The amp actually has channelbleeding, when youre in the OD1 Channel, you can crank the Classic Volume and get a fuller and thicker sound! Give it a try if you didn't know that yet.
Thanks for sharing. My 1998 DLS 100 jcm2000. one of my favorite amps. Have had to replace the main motherboard because of the bias drift issues. The new board fixed it and it's still rocking. I've mod it a bit. New plexi spec output tranny, choke and a few changes to the circuit. still one of my favorites.
Hello there Todd .. just got a 2003 year DSL 50 .. never been touched inside for a great price .. this amp is awesome ! Love the green crunch channel with my pedals.. great demo, thanks for the inspiration !!
As of November 2021, I got my first valve amp and it was a JCM2000 DSL50. Classic Gain with the boost engaged or OD1, gains and volumes on 7, Bass on 3 with the deep switch engaged, Middle and Treble on 7. Absolutely bloody glorious! Next on the list of Marshall's is a 6100LM and a JCM900 Mk3!
Also a fun way to use the crunch channel is a platform for fuzz! I use a Coopersonic Germaniac fuzz with a Ricochet on the Oct+dry into the crunch channel, cranked it's absolutely hellish.
Hi. I preorderet mine in early 97. And got my hands on one of the first to come to Norway. Its still my go to amp in all settings. The only thing i change in the different situasjons (blues rock country pop ….) is the guitar. E 0:420:45 verything is basically on 12 o clock, and Tc elecronic reverb and delay in loop, and a boss cs 3 as a boost in front . And Thats it, has been like that since 97. Love it.
The DSL50 is one of those amps I want to call under-appreciated, but purple knew it was badass even 20 years ago LOL! I had a modded TSL100 and wished I had just gotten a DSL50 instead.
You described perfectly why I only use the green channel on my 100W version. With a well stocked pedal board in front (and the effects loop) you do almost all rock things well. I also run a 300W Weber attenuator with it to make it more volume friendly.
Great tones and playing as always Leon. This is my favorite Marshall amp. The green "clean" channel on this amp actually sounds very similar to a 1971 Fender Silverface Twin Reverb but running into a Marshall 1960A 4X12 extension cabinet gives a different tone profile than the 2X12 Fender Twin cabinet with JBL D120's. I run my 1960A cab with a combination of T-75 and V30 speakers and it's a great clean tone and edge of breakup tone that I use for super wet effected sounds. It works well in a mix and blends really nicely into a track without fighting to sit on top of a mix, like some other amps do.
@@LeonTodd Agreed! Most of the time when I use the Green channel, I only mic up the T75. It would be really cool to see a Marshall DSL100 JCM2000 Green channel model added to the Axe-FX roster of amp models at some point. I believe that it will eventually become known as one of Marshall's top 3 classic amps along with the SLP100 and the JCM800. I think it's a superior sounding amp to the JCM900, JMP-1, JTM-45 or any of the JVM series amps. Joe Satriani used the JCM 2000 for many years and still uses it, often preffering it's tones over his own signature amps or 5150's that he's known for. Satch also lives Rockman and SansAmp PSA-1. They all have their place, but the JCM2000 is a real classic too and has a very natural breakup and great tone for rhythm guitar tracks.
@@LeonTodd I have 4 g75 uk in a 4x121960A stock 1996 made. I was thinking that love the sound, but g75 is not the first choise for people. Did you tested this with X pattern v30 too? I'm thinking about this, but really in doubt, cause its sound amazing with g75. Like ou said, maybe jcm 2000 was made for g75.
Sounded really great! My biggest inspiration of all time, Kenny Håkansson, uses this amp with pedals. Seems to work really well with a Roger Mayer Voodoo 1 or an MXR Dist+.
Wrong. MxR' distortion + ARE only working with vintage style amplifiers. If you double electrical things you get cancellations. It's foolish to double.
I just got one of those 2000 50 watt head.I got lucky that all the chinese tubes were gone.It' all JJ's pre's and power tubes.Settings.presence 6,treble 0,mids 7,bass 2,master vol 7 and the classic gain chanel on full blast.Works amazing with the JHS AT distortion/overdrive pedal.Just set it like Andy does and you home free.
