This is by far the best overall demonstration of the various tonal capacities of this amp. Very helpful!
all demos should be like this... straight to the point, all info on screen. If you need someone to tell you the amp has EQ and volume knobs in the front and connectors in the back, you should not be playing guitar.

German Review: www.bonedo.de/artikel/einzelansicht/marshall-dsl-40-combo-test.html
One of the best video reviews I've seen. Thank you for posting.
All amp demos should be this great!
Finally a good demo from Marshall !
I have this amp. I love this amp. It's the best sounding combo I've ever had. And I run it through a 4x12 Marshall cab. What's nice about this setup is that if you're on a smaller stage, you can just use the combo. But if you have a bigger stage with more room, this combo will easily push a 4x12 no problem.
How do you run a combo through a cab like that? What ohms speakers are in the cab?
@@heythere6983 I wish this was a proper forum so I could post pics, but on the back of the DSL40CR there are several cab output jacks. My 4x12 has 4-8ohm Celestions so I just plug a 1/4" cable from the 4x12 into the jack that says 1x8 OHM. If you have two 8 OHM 4x12's (a full stack), you would plug them into the jacks that are labeled 2x8 OHM. There are also 1x4 OHM and 2x16 OHM jacks, as well as the factory 1x16 OHM jack. But you HAVE TO unplug the factory speaker from it's jack before you plug the external cab in or you'll burn it up.
@@no3rdseat awesome info! Thanks
Yeah, I sometimes run it through my 2x12” with EVs
@@roderickgful Sounds great, I'll bet?
Best demo of that amp out there indeed - Made me want to get this amp now
One of the best demos I have ever seen.
Just ordered mine! Can’t wait to get it!
I have the generation before this model, and I have the dsl 100 head, I love them both, combo for small stages 4x12 for the large stages, if any of you are thinking about getting this, I highly recommend it, this video does it justice, its very versatile and I can go from almost fender like clean to a pretty heavy tone in a matter of seconds.
Incredible demo! Subscribed!
I play the dsl15c in my house and it ROCKS!!! Every guitar plays through it great! Strat, Tele, Gretsch solid & hollow, LP, SG, EVH & Taylor 518e. It's one of my favorite amps for home or campsites with power.
Best demo of this amp I've heard so far
probably even of any amp
This edition of DSL's are awesome! I purchased the DSL 100hr... Love it!
Such a versatile amp. It will be my next one.
Best demo of this amp on UA-cam 🤙🤙
Superb demo. Great tones!
Excellent demo
best demo for this app on UA-cam
Great demo!! Covers a good variety of tones! Thnx!
This is a great resource to get started. I watched from my phone and I pinched the screen to zoom in. I didn't have any trouble making out the dials. This amp is very versatile. My only gripe with the amp is their doesn't seem to be one good setting that makes all 4 channels musical. Two is definitely feasible. If that's true I see why it comes with a two button f/s instead of a 6 button. I am curious whether anyone disagrees. Maybe I can learn something about how to set it up better.
spectacular amp, I loved the sound with the Les Paul baritone
Excellent demo so many of Marshall amp demos talk to distortion but it's so good to hear the clean tone to see what you're beginning with! Classic green channel is so crisp - not as warm as i typically play on a strat but rolling off the tone a tad would def help.
I have this amp- it can be bright if you want, but turning the master up to 10 changes everything. Also adding some Resonance and Bass plus experimenting with the "Tone Shift" button could definitely put you where you want to be.
The best reviews on youtube!
Great demo! Thanks!
I have the older model and I stuck in a G12T-75 out of an old Mesa Boogie cabinet and its amazing.
Awesome I am so sick of every amp reviewer talking about the knobs on the front panel. You focus on the sounds which is what really matters. Thank you.
Great demo.
Now THAT is how you do a demo. I will now be going to buy one ASAP!!!!!!!
Great demo! Thank you.
Thanks for included the Emulated Out tones!
