« Marshall VT15 »
Published on 11/18/03 at 15:00Bought at Manny's Music in Manhattan for $120. I had been using a Squier amp up to this point -- usable, but not enough power and attitude.
Though the Marshall offered fewer options than the Squier (eg. no reverb), the basic sound was just superior. You can get a considerably powerful rhythm crunch if you crank both gain knobs, and clean sounds by turning down. Good 3-band EQ.
No reverb. And there's only one channel.
High. Aside from some dust gathering, the thing still looked almost new after three years of playing.
If this amp hadn't been stolen, I'd still be using it to get my guitar sounds. Though I love the Line 6 Pod, this amp simply had more guts. This model is now defunct, replaced by Marshall's MG and AVT lines.