Great Leon. Seems here's this mythology that there hasn't been any good Marshall's since the JCM800's, 30th Anni and Jubes. Like the EMG vid you did a bit back, many of those who pan the modern Marshall's probably haven't even tried one. Caveat - had a TSL100 for a couple of months to give it a chance - not the best amp I've owned (being kind).
I love the DSL 50 head. It’s my main work horse and can do clean to thrash. I like it clean and I use pedals for crunch and lead tones. Quite loud too and suits my needs way more than a 100w.
Still main amp for me and has been since 99-00. Just dime the classic/clean and activate the crunch and it basically does anything depending on your picking. Super dynamic response. It will be LOUD tho so you know keep your ears safe. Peace
Well that's true untill i got an SL-X a few months back. It's way more touch sensitive than the 2000 has that classic grind that the 2000 just doesn't have even on the class channel. It's become my favorite amp.
I bought one of the 100 watt versions as a result of your original video, 50 watt versions very hard to come by! Great amps and can be got cheap, I paid €400 for mine!
Man, that thing sounds Wundebar as my German friends would say already. Those JB pickups are a tad spikey to me. Great if you have a dark Gibson scale guitar though. Will just sing. Man, that thing sounds great though in all the positions you tried and I loved how when you pick lightly it cleans up and and when you bear down on the meat it roars. Very cool. 🤘♥️🤘 That would be my second choice after a 50 watts Soldano if I just wanted an amp to record and gig with. 🤘♥️🤘. Here sadly it's not allowed much. Most venues require you go direct or use a very very small mic's amp with little stage noise because of mic bleed. Especially on small stages. Be good sir. Have a great day my down under friend ♥️🤘♥️ Great videos as always.
I liked my DSL50... until I discovered I prefer power amp break up over preamp gain. I now have a JTM45 for cranking, and if I need a quieter/portable Marshall sound I grab a Bogner Blue pedal, which works into any amp I am presented with. But yes, JCM2000 DSL will get you 'a' Marshall sound for not much money.
I like to rock Green Clean with the gain turned up for cleanish and crunch tones, which also sounds good with my KOT thrown on top. In red land I usually go for OD 2. Lots of people are the opposite, they go for Red 1 and Green Crunch, but this just works for me! Run it through my G12EVH 4X12, sounds pretty amazing. Ever try these? Oh and also I love running the JMP-1 through the Loop of the DSL as well.
I have a jcm2000 401 combo with a celestion goldback. I personally prefer OD1 for rhythm and OD2 for leads. The cleans aren't my favorite but they aren't bad.
On my DSL 100, at least at bedroom volume, I feel like I need to crank the presence to at least 8 to get a tone that isn’t muddy. My settings at the moment: Ultra again Lead 2 Volume around 2ish Bass 6 Middle 7 Treble 8 Presence 10 Both the Tone Shift and Deep buttons are not depressed. 1960B 4x12 cab with British/Mesa V30s (T4416) Backing the presence or treble off below 5-6 seems to just make it too ‘scooped’ or almost muddy. Don’t get many chances to crank the volume past that so maybe the amp just needs to ‘open up’? I might be too used to my Fortin-Jose modded Plexi 100w. Completely different amp of course. Thoughts?
I've been on the fence between this amp and a Vintage Modern. I play 60's/70's Classic Rock, and some blues. Nothing that could ever be considered dark or metal. The VM seems to have more mid punch than the JVM2000, but they're more difficult to find.
@@LeonTodd Yes, you did. I watched that video, as well as other Marshall-centric videos you’ve made. Really liked them all. You’ve added to my indecision. I was set on the Vintage Modern, but I think I could get along with the JCM 2000 DSL. Which are easier to find.
Can anyone tell me why my JCM2000 DSL50 has gold piping not white? I can't find any info on the Web... maybe it was a customised head? It's a 1999 made in England amp
I think there a great amp and give a classic tone. It's just not what I prefer anymore. I loved them when I was a younger and playing for 10 years or so. Now I find them less articulate and muddier than I like. And probably why I like Mesa's so much now where I didn't back then. If I had your amps I would be playing the Mark IV and your Soldano all the time thru an attenuator.