Thank you for this demo it’s awesome, and your playing is great I like it! Your sound is very good, thanks to you for your times ! No talk I like :) Me I was playing so long time with Fender, Vox, Peavey, Rocktron, and modeling Amp. The list is too long… They was good but when I have tried a Marshall DSL RC Series ? It was awesome, and honestly my testing amp was a DSL RC 1w or RC 5w but I don’t remember very well, don’t Blum me sorry, I was in Germany and I was so focused on the sound and I was so captived. For me it was sounded great. Ok sounded great don’t mean nothing! What I won’t to say, the sound was organic, whith a body, brillante and alive than you don’t have with the Oda amp, it was my impression. The sound was deep, brillante and very inspiring. Tomorrow I’m going to test the DSL CR 20 W, because the store where I’m going they don’t have the DSL CR 40W, causse of transistor issues and fuc..of pandémie... That why I’m here on your topic cause I planning to buy the DSL40 CR. And in this DSL CR 40 Amp you have 2 channels, every channel have 2 differents modes, than it means you have 4 channels in one Amp this is awesome. Ok we have a little problem because the EQ is not independent on each 2 channels and is shared with the both channels (oh my god, why Marshall doing this ???) for me it’s a non sens ,ok the reverb is separated but not the EQ, and why ???, clean and High gain should be work the same Mr Marshall ! ) . Ok the reverbe is not good too because is numeric and you have to push it in the max to ear it. But, you can buy your own pedal reverb if you need a great reverb if you like reverb. Tel me what Combo amp have the best ever reverb ? But with the tow master channels you can do many things and manage the EQ. Don’t take this as a bible because I have to test this tools so long time before I buy it. You have to do the same. For me any combo in this price sound like a DSL CR 40. A good musician could find an issue to fix the EQ, Dont Make a mistake for the DSL series, because the DSL 40 C (the old one don’t have 4 channels suitable) only the DSL CR 40 (2018) have it. This is my opinion, non a commercial or some thing like this. I recommande people to go to the guitar shop, testing to by they self and approving the instrument before buying and not just listening sound compressed on UA-cam and no body know how it’is recorded . I will to say some thing other, when I was playin the amp DSL, I was astonished by the gain ant the warm the am gives to me, and this inspired my playing and I never feel this in any amp. Keep rocking !!
That’s the best sounding demo I’ve heard of this amp so far. Other demos on you tube the amp sounds like a bee in a jar
I will get mine next week. And I already own a DSL 1 CR. This little thing is very good sounding already. Can’t wait to try the 40 watt version ! Oh, and I could pair it with the 1 watt combo for very quiet playing and I would get a more voluminous tone out of the 12“ speaker this way.
Very informative video, thanks a lot.
Due to light reflection not all the positions of the knobs can be recognized, which is a pity, but nevertheless a great view into what happens when you turn which knob.
Love this AMP
I bought one and put a creamback in it. Sounds "fuller". Bottom end is much tighter. The only thing negative I can say it that it still has a bit of "fizzyness" at higher gain settings. "Real" Marshalls don't seem to be fizzy but you have to have them at sperm damaging volumes to get a good sound.
Same here. Then I got the Texas heat speaker and it’s wayyyy better
My 2020 tele deluxe sounds amazing through this little beast I gotta tells ya.
I've had this amp for a couple years and love it!
I run a L6 HXFX in the effects loop = sweet goodness.
Note: Even in the 20 watt mode it's felony loud, so buy a nice attenuator to allow you to enjoy the amps potential without disturbing the peace 🙂
Awesome job!!!!!
Sounds great.
I'm gonna get the 20 watt version! Marshall hit it out of the park this NAMM!
