    Marshall MG30DFXPublished on 05/16/14 at 04:44
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    type of amplification: transistor
    What is the power output: 30 watts
    What are the settings: Classic knobs (volume, bass, treble, gain) + Digital Fx

    UTILIZATION

    The configuration is it simple? just plug the guitar
    Gets it easy to sound good? when is not difficult, yes
    The manual is clear and sufficient? yes

    SOUNDS

    With what (s) guitar and effect (s) do you play? I play with a Stratocaster and a multi-effects pedal zoom G7.1ut

    OVERALL OPINION

    I used it for 4 years before I started on Guitar Rig. As soon as we progress we quickly realized that this amp is not top.

    30W transistor amp, two cranberry, HP 10 "marshmall.
    * Settings:
    Clean-channel: volume and equalizer two bands
    Overdrive-channel: gain, volume, three-band equalizer
    -Effects: type of effect (reverb, delay (with adjustable frenquence of the echo), chorus and flanger (with adjustable speed)), the effect of presence: time for the reverb, feedback for the echo, presence for the chorus and flanger depth for.
    -A "simulator lamps "...! (In switch)
    * Connectivity:
    Alim-sector
    -Input
    CD-in: between one to send a signal but has no volume control on the amp and do not suffer the effects.
    -Footswitch: for a switch track option (30 euros)

    Headphone-Format (6.25).
    Complete, no effects loop (unlike say ca catalogs) but it's not something that is very important for me (big amps do not).
    In addition he has a good mouth with his pannel dor.

    UTILIZATION

    There is a manual for those who could not make it work without it is very simple to use, it has quickly made the rounds. Is easily obtained even if the sound overall sound of the amp lets be desired. Relatively simple even when you're not fiddling effects.

    SOUNDS

    Transistor in all its splandeur!
    I do not use the clean channel, I find the treble too single, ca break my ears.
    I use only the overdrive channel with the gain to a minimum. I then clear sound warm already (but you lose volume). But the gain really well set to 0, there is no sound and it runs a bit too, was a sort of crunch (if I may call it that) that appears a little attack that ds violently a note. Moreover, the distortion is gross, it's old transistor saturation which gives her a dirty souait feedback to limit it so much drool. Despicable! Metals can be too demanding but I love it not my niche.
    The simulator lamp, a "super" discovery that apparently needed the patent marshmall. This is actually a small boost that gives a little life the amp as if we had added a preamp (I mean not a class A, either!).
    However, I must avoyer that the effects are quite successful, they are better than on my gx 700. They are quite alive although numerically.
    A so yeah, it can be more mouth than its 30 W but then it UP! The HP trs saturates quickly means the laminae vibrate by the sound of plastic bag and you can hear the vibration in the fairing parts of the amp.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I for one year, it allowed me to start but I intension to move to the lamps. Deja transistor is often not that great but then this is the worst of all. It amused me but it is time to play at to be. For that price I think it yaa better. It also allowed me to see a bad amp for the HIWATT apprcier better than ever will buy.

    Transistor

    30 W

    I have yet to try the line out with HP emulation.

    EDIT: really bad

    UTILIZATION

    Config simple. I do not like the sound clean. It looks like an emulation of the Clean. It's pretty but lackluster and not very natural.

    The disto ... ok, there is saturation. It's too trashy. The contour knob is effective, but it lacks grain. It goes best with the reverb. But the gain is too high it is not subtle enough.

    The integrated effects is good (reverb delay chorus flanger)

    SOUNDS

    It is not a someone who want to rock "calm" Saturation is too much trash ... This gives a rough draft it's too bad.

    edit jai try the emulated line out with headphones: no surprise the sound is still too dirty. this is not the gain is a challenge but the clipping is too brutal bcp! and that the channel is called: overdrive! rather it is the big distortion!

    OVERALL OPINION

    No footswitch as standard, it is a little cheap ....( slight)

    I do not like the sound.

    It's not for me ... fortunately

    30W transistor amp
    2 channels, 2 band EQ (bass and treble)
    loop effects (reverb, chorus, delay, flanger) and amp simulation lamp.

    UTILIZATION

    Simple configuration
    The clean channel is nice but the sound is not natural
    The overdrive channel is very rough and VERY difficult to get a good sound
    This amp for the clean channel could be right for blues, rock, pop overdrive channel but it is only suitable in very metal CRAD
    The manual is clear and sufficient

    SOUNDS

    I play rock, blues, hard rock of annnées 60,70,80 and it is very difficult to get the sounds I want (but this also comes from my guitar is an ibanez GRG170DX and not suitable too much for my syle of mus…

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use this amp for over a year and I board were very disappointed with its performance. Now I can get sounds not too bad but I can not wait to change the amp. I do not have that choice would do if I had to change amp
