    Tt-transistor amplifier
    -100 Watts RMS
    Right-here I will not go on, and more.

    UTILIZATION

    -Y 'is no longer con! You take your scraper, t'allume the amp, you move the button and it's third party
    -This gives a very good sound quickly (for a transition, I will not say it is a lamp while it is on ca)
    -Good in theory there's no really need the manual, but to read the evening of Advent dormire is very well done.

    SOUNDS

    -His suits me very well as gear, I'm not a master of the guitar, I especially wanted a amp that is a good geule (and more than simpa Berheinger) and then he had a sound that I liked, which seemed quite versatile for me, I play mostly punk / rock and ja…

    SOUNDS

    -His suits me very well as gear, I'm not a master of the guitar, I especially wanted a amp that is a good geule (and more than simpa Berheinger) and then he had a sound that I liked, which seemed quite versatile for me, I play mostly punk / rock and jazz that defoi to relax, and he knows about doing this kind of sound.
    -Good for instent I play on an epiphone les paul spétial type, but by the end of this summer I'll have a little more CHOQ simpa, like a Rickenbacker 620 or a gibson les paul studio, I c is not.
    -Well, it's a simple song it goes on clear channel clear and it was clear that a song pe réler more or less specific depending on the gain you add, and more or less round function the middle and treble.Pour a well saturated, we spent on the Overdrive channel and then is good rule and we will be looking for if you are not too crippling, good in the channel clear There's a button selection Clean / crunch but I think the crunch is Assé musty pusque on overdrive channel is eg a sound can be of about the same thing then voila!
    Se-I prefer it put me on the channel has Gain Overdrive/OD2 the bottom, the lower medium, no or very little middle, treble a background, the outline of 3 or a little less, bottom and volume biensur 2 when the master of the world There's the house, if not five, but it's the neighbor who is not happy, luckily they are otherwise coulent.Bon pliend other sound that good but all nike I to fill out page 20.

    OVERALL OPINION

    It is about 8-me I have this amp and it's rare that there is a beautiful day and it is not a heating.
    Se-I like: it is his face more, it's really the geule, and then his well of course, is very good for a transition and then it's a Marshall so necessarily has a side a bit, comments say, I is not so mythical or the words exactle but I v dire.A so the foot is also in for when his feedback, it's class.

    The less-is enough chian transported, especially in ascal de Meun a little less than 1 meter large.Sinon the little fan noise can be chian, but not when a play is such as the OD2 channel that makes a noise loud enough to gain a background.
    Raport-quality / price is not bad, I pay € 605 with his cabinet MG412A, so for a Marshall bouble body is not bad, but it's transient.
    -With the experience I think I do it again maybe not the same choice, I will opt more for a Marshall double lamp body of its kind Jcm2000/tsl 100 which makes me dream, especially if I buy a high end guitar This été.D Moreover j'ensisage achter me of a by 2 years.
    Nevertheless it is a very good amp that is suitable for all rock and hard rock but the people who back the death style thing I think is not very aproprier.voila I put around 10/10 because it is a super amp

    The effects Intgr (CHR / DLY / FLG) are tightly controlled by the same knob, so you have a choice and stick because there is no possibility of foot switch.
    The clean sounds are OK and easy rglages.

    OVERALL OPINION

    We tried a lot of amps but always returned to the Marshall ... trs acceptable for a budget: less than 600 pounds for the head and a cabinet.
    So glad we bought one second. They are used in RPET and studio.
    Not yet exprience on stage ...

    SOUNDS

    I play mostly metal and blues raock, so the style sticks with the amp, no pedals to the FX, I mainly use a Gibson Flying V, Explorer and a Fender Stratocaster with a cable of good quality (Proco of) ...

    The sound varies, it can be saturated in fat and clean as crystal clear and vice versa following the guitar ...
    I love all the sounds ...

    The sound is quite clear Mat, a Bassman and a nice crunch has headroom and dynamics. The sound is not at all synthetic, it is all authentic side, not the lamp either, but it has a sound quite good.

    The Overdrive channel is discovered in OD1, which is the same as the crunch with a knob of "contour" and more and OD2 is the most muscular overdrive the amp, with a large reserve of gain knobs and effective and accurate. He must know how to adjust its setting and seek the most accurate, do not hesitate to push his research. It was not a JCM while Sovtek, but it was a very versatile amp head, with excellent sound and a good quality / price ratio.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it in conjunction with a Blackheart Little Giant (all-tube), it helps me in my travels, rehearsals, testing ... a good transistor amp to do everything, cheap and sturdy ...

    I'm very happy.

    SOUNDS

    Arriving in a studio again, my biggest fear is a Marshall MG, these cold monsters that have the name of Marshall ... Whenever he happened to play on this amp, I left half depressed because I had not managed to get THE sound. Even on a good HP 4x12 JCM, the sound is flat ... The distortions are terrible, we seek sound and it only happens to attract all the neighborhood cats (the mewing of the amp though strident must please them! Hehe).

    In addition, the amplifier accepts pedals very little external, including overdrive or distortion ... The sound is not clear, rough, flat and cold.