Fishing, Gaming & Guitars I just got the dsl20cr as well. After some reading I thought I'd immediately upgrade the speaker to celestion classic lead 80 and the tubes as well. An extra 250 dollars and I was actually more pleased with the stock tone. No need to upgrade anything with the CR seriously. As much as I hate the celestion 7080 speaker....it fits the amp extremely well and is a solid choice. Perhaps better than my classic lead 80! Just wanted to let u know, it's sweet as sugar just the way she is. No need for the fancy upgrades.
@@wchurchill419 i agree on you there 100% mate. I got the 20cr also and i feel like im in a mtv style like zone from just before 2000. Its got that classic marshall tone. Its a bargain for the price big time. I love it. And its so versatile. Hey did you find the amp grew on you in a certain way? It did for me. I was so used to solid states modelling amps that it seemed to trick my ears. I got used to the speaker and amp. I think ive nailed a good eq setting to. Just only thing is need to put a bit of gain on the classic channel for a more balssy clean tone. Its the best amp ive heard through my guitars
Fishing, Gaming & Guitars - Did you get one? I was thinking the same as you a few weeks ago, but went to the shop, played the 20 and 40 back and forth, and ended up getting the 40.
Winston C Actually I kind of like the 70/80....it is just a flat speaker and doesn’t color your sound. Makes it easier to eq different guitars imo. Although nothing sounds better than vintage 20w gb’s
Thanks so much...great sound...
I think the emulated-out could have been dialed in better. Basically, treat the emulated-out as an entirely separate entity from the main amplifier - it responds to EQ changes way differently and ignores the master-volume entirely.
What a great marriage that les paul and marshall just classic but liked the strat as well and tele for vintage tones 👍
All good! Thanks for posting. While the amp settings in this video are excellent ... some of them are difficult to see because of the lighting--seems to be a challenge with all reviews of this amp. In addition to the excellent clean settings in this video ... do you (or any followers) have another clean CLEAN settings suggestion for this amp you/they can share? For some of my band's material I need an excellent clean sound for MoTown, ballads, some pop. I have a Les Paul with this amp. I also use a Strat on occasion. Of course the dirtier OD & distortions are exactly what I wanted from this amp. Any and all suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. BTW ... please don't suggest I go buy a Fender, Katana, etc. Been there. They don't sound like Marshall's! Am I expecting too much out of this amp?
Blue Bossa sounded better on your Hot Rod Deluxe demo, but yeah, Fender cleans, so that's no shock.
But all those rock riffs sound phenomenal. Great amp, awesome playing.
Got the Limited Vintage edition with the Celestion Marshall Vintage speaker in white Vinyl
Sounds less fizzy and more Marshally then the first model. Have to say little excited about this one. Might have to sell the old tsl 100 for this
You had me at "no talking"
I have this amp and love it, a bit too loud even at 20w the volume knob is very on off. Hard to see the settings on the video the knobs are so shiny
Nice amp. Why would anyone buy a modeler for a $1000 or more when they can have the real thing for less. btw - I don't care if it was built in England, Vietnam, or another planet. It's a Marshall, it was designed by Marshall, it meets Marshall's specs, end of story.
agree ! the kemper hype is a hipster thing i guess
if you think marshall is still the same company they always were . your dreaming. time to take rose tinted nostalgia shades off. meets marshall spec yeah specs that have been dumbed down . pcb shit does not belong in an amp or guitar end of story. it makes me I'll that companies like gibson and marshall charge s premium for hand wired guitars and amps and big money at that i think it pathetic that z hand wired amp and guitar is now a luxury feature . It's a fucking guitar and amp and these prick can't be bothered to pay the extra nickel for the parts and labour to hand wire a fucking box and a little electric guitar . greed over quality and as long as we keep looking at these companies thru our nostalgia shades and continue to except their inferior products it will never change. marshall isn't great just because it's called a marshall. they still make some good amps but they make some shit ones as well. bit it's says marshall on it and that's good enough for most
Adam Watson ok, then what about THIS amp? You couldn’t tell the difference between this and a “real” Marshall.
