Most popular backline Rock amp for a good reason
Published on 09/30/12 at 00:18The Marshall JCM 2000 DSL 100 is a 100 Watt, EL34 based tube amp head with two channels and a comfortable variety of tones and features. Introduced in 1997, it was hailed as the next step to Marshall's famed JCM 800 and JCM 900 series. It offered clean tones, classic, plexi-style crunch, and searing high gain previously only available in modified JCM models.
The DSL 100 features two channels with two modes each, a mid scoop switch, deep switch, shared 3 band EQ along with a global master volume and presence. The DSL also features an FX loop and footswitchable spring reverb, which is controlled independantly on each channel by Reverb A and Reverb B controls.

Introduced in 1997, it was hailed as the next step to Marshall's famed JCM 800 and JCM 900 series. It offered clean tones, classic, plexi-style crunch, and searing high gain previously only available in modified JCM models.
The DSL 100 features two channels with two modes each, a mid scoop switch, deep switch, shared 3 band EQ along with a global master volume and presence. The DSL also features an FX loop and footswitchable spring reverb, which is controlled independantly on each channel by Reverb A and Reverb B controls.
UTILIZATION
Channel 1 offers two modes-clean or classic crunch- at the flip of a switch.
Channel 2 is the Ultra channel, dishing up two savage levels of hotrod Marshall high gain.
In addition to the two channels and mode switches, there's also a Deep switch, which is essentially a pre-set resonance control, to add clean lowend punch. There's also a Mid scoop switch, which does exactly what it says, and creates a huge dip in the midrange curve, perfect for that scooped tone Dimebag enthusiasts love so much.
The channels are switchable via a single Marshall-style footswitch. The channels as well as the reverb can be switched with a Dual footswitch, or two single footswitches.
Obviously, with both channels sharing an EQ, some tweaking is required to get a good tone from both channels if you will be using them both. Otherwise, what might sound great on the clean channel might be too dark or boomy on the lead channel... you get the picture.
SOUNDS
Great tones are considerably easy to dial in on the DSL. With all controls at 12 O'clock, the clean channel produces a nice, workable clean that isn't too flat or bright. It's one of the best clean tones Marshall has ever produced, but it's still a Marshall clean, and it won't sparkle and shimmer like a Fender. Turning up the gain pushes the clean tone into low-volume JTM45 territory. Engaging the crunch switch brings about the signature Marshall Plexi crunch, and does it in convincing fashion.
The Ultra Channel aims to produce and surpass levels of gain that players had already getting by hacking up their JCM 800's for years. And in this regard they succeeded quite well, though in more recent years tastes in high gain may have shifted away from what the DSL brings to the table.
That being said, there are a tremendous variety of tones available simply by altering the gain, and using different guitars. An overdrive pedal also helps to cut some of the muddier lowend frequencies and peak the treble response.
The major issue with the DSL was lowend response. It was indeed muddy for a high gain amp, and the deep switch made the lowend very boomy.
Treble response on the high gain channel is also an issue, as it can be a bit tinny and fizzy with most EQ settings.
OVERALL OPINION
The DSL 100 can be had on the used market for well under $1000, and for this price point its a great investment.
The tones available in the DSL and many and varied, although its not without its issues, as mentioned above. The FX loop and reverb (which is solid-state driven) also leave something to be desired, though not altogether unusable.
There are some reliability issues with certain runs of the DSL 100, and these are all well documented on various forums, but fortunately there is also a wealth of information on how to address these issues.
Overall the DSL 100 is almost a mandatory piece to have in your collection if you're a hired gun who plays everything. It approximates many classic Marshall tones without hauling out your vintage JMP's or JCM 800's, and it also covers a variety of tonal ground.
I'm very excited to see what the new 2012 Marshall DSL 100H brings to the table.See less10 - MGR/The Mr Chris Sven

Published on 11/01/05 at 15:00Been playing in and out of bands for 15 years (wow that long!) mainly metal from Iron maiden to Joe Satriani.

