UTILIZATION

The manual is in English, but not really useful.
Plug your guitar and headphones, 10 minutes is set by turning the knobs comprendrer you quickly what each button, and you will enjoy finding the Marshall sound. (My guitars: Jackson of the U.S.) It sounds great with headphones quite sure correct.
You can choose between the Line Out or Pre-amp Out to connect to an AUX IN jack of an amp or a mixing desk or other. The difference: the texture of sound. In your settings ... I plugged into the AUX In an amp VOX AC1 (1 Watt) and a MICRO CUBE 10 ROLAND Watt home, and it's very nice. I have not used the effects loop, but it must do ... It's still Marshall, not to worry.

SOUNDS

Sound: A JCM800 in the pocket. May be suitable for all styles. (Coupled with a multi-effects pedals ...)
It is best to have when a good guitar. U.S. with a guitar, I sound pretty friendly, but bidoullant patards a bit, I get too fat or crystalline sounds. I find the grain of the boost a little greasy, but that did not pose any particular problem is the narrow little playing with the preamp volume and master volume. Ditto for the sound clear. Although safe when I add my effects pedals I get other colors of her, but I always seem to play with a Marshall JCM800

OVERALL OPINION

I for 48 hours and I'm very happy, it allows me to quickly play through headphones. I have an amp Marshall Valvestate 8240 (without headphones) and although I have other small amps, I wanted to buy a small Marshall, for her, mobility, and of course the headphone jack. Of blows, with the DRP-1 is more worth, and then they can even make direct recording ...
The case is metal and seems sturdy and the knobs are a bit smaller than on the amps of the same brand. Nothing to say next connection.
I recommend it to anyone who likes the sound Marshall, for direct recording, for convenience, nomadic, and power is to go, especially when the Boost are activated. Attention to the ears ...
It was the most.
Cons: Too bad the switch does not activate the foot.
The price: I found it used for just under 40 Euros, but I think it was worth about 150 Euros new. So for me it's a bargain and a good product.
I have not toured the pre-amps of this type, there's surely better and more current, but a Marshall at that price, it suits me to prepare my songs ... Especially it is quite rare and hard to find ... it looks like
