SOUNDS

it is not at all Vintage What is this scam?? is the name on the packaging of vintage, because it is more Modern than anything else, nothing to do with the JCM800, JTM45, 59SLP, 87x or Bluesbreaker
But the videos on Youtube were well it sounded good crunché, but once it's true not slap you say what's that thing? much like the Fender Vintage Modified, Vintage's argument is especially commercial
The clean is far from a Fender midrange (Blues Junior) much better than the mini Mesa Rectifier, there is a bit of presence and grain but nothing more ... what a Marshall So you see he has had to be caught on the drive and there ... we remain puzzled, wondering what they wanted to do something like the drive channel of Mesa vintage mini Correct, it is inexplicable to me I do not like, it looks like nothing, it's not spit at all is shy, even opening the volume of the HP
Fans of his vintage go your way, in any case well before the test

OVERALL OPINION

I would say just to avoid for fans like me of good old old school Marshall, who seeks after a bit of versatility there is the JVM Series offers more possibilities ... For my part I keep my JCM800 4010

UTILIZATION

There is a clean channel (no channel lead) can be saturated with the same qd boost pr only have a crunch, we can have some distortion, but not for c. (Use of distortion pedals with) When I plug in my top dist0 c something sick!

The two buttons of rglage pramp are excellent, they premettent rgler of the sound and get a personal well! ("Body" and "detail": the rule in some ways the grave, roundness, and treble lights the pramp)
With 2 switch "mid boost" and "dynamic range low / high."
A button makes prsence trs good job knowing to be discreet if you do not put excessive.

BIG plus point: the volume knob is very gradual, unlike the fender with his super strength 0.001 is direct on the volume knob ...

SOUNDS

The sound is just crystal clear, excellent, there is good seed! the lights are doing their job! ds without saturating it up the sound! and thanks to rglages "body" and "dtail" you can really sound rgler our way, great!

You can put the sound not much if you will, thanks to the volume knob trs progressive.

Frize not that good rverb ds that mounts the dry / wet.

Personally, I bcp + prfr this amp that the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe (which after my tro serious and is less prcis)

OVERALL OPINION

I did not like the Marshalls, and although I am the bleuff .... I highly recommend this amp to the vintage lamps and modern components! BRAVO Marshall ...

The Fender Hot Rod Deluxe, and even the Orange Rocker 30 (berrrkkkk) seemed to me much less prcis, etc.

I plan to buy the Marshall ... ds 1300 euros that I ...^^

This amp is a combo 2 HP 12-inch all-tube 50W, one channel.
The rglages available are few, but Winning Days is original, since it has two knobs for gain, who officiates in a low frquences (body), and the other at the top of the spectrum (detail) + a button that boust mediums (mid boost) superb! + A 2nd button which saturate the pramp (dynamic range). Followed by legalization: Bass, Medium, High, Presence, all the efficiency "Marshallian" (that is, that does not fundamentally alter the sound, whatever ...). It ends with the master volume, then the button for the determination of Reverb (numrique mulant perfectly reverb springs). Damage elsewhere, given the technology used, why not have about other preset reverb?

UTILIZATION

This amp seems at first archi-simple to use, there is only one channel. In addition when the achte nine, there is a sticker on top that gives quick explanations (in English) to start searching for the sound you want. The sound is at once the color is really the lights going out, and send!
Then when you dive into the manual (in French), we realize all the subtle concept of this amp and its versatility. I suggest you also read it is instructive trs. And indeed, once we understand the interaction between the two gain knobs, you realize the opportunities that sound research standards to our door!

SOUNDS

I use it to play rock, blues and jazz. For this kind of music it is perfect. I think it is not too suited for the mtal, trash and whatnot like that, albeit with pedals ...
I use it with a Stratocaster and a Gibson 1 / 2 box.
The clean sounds are really beautiful and you can even have them playing hard. The rhythms are funky with Stratocaster pchues, although striking the casseroles, the Red Hot arpges the clean sound is beautiful.
The sounds are great for crunchy blues and jazz solos. This amp really rpond nuances of guitar playing. It is the strong point. I encourage everyone to use the volume knob of the guitar to play with all possible colors. Russianness this level is a l. on the other hand I am not a fan of the button Dynamic Range which saturated the amplifier, but I admit not having taken too much time to explore.