Adam Watson you are a fucking moron. Marshall hasn't handwired their amps since the early 70s. History and blind tests have proven over and over again that PCBs sound as good or better. Reliability isn't an issue either. I own several vintage handwired pieces and they still have their maintenance issues too. Please just shut the hell up and play you're freaking guitar. It's not rocket science. They aren't curing cancer here dude, they are making guitar amps, and if they sound good..THEY ARE GOOD
it's also like $3.5k (in australia) with pre-amp. I can buy a DSL40C for like $799.00
With this amp, as you turn up the gain, the fizzyness goes up as well. I only use the classic clean channel with a high gain pedal, sounds great. Roll off the presence and treble to reduce fizz. The ultra gain channel is mushy and useless for me.
Please demo the Deluxe Reverb 65 Reissue :)
Yes Please.
Great video, no bullshit talking!
Okay, that's the sound I want. Can anyone please tell me, does the 20 watt/15 watt sound the same, but less loud? Or do they sound bad?
I have just bought one in Paraguay for $525,00. Unfortunately this is the best price you can get here in South America. What do you people from other places think?? Great amp anyway!! Sorry for bad english
Except for the cruddy emulated out sound...this is a really nice product by Marshall!
tomulator Well, remember that either studio or live engineers tend to need a flatter sound for all of the instruments so they can EQ the sounds to meet their needs. I think the emulated speaker out would serve well for that. Just pray you get a good sound guy. Haha.
I want this amp so bad T_T
Have you edited out the noise? When I'm on the Ultra Gain channel (without too much gain dialled up) it's pretty hissy and as soon as I crank anything up it gets noisy. Go to OD2 and it's very noisy. Crank up the Master and it's very, very noisy. Even with nothing plugged in to it. Have I got a dodgy one? (I bought it two weeks ago).
Nice video, i would also like to know what the song and artist is for 0:30 if anyone knows.
Does it take pedals well?
What I want to know is did Marshall fix the EQ problems that existed in the prior version. You'd set your tone for 1 channel and then switch to another and the tone would go to crap. So, can you set up a great crunch tone and go to OD1 and not need to re-EQ the damn thing?
Good question, I had the same problem with my DSL100H which I sold due to this issue. I would be very happy to buy this new dsl with the footswitchable modes. Or should I go for the new Blackstar HT MK 2? that's the question!
The eq fix and for the 40c ,or at least mine , would the new one be a louder 40 watts, mine got buried on stage by a classic 30 and couple others, so far the head is the way to go for me.
In one of the demo videos, they say they refined the EQ and made it more musical - so i am guessing they did something to fix the huge difference between clean and ultra in the older DSL's.
Most ppl did the C19 mode to their dsl40c’s, plus and a creamback does wonders too. Most ppl modded the 40c and fixed the fuzziness and the eq/volume issues when changing channels.
Could always get a midi capable eq and control the amp and eq with midi.
Are there tabs for 4:40? I figured it out by sound but it still doesn't sound right no matter how slow I play it.
Hey nice Video man_greetings from Austria. One Question: I bought the Dsl40cr same as yours, but there is a lot of fizz and that only goes away when i crank the amp. But i want to play in my apartment with a good distortion quiet without that fizzyness. WOUld it help to change the Vtype speaker to an Eminence texas heat or creamback like u have done it? Appreciate very much if you or someone knows...
What I do is put a towel in front of the speaker, it mutes the highend fizz a bit, I cant stand it. Alternative is to buy an amp that sounds good at low volumes too, like the Blackstars HT series.
@@VeeeeryyyFaaaastSlooooth Cheers mate i put a eq pedal in the loop works wonders still got my Marshall Growl;););)
SHHHHHHH no talking!
2:52 BROWN SUGAH
What was the bit played on the 335
Can some help me decide on a DSL40CR vs a Hot Rod Deluxe IV? I play so many different genres, I love a crisp clean but I love my high gain too. Anyone experienced both. I play through a Les Paul and Strat
If you play different genre,i suggest the dsl,the overdrive on the hot rod is not terrible and as you can hear,the clean on the marshall is ok!
