no sound for blues or remote channel / effects.

What can I say except that it's not top ben great, as to a bit more and take the 30 which is usable. For the background you can still install a gate liabilities (as stereo attenuator, in Monacor 15euros), I did it works well.

Its strength is simplicity, you have the basic rock sound that makes fly. Much know exactly what you want, it will not do anything else.
For 155 euros there are other solutions to buying this thing I think.