@@LeonTodd Blending the two is fantastic. I like to layer when recording also. Except you actually have these great amps and I have to use my FM3 and amp sims right now for the material I'm doing now to get those amps. Oh well, we can't all have the real thing. ☺️
Up until I became a Mad Professor Amp endorsee I used this amp for 15 years and never had a service, mine was from 2008, absolutely killer This amp was originally designed for Jeff Beck
@@jalaskabtu Please don't make the mistake, the DSL and TSL have different electrical circuit boards. TSL are very weak and you will be paying for it to be fixed $$$ a lot. They burn out the boards and a poorly designed. I know this because my freind had the DSL and I had the TSL. The DSL also sounded a lot better. If you want the extra channel, just use an over drive pedal.
Brilliant, as usual, but the best Marshall I owned was the very rarely mentioned JCM 900SLX. Before I left England for Canada, my set up, amp-wise, was the JCM 900SLX into a 1960 straight 4X12, and a JMP 100 watt Master Volume into a Marshal 2X12 for cleans! Before my AXE FX3 that was probably the best amp set up I ever had...the ENGL Special Edition probably being the only serious competition.
@@LeonTodd they seem to have become like hen’s teeth. I’ve seen the odd 900, but the SLX are very rare. Funny thing is that amp was the only one I’ve had where the pre-amp tubes blew! I replaced them with MESA tubes, and it was a glorious re-birth🎶🤘🎶
I bought a 2000 a few years back because of Leon's videos. However I recently bought an SL-X and can't stop playing it. it's so similer to my 2204 with more gain. It has more of that Classic Marshall grind than the DSL. However the DSL does get chunkier than the SL-X. 2 different beasts.
@@guitarexpert2245 that's awesome. They were my last two Marshalls. I haven't played a Marshall since I came to Canada...well not including the Axe FX3 which is mind bending. I had two Boogie Road Kings, at different times, but just couldn't get them to work for me. Best amp I've used up to now has been the ENGL Special Edition. I'm now expecting a Hughes and Kettner Triamp MK3, which I'm hoping for good things from.
I've had this amp for almost 20 years now...I can't let it go, It just feels like home when I'm playing through it.
Your earlier Dsl50 videos pushed me over to actually buying one, and it has scratched the Marshall itch perfectly. Does everything I need it to do.
Awesome to hear!
Yeah me too, paired with a 4x12 and a load of Boss pedals!
The JCM2000 is the BEST Marshall amp head IMO. 💯
The amp actually has channelbleeding, when youre in the OD1 Channel, you can crank the Classic Volume and get a fuller and thicker sound! Give it a try if you didn't know that yet.
I did not know that! Will have to try it, thanks!
Now this I need to investigate!
Similar to the JSX and 333 XL, basically two sets of tone controls as a result.
If this is true I can't believe I never knew this before...
@@prsdave22 same. I've had this amp for 13 years or so.

Best deal on Craigslist was a DSL100 and 4x12 cab, both made in UK for $550. Gave them to my buddy as a housewarming gift.

Rock Bottom, yes! I think it sounds great for blues and classic rock but, somehow, it always sounds vintage even if you play heavy/modern stuff.
I think the old greenback I used here really adds to the vintage vibe. Might do a vid on the real chunky stuff.
Ah, another throwback to the 2000s...
I remember seeing ads for these in GuitarOne when I was just starting to learn about gear.
My single most favorite amp ever made. Its literally a Swiss Army Knife and can do anything within your imagination. It'll be the one that I die with

Did you used noise pedal ? Because it really quiet when you play distortion
Hey Leon, what year is your DSL50?
Tones remind me a lot of mid 70s Kiss. Maybe I should go for this one as an amp upgrade.
Me encanta ese cabezal.
I owned the 100 watt DSL 2000 but never played the 50 watt, do they sound exactly alike or does it have a different sound and feel?

Agreed.
I found one listed as 2005 jcm 2000 dsl50. Is it considered safe from the bias drift thing and the speaker jack grund thing?
Add a TS to the green channel and play some Gary Moore 😎👌