OVERALL OPINION

I use intensment for 2 months now. I start well connatre and I'm really pleased.
I was looking for a one channel amp, as a fan of effects pedals. What really is the j'apprcie quality and expressiveness of the lamps you get and also versatile. On the other hand the finish of this amp is really nickel (ah, the violet color of the coating), the lamps are being protected derrire a grid, a brief exudes quality and is plutt in a new Marshall. His only default is the weight lev good 30 kilos, as I trimballe several times a week it should MRIT the guy!
I tried a Fender Hot Rod, trs attractive and seems pretty level expressiveness. I have a lot hsit but seemed less versatile. I had a Peavey Valve King test all lamps too, much cheaper, but I have not hooked too hard as his.
Of course, this amp is not given for a 50W, but the opportunities it offers are worth every penny.
With exprience, I think I would resume the same.

This is an all-tube amp with two 50-watt speaker.
It possde a single channel with 2 gain advantages: body (low frequencies) and dtail (high frquences) that can be dosed as one wants, APRS mid boost button that enhances the mdiums for his country, then the button dynamic range that is saturating the amplifier. we find the usual button to legalization: treble, middle, bass and master volume and a prsence.le reverb.on derrire panel is between a jack for the footswitch, an effects loop with two between send and return jacks with a switch 2 to cut the loop and the other to adjust the loop depending on whether one takes a system rack or stompbox effects, 2 speaker output (a dj used by 2 hp).

UTILIZATION

Systm on the single channel is very simple, you just need time to get used to the beginners.
the sound is at once the we can have a clear, lightweight crunch, big crunch, and overdrive. each sound silent to me the best I connaisent, the possibilities are endless thanks to all the knobs. the manual when it was really clear and trs clearly explains the function of each button in detail.

SOUNDS

This amp is perfect for my style of rock that is the AC / DC, but this amp has so many possibilities of rglages appropriate almost all styles except mtal apart with a p dale effect with a big distortion. I use a Gibson Les Paul guitar I like most and I get this combination with a well fat overdrive and crunch but rather crystalline clear. all sounds so good I do not have the pus dpartager! ah 'I forget to say before the gain of the amplifier can also be controlled by playing with the volume of the guitar, which offers even more possibilities.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 months and I love everything about this amp, I did not much try the amp before that because I am falling in love IMMEDIATE sound of this amp. ngatif point is the price (1300 euros) is rev up but this amp is now the only one I can use so the sound is perfect for me. with the exprience I must remake that choice and I will one day buy a stack with the 100 watt head and two cabinets with a pan shot and the other with the right pan.

I do not usually post here but believe this amp was so surprised I must say what I think ...
It is a single channel all-tube amp, equipped with 2HP 12 "which are greenback (my favorite, there's no more rock'n'roll). 50W power already is monstrous but that is very readable thanks to a knob volume very linear (not like mesa or fender).
Otherwise, read the previous opinions.

UTILIZATION

Configuration is very simple.
All knob to 12 (except the volume and reverb), we chose GAIN HIGH or LOW and it plays ... after you move the knob to see what happens, the most important being and BODY DETAIL.
The store did not give me a manual but there is no need is a simple mind-blowing.

SOUNDS

Ahhh the sound! That's why I post a notice ...
Damn it slams to a marshall.
Guitars test: Start Fender Classic Player 50, Gibson BFG.
Amp comparison, Mesa Rectifier, koch Studiotone, JCM200TSL, Fender Twin (the one from a friend)
Sounds clear with a stratum, it is super nice and clean, playing with body detail and moving from a more round (basseman style) to a more open and slamming (we approach the fender twin but not the 'match), with all possible intermediate.
The clear surpass those of JCM2000, Mesa Rectifier, they are almost as good as those of Koch and Studiotone worse than the real fender twin.
With Gibson, you must lower the body knob gains and detail if you enter directly into the crunch, but it is beautiful, less bright and pure with a good strat but this amp does very well out the character of each guitar so it noirmal. I could not believe what was said in a notice below-> get sound clean and bright arpeggios of red hot: Well no, it's not a joke, the fact that serious ca)
The crunch sound: this amp is a blues machine is mortal and is super vintage. Here is the best amp I had and try to give me like that crunch. it is pure folly. Whatever the guitar.
Big crunch (going in HIGH gain): Start with it's hard to achieve the sound to AC / DC and it's normal limits, it is not the purpose of this type of guitar. But now it is very blues and you arrive, knob of body and / or retail background in rock nice. With a Gibson, it's different, we go live rock in the register until you reach a big distortion, (damn the sound of guns, led zep, hendrix ... the whole rock and 80's is 60.70 in this amp).
While the évdemment VintageModern is that Vintage Modern and never sound like the Mesa Rectifier or Studiotone Koch.
So you will understand, I love it. Clean the lens or more well rounded, delicate crunch of the very large rock, it is rather bold and biting, all sounds are there but this will depend on the guitar to be plugged into it. The heat is there, and the greenback are incomparables.J 't use the nuances that can be playing with the volume of knob scratch because I put it to tjrs funds, but it seems that it reacts like clockwork.