Superb, everything is on individual PCBs which simply unplug so you can solder new components if you know what you are doing 9I worked it out with a cheap multimeter, its not rocket science here!), even the PCBs are cheap direct from Marshall, the main one that hold all the valves is only £74 + VAT @ 17.5%. Oh and you can easily swap valves to get you own custom sound, without breaking the bank!
Great amp head, goes one step further than a JCM900 but to be honest I don't have much use for the extra gain over the JCM900 s the extra distortion means you loose some of the intonation of your guitar, (and yes I do play thrash and crave deep distortion), its an amazing piece of kit, well put together and puts out enough volume for any venue.. do what I did, get 2 and run them in stereo off Boss chorus and delay pedels.. it'll blow you away!

Marshall DSL 100 Head
Published on 09/09/03 at 15:00At the time i had a valvestate head and saw this in LUKES GUITARS Ramsgate for £300 so i just got it and have never looked back.
This is a no fuss amplifier that can recreate tones going back to when the electric guitar was first born to the more modern sounds of today. Its got great power and the sound (i feel) is alot more convinsing than the mesa's that youll find out there.
Perhaps it could have done with a bit more versitility on the back, ie direct line outs etc like its younger brother Tsl.
Faultless
Kick ass valve tone in a convincing, no fuss package.

My Les Paul Standard sounds great with my Gibson / Bill Lawrence "The Original"
There are better as Plexi or Mesa Boogie, but it is more expensive.
This is the Marshall's what they say and it stands even with closed eyes. APRS, there are several catgories Marshall sound, and with more dollars I would lean towards the Plexi. Bcp but it too expensive.
The 2000 dsl is a perfect compromise for sound rock bottom and your wallet. As against less like the STL because I'm not Metal but Hard.

UTILIZATION
This head is very simple to use.
HP is plugged correctly (impdance 4, 8 or 16 Ohms), the guitar and you can then start.
The handling of all is very simple. It RULES gain and volume on each channel DSIR, the qualisation (some might find too bad there have only qualisation ...), and LET'S ROCK!
Both channels are switched at the foot of course, and the rverbe with the supplied footswitch.
However, the damage boost Submitted on each channel is not switchable by footswitch, such as it is impossible to pass a clean crunch a lightweight (both on channel1) ...
For this, there are the TSL!
SOUNDS
By starting on channel 1, the clean sounds are good for the trs tonnament Marshall. trs crystalline sound, even with a certain amount of gain (my guitar is also in the EMG team ... it's mean!). This gives all of the same crunch as a lightweight Exceeds 3 / 4 of the knob.
Pressing the small switch "boost" from the channel, and we pass the "big" crunch. L also, the sounds are excellent, and turning the gain, one passes easily from bluesy sound a saturation type AC / DC. Trs Rock N Roll!
We then go to in the second channel. In this channel, we go on a dj High gain distortion. The again, it trs Rock N Roll, and there are sounds of the era Marshallian trs of JCM800. Something to take to Slash! For cons, the qualisation on this channel is not effective ... trs damage.
Pressing the switch "boost", it adds a small amount of gain that will not bring me anything ... shame, because this channel does not play with the big sounds of Neo metal (such as Mesa Rectifier or Peavey Triple X), trs fashion today (Nu metalheads, go your way!)
Cot dynamic is excellent! The amp really Ragit all the nuances of the game gives mdiator! harmonics come out with an ease dconcertante. Cot attack, there again, it is straightforward (there is no impression of choking on the strings as STL ...)
OVERALL OPINION
I possder before this head another head TSL60. I m'tais jur yet never to play on a Marshall, but when I try this head, I cracked!
A dynamic die for, this Ragit really touch your strings.
Against damage that this does not head in the course of other amp "High gain" style of Mesa Recto or Peavey Triplpe X because it does not play with the big riffs well fashion this time ... For this, we must invest in a good pedals to qualisation INSRE in the effects loop, see a good multi purpose.