I'm 2 years late, but better late than never for the other people watching. They are in two completely different leagues, I bought both, played with both, and instantly sent the Fender back. The Fender was horrible, the amp buzzed really badly even at low volumes, so perhaps I got a lemon. But in terms of tone and quality it was pretty good, nice cleans, very smooth and warm, but a bit on the "dark" side so to speak. The Marshall is a lot more "lively" and active. I think it has a much better speaker in my opinion. The A Type has a weird shrill to it on certain notes that I don't like. I preferred both the clean and the distortion on the Marshall. Something about Marshall just has a special tone I love.
In terms of build quality absolutely no contest, the Fender covering, the grill, the tolex, the stripped screws, the body shake, the back panel that never fully tightens, etc. The list goes on and on. The Marshall is built like a tank, even if I hadn't gotten a lemon the Fender reeked of poor quality craftsmanship and shoddy manufacturing. I probably will never buy another Mexican made Fender product after that POS.
In terms of the clean tone, which is what I chase after, the Marshall is brighter, and somehow fatter on the bottom end but without being harsh, though it has more compression than the Fender.
The Fender clean tone is a bit more dynamic despite being much less bright, so no compression issues there, and with the bright switch engaged it's not quite as dark, a little better. But it still lacks clarity, if you want the best pure clean tone get the JC40 or JC120 IMO.
So overall for my test the Marshall was better in every category with no competition whatsoever. The Fender just sounded like your average old tube amp, kind of warm and flat. The Marshall is alive and begs to be played loud to allow it to sing its beautiful British voice.
@@JoshChristiane Hey nice Video man_greetings from Austria. One Question: I bought the Dsl40cr same as yours, but there is a lot of fizz and that only goes away when i crank the amp. But i want to play in my apartment with a good distortion quiet without that fizzyness. WOUld it help to change the Vtype speaker to an Eminence texas heat or creamback like u have done it? Appreciate very much if you or someone knows...
@@musik4life24 That will depend on what the fizz is coming from. Is it coming from the preamp, the power amp stage, or the speaker? You'll have to isolate that issue first. My guess is that it's coming from the preamp, in which case you'll have to keep messing with settings to get the right sound if possible. Another option is to just go all clean, super clean, and buy a distortion pedal if you're unhappy with the distortion built into the Marshall. Marshall's distortion preamp at low volumes really doesn't sound that good. So my advice is to pump the preamp stage really hot, and bring the master volume down (the right volume knobs). If you're still unhappy with the distortion then definitely recommend a distortion pedal, buy yourself an R2 or some nice pedal like that and you'll get a sweet tone.
If I'm wrong and it's actually coming from the speaker then I'd advise you put in a super clean speaker with great headroom, in your case I'd put in a Celestion Lead 80 as that speaker is ultra clean with massive headroom, sounds great at low volumes especially. The creamback would be the next best bet, but I wouldn't put the Eminence in. You want something ultra clean and clear at low volumes, some speakers are muddy at low volumes and only become clear at higher volumes, kind of a weird effect.
Hello! I have a question for you. Is it possible to connect a phone with a backing track to an amplifier and play the guitar at the same time?
Yes 👍
Can anyone tell me what song that is at 3:34? Thanks
Was ist fur Music 0:30-0:45 ?
good video! thank you for not jibber-jabbering.
Great amp….☮️🎶🔛🌎
What will you choose this marshall dsl 40cr or fernder bassbraker?
Christian Nueva what kind of music do you play?
@@yonikup2865 i like the sound of slash and Joe bonamassa.
