    Hi, thanks for review. I've got reverb variation of this amp and it's really nice. Looking good and sounding good, quite loud and round in tone. Knobs work excellent, guitar cable socket is so smooth. Good choice for small, very portable amplification. Best regards from Poland!

    Just picked up this one from shop and I am super happy with it. Tried also MG10 which was also great. For weeks I have been watching all yt videos about these mg amps, severely obsessed. But still I can say that the videos wont really prove you how good these amps sound. So big recommendations from me if you are planning to get one. It sounds amazing!

    I like your (simple) chord progressions.

    I am trying to dial in on a second amp for multi-use. I LOVE the sound of these amps, but.... I see a lot of complaints about the constant hissing (white noise, not buzz), and I can even hear it in THIS video. I am not sure if this is even an issue for me, but I am noticing it more and more. Thoughts?

    • @bestguitarsnow
      @bestguitarsnow  Рік тому +2

      Hmm, I think that most likely it won't bother you. I agree that it may be annoying especially when you're playing very loud but to be honest most amps at this price level have some kind of white noise anyway. So I wouldn't really worry about that :)

    Shifting from an acoustic guitar to electric, I'll go w yamaha Pacifica 012, my main course of playing is distortion so which one should i go for? Mg10 or 15? And yeah I'll play within a room only. Thank you, kindly reply :)

    • @bestguitarsnow
      @bestguitarsnow  10 місяців тому

      Both will be good but I'd say that the MG10 will be more functional for bedroom playing. MG15 is a bit louder but you'll probably won't use that volume in your room. On the other hand, the MG10 doesn't have the EQ like MG15 so it also depends whether you want it or not :)

      ​@@Meteoronee EQ gives you more control over your tone (you have three controls - bass, middle and treble). So you can adjust it all to your own preferences, it slightly changes your final tone.
      It's a useful thing but if you're just starting out then it's not necessary :) so MG10 will be fine anyway!

  • @cleangoblin2021
    @cleangoblin2021 Рік тому +1

    Man theres just no replacement for that Marshall tone.
    Do you think its good for using effects pedals as well?
    Because between this, theres Peavey 110 1x10 inch 40 watts
    And Cort CM30 with bluetooth and really good cleans.
    10 inch speaker as well.
    Mg15gr however seems lackluster and its only winning factor is the Marshall od.
    In which however Marshall wins because you can play many songs with the Marshall tone

    • @bestguitarsnow

      Maybe your guitar's ground is not connected?
      Try if its still humming without a guitar or any plugged in.
      Humbuckers should be silent when the you touch the strings or metal parts in your guitar.
      Single coils however are naturally loud but it should also silence the humming a bit when youre touching the guitar

    Get the mg15 with the built in effects, and upgrade the speaker, or if you have a decent cab, get a line out mod done to it. The stock speakers in these cheap marshalls are GARBAGE. Do something about that, and THEN these are cool little amps. I bought one, and its good for the price around $50-$70 bucks. But I wouldn’t pay any more considering you need money left over to get mods done to it to sound good. In my opinion