OVERALL OPINION

I for 1 week.
Amps I've had quite a bit and try bcp.
I loved my opinion, some will not like. The music and sound is above all a matter of taste. Some will hate and others love it. Give it a try.
Cons:
-> Do not agree to very very large rock and metal.
-> In terms of dynamics it is below the koch, Mesa ...
-> In terms of versatility is a mychannel so it is versatile but not to be.

I tried it because he was on sale in a store zic. After hearing and considering the sale price, I cracked ... So quality / unbeatable price. The normal price, the report is good.
If I referrer this choice later? I do not know, I like to try everything, changing stuff ... but anyway I will keep it for a while.

I have gotten some time to spend with this amp and it really isn't my cup of tea. I am not really impressed with the tone of the amp first of all and second the color of the tolex is hideous. It is this purple/black color that is just goofy looking to say the least.

The tone of the amp is ok, but ok just isn't that good. I much more prefer the tone and the features of the Marshall JCM2000 DSL. That amp kills this one in my opinion.

SOUNDS

This amp is really just a mediocre amp. They are trying to mix the modern style tones with the operation of the vintage amps and I just can't get into it. The amp is not appealing in any way. I spend a good amount of time trying to get a tone that I like but it was not going to happen. I have never had this much trouble finding a usable tone with a Marshal before.

I used a PRS guitar and a Suhr modern guitar and neither one of them sounded good through it. It could very well be just my ear because a lot of guys like this amp. It just wasn't for me I guess.

OVERALL OPINION

At new these amps come in at around $1599. That is about the right price for this amp. It has a decent tone but nothing really special to my ears. I would much rather go for a Splawn Streetrod or a Budda over this amp any day of the week.

I would only recommend someone trying this amp out first before they buy. I see these a lot on the classifieds ad it seems there is a lot of turn over with these amps. Which tells me either they are flooding the market or a ton of people just don't jive with it as much as other Marshall amps.

The characteristics for, see the reviews previous ones. the only particularity is that mine is black and not purple.
I will appreciate a good tremolo over rverb.

UTILIZATION

I wanted a simple amp, "plug'n'play, with which we are not obliged to tinker 15 billion knobs and other switches to find her ... well I've used: o )
to Get You Started, we put it all 12, it adjusts the master and rverb and roll youth! then simply adjust the two knobs of Pramper as we play the guitar, and it's all good.
I t also positively surprised by the knobs in shade: i was left on the reputation of a total ineffectiveness of these rglages, they are subtle and well but now truly useful.
Only (small) BMOL: the difference in volume between the Low and High Dynamic Range, but nothing serious, especially since the amp is not designed as a 2 channel.
Cot

SOUNDS

sound, I am still amazed by the versatility of the machine.
Beautiful cleans, overdrives very dynamic, leads classic marshall, always with a great presence and warmth.

In fact, this amp is the ideal add-ins of my old classic 30 (a really good amp too, so, so, believe me: o)
O The classic is "tight" over medium, less bright and slightly less wide (only 1 HP and smaller cab), the marshall is "grotty" or fuzz when pushed. I therefore tend to use the marshall blues rock and 70's, and Peavey for his more current. but the 2 do the job!
they are complementary also because the peavey is great with humbucker pickups, much less with simple, but I find the best marshall with Strata, a tl or LP team by p90.
Finally, I rediscover some pedals that I had shelved with the classic.
So, the problem is that it starts to heavy to lug all this: o)

Another positive point, the dynamic is excellent, and most importantly, sought not fully rglage amp volume and tone from the guitar. So we move very easily from clean / crunch sound more guts simply by adjusting the volume of the guitar.

Just, and really too rverb beyond caricature of 2-3.