SOUNDS
For my part I play mostly Blues, Rock'n'roll, or Garage-Pop (o the purchase of a Fender Bassman soon ...). Has used this amp with a Start and a simple three US Squier Strato 1 double / 2 singles. Clean channel the sound level is very well especially Dfine CRYSTAL! as well as on the Squier Stratocaster (Start with the well-sr US sounded terrible ...): funk, pop or even Gentillet blues ballad, the channel adquate. Pressing the 'tit button transformer and go to the crunch, playing with the gain knob gives a sound palette consquente enough, the lightweight crunch for beginners in many night to crunch pr feel for the blues-by-alcohol-who-is-crying, with a well-british rock, but as always well Dfine trs (very important).
Peton you type the password and the second channel to the more muscular Reserved OD1 Previous in continuity with more gain (very British) and the OD2 end to end on his worthy Angus. Two channels were revised the essence of British rock and hard rock.
INTERESTED also the Presence knob that allows the pallet yet taler. To finally arrive at the two little buttons magic. The first, "Tone Shift", once triggered provides a good sound to go specially ct heavy-metal (Submitted medium well, sound like Iron Maiden CHARACTERISTICS), id ale for mold-hairy balls. And finally the deuxime, "Deep Switch" is the big + of this amp and it gives a much warmer sound by boosting the bass and littralement attention to neighbors, ideal for hairy - the-guitar-that-frle-les-pins.
To conclude I would say that sounds this amp is made for guitarists fairly eclectic, seeking a distortion possdant a powerful but well Dfine and sublimely clean clean channel to break down the girls. However, it is clearly dominant rock: british / hard / heavy metal and even same kind Gentillet RATM (lover of death or thrash metal with this amp is not against you, the sounds are much too good). You rock your lover or MUSCL blues this amp is for you.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it since September 2004, he followed me for a few rptitions and made a lot of jealous. + Much of this amp is its clectisme rock'n'rollien, it can also allow guitarists to find their sound without having to add distortion pedals derrire 36. I sell it as a given that I have found my sound (more blues / rock 'n'roll / garage), so I'll point me to a Fender Bassman that Specializes in this kind of sound ( with a Roger Mayer Voodoo Boost derrire and will give a Crybaby!). The only complaint I have this amp is a lack of lgre me clean, it is more the type to have all the sound just rock and do Specializes in none. But that's what many guitarists research, I would therefore 8 / 10 for overall score (7 / 10 for me, 9 / 10 for everyone to strut my idiot guitarist DLIR).
If you try, contact me, I sell it alone or with an HP Marshall 2x12 ", which is more than enough to take a whole group all by himself ...See less00 - SpanghyPublished on 01/16/06 at 02:10 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Everything has more or less t said before.

Last positive: the button at Marshall Prsence traditional but still useful.
In the end, thanks mainly to favorable 'Deep' which allows you to forget the common problem of legalization.
UTILIZATION
One thing is clear: do not buy this amp for playing at home.
It really is the ultimate scne amp that needs a lot of volume to show its worth in the end & it has a cot frustrating in the sense that the volume Necessary for it to sound property is approximately the same maximum volume above which you have to put the caps.
Then, for what is easily obtain a good sound, I do not see how you can sound evil with such hardware, for simplicity I will say that transcribes Fidler that comes from the guitar, so s' there is a problem of his, think plutt change guitar.
SOUNDS
Four sounds, two per channel: a clean, a crunch, a light OD, OD at least one light
This is one of the strong points of the amp: none of the four sounds was put cot t compared to other, no weak point.
Forcment both gender Metall, I tend to abuse the fourth of four sounds deficits with much pleasure, but I'm glad the other 3.
The clean channel is chalereux it Ragit trs well touch your rope, your attack, be it clean or crunch, it might be a bit prettier, but is really the quality besides, it is sufficient and it's really not even bother to load the sound effects of all kinds.
The saturation is good trs, more type-Rock Hard Rock Metal that, but it's really a pleasure, the sound is trs prcis in the high end of the handle and also you have not 36 effects need to embellish the thing, there's a lot of gain, the sound is more powerful qu'aggressif.
The main strength: the amp retranscit trs well as the energy you put into your game, sutbtilits the attack, the mute, I was normment I like, but I think that a suit every game.
I think that beyond the Hard & Metal, if you have the blues rock that sounds to the SRV or ZZ Top or sth of the Lucky Peterson, the receiver can give you satisfaction because it is really versatile.
I will rpter but overall, qq is the style, you will find if you have a game nergique.
OVERALL OPINION
Well, I know it is customary today to criticize Marshall to say that it has-been and that Exceeds 46,000 for other brands, but you will understand, I'll go against the current.
This product I bought recently, my eyes is proof that the brand has to question, correct past mistakes and find a range of modern sounds while remaining what Fidler has made the brand.
It's simple, warm, powerful amp live par excellence.
When intgre price in the Decision, the choice becomes empty for me, this price can not be the best, and then 15w combo
"With the exprience, you do again this choice?"
My only regret is not having done more than tt.
In the end, 10/10 if one takes into account the price and sth more difficult to quantify: the pleasure is mine o when I press the big red button.See less10 - sorgen :shoot:Published on 02/18/06 at 04:18 (This content has been automatically translated from French)100 Watt All Tube Head:

