We were expecting a new Marshall Slash guitar amp at NAMM 2013, and indeed we discovered the 5W SL-5 combo.
The SL-5C is an all valve 5 watt amplifier with two channels; Clean and Overdrive. A single volume control for the clean takes you from authentic Slash clean to Marshall crunch. The Overdrive channel, consisting of volume and gain, nails the AFD style tone and more.
Features:
- Power: 5W
- Three ECC83 preamp valves and a single EL34 valve for the power stage
- 2 Custom Voiced footswitchable Channels – Clean & Overdrive (footswitch included)
- Green/Red Channel Status LED’s
- Full EQ section
- Presence Control
- Digital Reverb (footswitchable)
- High/Low Sensitivity Inputs
- Celestion Vintage 30 12" Speaker
- Dual Output – 5 watts or 1 watt
- 8 & 16 ohm speaker outputs
- Front panel includes Slash signature and fonts
The SL-5C will be available this spring, it’s available for pre-order ($699).