OVERALL OPINION

AC makes 2 months that I use, the house and RPET, not yet in concert, but the season starts again soon: o)
I never thought one day on a crack marshall. Before opting for this model, I tried a bit of everything, including:
- JVM215: very nice, but too much gas plant
- Bogner Alchemist: sounds clear and very nice crunch, but a lead channel too dark (on the MODEL testing and in-store, so not much time to refine)
- Fender 65 Deluxe Reverb RI: beautiful clear but too bright, not versatile, not at all phased by volume (not cool the house)

I also long bav on ceriatone overtone special, and the handmade amps made in France of JMH Custom Standards (these amps), but the price is not the same ...

why I chose the one? simplicity versatility, delightfully vintage sounds (I cracked when I fell in 15 seconds on the Cream sound ...), good weight / size / power, price.

It is a single channel amp, 2 gain settings / preamp 1 bass, 1 treble.
midboost, dynamic range, digital reverb, effects loop.

UTILIZATION

The possibilities are the height of his "huge". In

SOUNDS

styles rock / blues / funk it provides.
I do not think I could go back and no longer have these two settings preamps and body detail, because these two knobs can be a multitude of sounds, we can adjust these knobs depending on the guitar used, effects, or just the sound we had in mind.
You can get a good clean sound (not as good as fender), a crunch of great beauty and a great overdrive.
Low dynamic mode it sounds like a marshall plexi, clear sound when you stroke the strings with the pick and crunch when you attack stronger, this mode is ideal to put the pedals (the height of the amp please) fuzzface a good clone and you will be thrilled.
Mode high dynamic range so it can get clear sound through the preamp knobs close to 0, you can imagine the result for the preamp settings, the possibilities are enormous and the sound is always warm, vibrant with the grain marshall inimitable (though, cornell amps are you it seems better than the Marshallsound marshall, but you will not write on your Marshall amp). Definitely the best

OVERALL OPINION

marshall has now, not to mention reissues vintage.le problem is that it is very heavy (30 kg), but the sound is phenomenal with a good strat or the paul you touch the holy grail.
The value for money is very good, I bought has the time or it cost in 1300 and I got to 1000 € in my store because I prefer a good customer.
Robin Trower uses it and I do not know many guitar that sounds as good as him.
Try to adopt it. The best

It's a Marshall Amplifier lamps combo version:
Amp-preamp has two levels to choose from (a lamp is the preamplifier adds to your sound to make it more violent = HDR)
Reveb-integrated
-Master volume
EQ is a 3-potentiometers, Treble Middle Bass
- 2 gain knobs, Body and Detail (giving one of his body, the other giving the precision of the sound)
Of Middle-booster
-50 W of pure power
-2 Speakers Celestion Greenback G12C
-4 ECC83 preamp as lamps
-2 As KT66 power tubes (lamps used on the Jimi Hendrix signature amp)
-One Footswitch included to choose between high dynamic range (HDR) or low dynamic range (LDR) and the activation of the Reverb

It's simple, effective, two potentiometers gain being the base of the amp. I put 9 for the equalizer as inefficient



UTILIZATION

So in terms of use, there is no simpler, it is actually the Plug N Play, just plug in his guitar, choose between HDR or LDR , adjust potentiometers Body and Detail and then go! The advantage of this amp is that it reacts to how you attack the strings and it also reacts to the volume of the guitar

SOUNDS

I am very big sound for me, but I am versatile, I play Led Zeppelin to Black Label Society, via AC / DC, Aerosmith, Metallica ... and all this with my little Gibson Flying V
This amp I delighted! The LDR enables me to have a clean sound by turning down the volume on my guitar and adding some reverb. By enticing a few potentiometers, I start directly at the ACDC sound, a pure perfect crunch, characteristic of Marshall.
Then after I pass in HDR and it's heavy! It is accurate, it's powerful, it's good sound!
I was not entirely satisfied with the saturation am available to remedy them, so I bought an MXR ZW44 (Signature Zakk Wylde) and I'm packed!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it since summer 2010, I am satisfied vraimment!
I hesitated a lot between several models, like the Marshall haze, the Orange Tiny Terror because vraimment 2266C had a lot of power under the Tolex ...
I love vraimment both gain knobs on the amp, on the other hand is a pity they do not do it with these models a bit less power, because with this beast, you must climb to fourth for a real worthy of its name
I find that the ratio quality / price is respected, one has for his money and his ears!
I am ready to make the election again soon, besides I think the combo for sale buy the head + cabinet version.