Christian Nueva easiest answer ever. Go for the dsl40c, both of them are well known marshall users and you will get their tone with a marshall better than a fender (To get a slash sound on the dsl i would reccomend going to lead 1 with the gain at 10oclock, bass at 4.5 mids at 6.5 and treble at 6 and some reverb, and if you can afford one, a boost pedal like a seymour duncan pickup booster or a ts9 copy. Slash is my favourite guitarist as well =D )
@@yonikup2865 thanks man!!
BassBreaker apparently is a total bitch to fix. You might want to check out the videos in this regard. Basically if anything breaks, you are throwing it away.
Can't decide between this Marshall, fender hot rod deluxe, or even blues Jr. Gonna be playing with a Boss GT100.
Sean Armao if you want a good gain sound, this Marshall destroys Fender.
I have Traynor YCV40. Got used $250. Even had upgraded tubes to JJ and speaker to Classic 30. Equivalent to fender hot rod deluxe.
Sean Armao dude go play them,at the guitar store. Marshalls and fenders are very distinct sounding amps. I love the Marshall sound more
I was going through the same thoughts between Fender and Marshall. I thought I was originally leaning towards the Fender amps, but after hearing the higher gain sounds of the Marshall and how terrible the Hot Rod Deluxe sounded, I was sold on the Marshall. My only question now is between the DSL40cr and the 20 watt head or combo. I think for $150 more the DSL40cr makes more sense especially since I would probably want to immediately switch out the 70/80 speaker so there is the $150 difference. I think I would seriously need an attenuator for either amp anyway.
"Clean, Crunch; OD1 and OD1"? OD2 I think. Nice demo, anyway.
You´re Right! :-)
Hope can have 20W test OR AUX play music test please :) i look forward to !!!!!!!!
saw on another demo, if you get the 6 button foot switch, the 4 settings can be called up individually, basically making the amp a 4 channel. One button for switching between Mater 1 & 2, and the other for FX loop ON/OFF
Do I need another amp. No. Will I buy a DSL40CR. Probably
Which one would you choose between this one and DSL100Hr ?
They are essentially the same thing except the DSL100HR is a Head that goes on top of a Cabinet. You cannot use the DSL100HR without a cabinet. The marshall DSL40CR is a combo amp which means it has all the tones of the DSL100HR with it's own amplifier. Now you can use the DSL40CR as a head all you would have to do is unplug the Speaker from the amp and then plug in the Cabinet in either the 8ohms or 16ohms Plug in jack. You do have to find a cabinet that matches its ohms so be wary of that. The DSL100HR has more watts than the DSL40CR so it will be louder when plugged into a Cabinet but you cannot play at bedrooms levels or even close to that unlike the DSL40CR which can be played at bedroom levels and small to medium sized gigs. Hope this helped!
Canadian Weeb Helped a lot ! I’ve been searching this kind of comment but didn’t find .Thank you so much !
00:59
Hi a friend has one of these and srtuggles to get the sound he is after. Here is a comment he has in a guitar forum we frequent. Maybe you can answer how YOU get the un muddy sound he seems to get. Anyway his words "Watch this video..at around 4:10, he ups the gain on red channel, eventually going all the way to 3'O-clock.
There is NO WAY IN HELL this amp will run like this in stock condition!!! I played through 3 different DSL40C's at Guitar Sinner and ALL of them behave just like mine. Don O's DSL40C was tested (graciously by him on my behalf) and his responds in the same fashion - gain past 12'O-clock is total muddiness."
nighttrain022 If you’re playing with very high output pickups that may happen...modern amps have so much gain on tap you don’t need them anymore. Even a JB is too much. With my DSL or 5150 I think that the 59 or pearly gates sounds the best. If you want to go the high output route though emg’s will sound very open and articulate
Is this the re-voiced newer model?
Yep
I don't know if to go with the 20W or 40W. I live in an apartment with 3 other roommates and we're all college students. Is the 40W ridiculously loud or can it be brought down to a low volume without interfering with tone too much? I currently play through a Blackstar Id: Core series 20W, but I've been wanting a tube amp for so long.