The clean sound is really good for the trs marshall, it will be worth, however, never a clear and fender's good, it's not what you asked! That those who want a sound achtent fender fender! The others, by the good soup! (It's easy right?)
The crunch is uncompromising: MONSTROUS, a crunch of madness for a good old blues or old ACDC.

Disto 1: for me is the best sound of the amp, which is what I like the marshall, hoarse, dirty, trs "medium", even with a little bit of gain is wonderful. Fans of Guns, we start by two, this is a happening!
Disto 2: it is very well but much less than 1 prcise, then should not grow either! It will be perfect for the nanmoins mtal trs trs heavy.
Deep down adds a punch to the sound incredible, I am now almost more bass my bass!

The only weak point is the 3-band equalizer for the 2 sections. It is impossible to have a DIFFERENT SETTING THE tonality between the channel (less insrer an equalizer in the external effects loop and activate the tone shift).
For me, it is not a default but a quality because I like my sound and overall tonal does not change between clean / crunch and distortion.
This is a default for some quality for all guitarists who likes to have a sound and well homogne Dfine one channel to another.
UTILIZATION
Say nothing of the cot it's Marshall.
It plugs, turn a few knobs of Tone earnings, volumes, we bypass the standby and off you go.
Ideal for live or studio if you have a rock sound without artifice, the head is not so heavy (21 Kg when same) and fits most speakers.
Moreover, it is a heavy duty head: it can accidentally fall from the cabinet when one of your friends is the clown on it, well it still works! Do not overdo it either!
SOUNDS
To put in a clear, if you do not like Marshall's, go your way!
Only the clear sound appear different the usual false Marshall crunch:
with the JCM 2000 DSL 100, you can REALLY have a real clear sound, provided they do not gain too much push and play with the volume (at max gain of 4 and 8 of volume).
This is a good enough to be rare among Marshall said.
In terms of style, I play mainly saturated and my field is prdilection punk, hardcore and stoner mlo.
The ease of rglages allows a well Dfine, harmonically rich and incisive in any channel.
The clean is amazing, the grain crunch possde a pretty clean up mis-stroke win at the dj del is tilted in overdrive.
The ultra will gradually gain a style of hard rock AC / DC punk / hardcore fawn Rise Against and others.
The Ultra 2 is a gain dfferlante low (perhaps too be), ideal for the current type styles nomtal condition using a large speaker that supports low.
Understand that this type of amplifier used with a guitar powerful enough dowry microphones (Epiphone SG with Gibson pickups, LTD Team EMG) for styles that distortions j'voque above.
The dtraqueurs will tell you that Marshall JCM 2000 The series is sorely lacking in personality. This is not the case, it's just the standard set in the Marshall got the day.
The only Remde to judge is to try the lamps with good quality type Groove Tube and Marshall cabinet.
For fans of mtal (death, extreme, doom and go your way), it is important to consider the choice of baflle too.
I use this head with a Lead 1960, which is the IDAL saw my style zic. Understand that if your branch plutt distortion with low standards, it is a cabinet type spcial green back or v30 you need.
OVERALL OPINION
The very first time that I test I wondered if Marshall had been JCM 900 volumes. C'tait in a studio or RPET the amp was running 10 hours a day, so much tell you that the State has played on the lamps and the overall sound of the head .
Let me tell you that store is another effect. Mount it on a silent green back in the test, so a help to have a big sound, at least, has sent more than one volume with RPET probably less strong (the State of the lamps changes everything).
It is a sturdy amp with real and unique grain Marshall, it is both in the studio or live. And especially the report qualitprix is standard.
Be well head if you have the opportunity to test it, the lamps and the speaker make a diffrence.
While it is not a grain inimitable AC-30 or a Plexi, but this amp is an all-terrain plutt rock saturated not just dot dnu of personality Sound Marshall (APRS UK we like the sound or not, but that's another dbat).See less10 - cloud2158Published on 12/23/06 at 13:11 (This content has been automatically translated from French)...

