    Way to sound like a lawnmower chewing on some wasps or what. Were you paid to promote Marshall, or intentionally try and make the amp look like crap? Because I could have dialed a better tone when I was 12 years old.
    In reality this little box is pretty damn cool. It makes playing at home with a few band mates a pleasure and whilst I am Marshall biased, I'd still rate it as a favourite. Its just well put together and delivers great tone. A pity you let this train wreck pass as advertisement. Flying around recommendations lists here and there and not doing it justice at all.

    • @Millo1868
      @Millo1868 6 років тому +3

      I looked up other videos of this amp and some sound pretty good. I am considering getting the amp. So, I figured that it must be the recording itself--hopefully. Maybe he cranked up the presence? Very buzzy, harsh and brittle yet muddy. In order to get this kind of sound, though, a Metal Zone through a Peavey Bandit might get a better tone. An old Carvin MTS with clipping diodes sounds better than this recording.