    2 / 10 for clean sounds, very "transistors" that can pass, but in some styles.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I'm surprised to see such positive feedback on notes & this amp ... One of two things: either I have tried wrong (though I often find myself having to play on repeat in the studio when there is no more than that ... ahem), or those who wrote those opinions n have never played on a real full amp tubes. A JCM sounds far better ...

    My overall opinion is very, very mixed: this amp does not ring. He might look great, with its logo Marshall, clean sounds are cold, loud distortion at will, no heat, a large hole in the mids ...

    A leak of urgency for those looking for a good amp stage. May agree to limit to a few lines at home ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I operate but holds now for 2 months. I cracked it when I clean the Inrush.
    I had thought of taking a Vox base, but frankly it is a marshall marshall a lamp or transistor style is unbeatable ..
    I do not think I would change for another, it suits me perfectly.
    The ratio quality price is excellent, since I had 550 euros to the head and a cabinet to perfectly clean the scne,
    play in the studio and home to be.
    In short a good amp, as I say it is Marshall, which is worth to be taken if you do not want to pay full price for the lamp.

    FDD is fantastic

    Marshall MG100HDFXPublished on 07/11/11 at 22:54
    Why this is 100 watts is beyond me? This amp is a decent practice amp but not great for blasting down walls. This amp is rated at 100 watts and is a solid state amp which are only good for one thing and that is playing at home. The tone of sold state amps are just lousy and unrealistic. The added FDD switch adds a bit of beef to the distortion tone for this amp. However, even that isn't enough to hook this up to a 4x12 cabinet and go out to the Whiskey.

    UTILIZATION

    Twin footswitchable channels -- clean and overdrive

    Independent tone controls for bass, middle, and treble on each channel

    Master volume
    12 in. Eminence speaker
    FDD (Frequency Dependent Damping)
    Supplied 2-way footswitch (clean/overdrive, DFX on/off)

    SOUNDS

    The tone from this amp isn't that bad for being a solid state amp. It has two channels and two modes for each channel and all are very usable in the basic functions. This is an all in one amp for a beginner guitar player. Any one who has spent any time with a tube amp will not go for this other than to have as a practice unit for silence or office use. The crunch channel will get you a great classic rock tone. Trying using a Gibson Les Paul or SG and dial down the gain for some good Led Zeppelin tone or Ac/Dc crunch.The over drive channel are excellent for modern rock and will sound good with any guitar used with humbucker pickup.

    This amp should stay at home and be used for just hamming and that is the dilemma I have for it being a waste 100 watts when it just needs to be about 15 watts.

    OVERALL OPINION

    These amps have been replaced by the Marshall MG101FX and is no longer in production. You can find these on the used market all day long. At new they were sound $460 so I'm guessing used would be about $280. Not a bad price but then you have to buy a cabinet if you don;t have one. SO there is more money that you'll have to shell out. I would not recommend this version of the series of amps from Marshall. I would get a 15 watt version and see if you like playing through it. If so then go out and buy a Marshall Jcm 2000 DSL 100.

    The Marshall MG100HDFX is a solid state amplifier with onboard effects and 100 watts of power. It has a 1/4 inch input in the front for your guitar, as well as 1/4 inc connections for the foot pedal that comes with it and outputs for the speaker cabinet coming from the head. The head is split into three channels - clean channel, distortion channel, and the digital effects section.

    The use of this Marshall amp is quite easy. It only takes a minute or two to figure out what everything does on this amp, and if you have any experience with Marshall amps, you'll figure this out in a minute. It is easy to manipulate the clean and distortion channels to get a variety of sounds…

    UTILIZATION

    The use of this Marshall amp is quite easy. It only takes a minute or two to figure out what everything does on this amp, and if you have any experience with Marshall amps, you'll figure this out in a minute. It is easy to manipulate the clean and distortion channels to get a variety of sounds and also is easy to pick and choose between the digital effects it has. I don't have a manual, but most shouldn't need it as it is pretty easy to figure out.

    SOUNDS

    I play a lot of rock and pop music, so while this amp definitley would suit these styles, I find the overall sound of this amp to be too tinny for my taste. The clean channel is okay, but the overdrive isn't full enough and isn't true to the name of Marshall in my opinion. I have only use this amp with guitar - usually a Gibson SG without any effects or anything, because this has effects on it. While it is nice to have a few different effects built into an amp, most of the effects on this are inadequate for me. I do like the delay sound in the effects section, but most of the other effects I don't use. This is great for the beginner, but definitley not suitable for professional recording.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've been using the Marshall MG100HDFX for about six years - it was one of the first Marshall amps I used to record with. At the time it worked fine for what I needed it to, but moving forward it became less and less of a viable option because the sound quality just isn't all that great. Sure having a clean and dirty sound to go along with some effects is nice, but it doesn't mean that much if you don't like using them all that much. This amp is really geared towards people buying their first Marshall, or even their first amplifier, so it needs to be treated as so. I would recommend it for this use, as it is really cheap, but would not recommend this amp to advanced players or professionals.