Finally, the distortion is not clean at last what I expect from a distortion is that it takes much treble and the medium but it sounds not broullon ...
in my opinion the sound is not good marshall REPRESENTATIVES this is rather filled with a sound that approaches a mesa or other full of hardcore korn finally has this kind of distortion in the bass heavy and powerful c is the kind. enin, marshall fan go your way, a fan of mesa or other barbaric Throw away your amps on it.See less02 - innocent.moonPublished on 04/25/08 at 08:11 (This content has been automatically translated from French)Marshall 100W lamps above the only effect is a reverb (this is not a multi purpose I wanted ...)

OVERALL OPINION
So long ago I had a marshall AVT 100, it was a disappointment because I was playing metal, the gain was still at the bottom which resulted in an impressive breath, I opted for the Randall Warhead, but too complex to settle for me ^ ^ and the sound is very cold and synthetic ... The Marshall 2000 is impecable I play it for a month, what I like most about it is the sound it gives off no matter the channel ... I like the least? his face, I find it too bad a marshall j'aimme bcp the aesthetical There's so Randall's compare is not the same kind ... (After you like it or not ^ ^)
value for money? I got a € 900 so I think it's impecable and I would do without this choice hesitate with the experience (I put nine because it is damn ugly!)See less00 - Doctor.Ketzer

- The settings are fairly accurate and sufficient basic and widely: some argue that the equalization for common 2-channel lead 1-2 and clean / crunch is a failure, I tend to say that it is almost an asset. .. matter of taste ... and its purpose is not to repeat the perfect amp but just to make an objective.
cl: the characteristics of a true Marshall, no frills Electronics: a simple but effective setup: 10/10
UTILIZATION
- Simple setup, no need for manual
- Preheating necessary, the amplifier is at maximum capacity when the volume of the amp is pushed at least 2 / 10 in distortion or 4 / 10 in the clear after a little playing time No need for heating in the same room temperature's rising!
SOUNDS
- Depending on the settings, the sound is very good and sharp, which will not please everybody, but ... when you buy an amp at this price, it is necessarily what we know s wait if it's really a big risk expensive ...
- The sound is beautifully clear right from the reputation of another Marshall
- The crunch is very characteristic, nothing is to prove its quality
- The sound a lead results in an overdrive and distortion sharp, very precise harmonics fuse is dynamic. A gain pushed (8-9/10), trashy sound. This is the most successful channel with the crunch and satisfy rock fans like me.
- Small problem: the lead channel 2 is I find not particularly convincing: a channel is saturated for a modern sound (néo-métal. ..) but you lose a lot in cutting edge and dynamic to acquire a heavier sound but less I find beautiful: much push the lead by pushing the lower one!
- Shift knobs and deep tone are especially valuable in its clear, seem less necessary in the other channels I prefer digging in the midrange EQ, matter of taste.
cl: 9 / 10 for rock, a sound authentic, real Marshall, only the lead channel 2 is a little disappointing.
OVERALL OPINION
- I use it for a year and I am 100% satisfied: it fills my expectations. it is used to play rock / metal 80/90/moderne years and shows quite up to par.
- The lead channel is a really excellent and allows fleurter with sounds of the type of trash Gun'n'Roses up Metallica.
- I have not tried hundreds of tube amp before buying it but I do not even try to learn more because I wanted the sound vrément.
- Nine is so expensive, but the lamp of a quality unmatched by any transistors / modeling. Other benefits: influt guitar on the amp and the amp influt the amplified sound of the guitar ... This is not the case for modeling: if you plug a guitar and a low end gibson: the same will be made for the amp models the starting signal: it spoils the sound of the instrument. With the lamp, you get distorted between the perceived quality of your guitars ...
- I used is identified at 650 euros with 1960 AV cabinet, I thought it was a joke when they saw the price ... and non-bah! I had a huge chance that I took from the hip! So at that price, it is clear that it is totally unbeatable!
- Even if I buy the amp new, I would without hesitation.See less20 - CaporalPatin