The DS40C has a switch to bring it down to 20W. Mine is still pretty loud though. It doesn't sound terrible even at "lowish" volumes though.
unlike the last dsl 40 the new version has master volumes as well which gives you alot more options for low volume playing.. I have a 50 watt tube amp and because it has a master volume along with a channel volume like the new dsl 40 has i can get killer bedroom tones at low volume.
Adam Watson Dang seriously? If you're right, then I'm definitely getting the 40W.
You could get an attenuator too
I just got this amp. It’s basically a jcm2000 that sounds great at any volume. Very apt. friendly.
This amp only sounds good on clean. Otherwise it has to be so loud to sound good
2:22
Now I wish I’d bought one of these and a strat instead of the Epiphone LP and the Boss Katana 100. That amp is so damn confusing (effects) and the cleans aren’t as good. My LP is my first guitar and I’m still just learning but that strat sound out of this Marshall sounds amazing
Hey man, don’t knock the Katana, i own a Katana Artist (much more similar to a DSL40) and a DSL40 and The Artist sounds killer! If you treat it like an amp without all the effects (with the exception of reverb cause that’s piss easy) then you can get some great tones.
Eros Medina what’s the difference between the artist and the regular 100? I don’t have an artist.
Dont feel bad. Boss amps and Epiphone Les Paul's can sound great. Practise is the real way to sound great.
doesn't actually let anyone know what the amp sounds like but good video
I can’t see the settings on the amp so the demo is not real helpful
WTF?! Dude! Set the video to 1080p
I'm sad to say that after a lengthy research process, I can safely say that I don't like this amp. I hope I'm wrong in a few days when I actually go shoot it out at the store. But so far, I'm leaning against it.
so did you like it?
@@motothumper5598 Not really. I went into the store expecting to buy a DSL. But it just didn't click with me. I tried everything, but I just couldn't get a tone I liked.... until I turned it up. But it was way too loud by then, so I decided against it. I ended up buying a Bassbreaker 45, it sounded right to me from the very beginning. Funny enough, it sounds closer to the Marshall I like (JTM ish) than the DSL.
No talking is good... but lil bit bored there is no guitar break to the floor or maybe amp speaker sweeping rip off
I disagree with the no talking is better (but not to much).
E
nobody cant dial this good amp well??
?
No fx loop
Mark Anthony yes there is.
Great demo video!
As for the product, I am a bit disappointed. Why? The Drive channels sound so "Fuzzy" and have a lot of "Dirt" in the tone. Add to that, these are made in Vietnam...For me a British amp shall be made in Britain only! With respect to all the other countries on this planet.
It would cost 3 times as much for the same thing. Hardly matters where a product is made any more.
Nizar Odeh well blackstar are former Marshall engineers they hated where marshal was going so they made more affordable amps they’re 🇬🇧 as well
Blackstar are made in China or Korea.
Garbage i trusted marshall on a jm combo :( reverb bite the dust and sounded awful after numerous times to the shop ... turned it for a real amp fender hot rod... the marshall combos suck
bobby deere Fender Hot Rod Deville' s are overly loud pieces of junk that can't be gig volume controlled. Sorry, thanks for playing though
Someone help me, I think this sounds like garbage!
@the supernatural a 50w 5150 head helped me..
@the supernatural Different but the green channel can perform everything the Marshall can & then some in terms of cleans. I'm happy.
ill stick with my line 6 spider 5 thanks.. it does marshall better than this thing and way more..
Steve Farr UA-cam audio will never give you an idea instead go to guitar center an try it your self you will be impressed
@@pitoperez3468 i unerstand my friend, but since the old man died, marshall is not the same..
i have owned real plexis and 800's.. all great amps.. but the new stuff. not so good.. just my opinion. it means nothing.
Sounds just like a Blackstar, only not quite as good.
Your crazy, get the shit out your ears.
Blackstar do it better
