This is THE amp
First off, make no mistake - this thing is big, heavy and louder than you can imagine. It was built for a different era when PA systems weren't really made for guitars, so guitarists had to lug their own PA systems around in the form of these monster Marshalls and multiple 4x12 cabinets.
But, the price you pay for your commitment to that mass and volume (you will need to crank it) is THAT tone. You know, the one on all those old records. The one everyone wants, whether they admit it or not.
Mix it with a Gibson guitar and some nice Greenbacks and you're in heaven. It does everything from clean and understated (not at these volumes!!) to saturated, heavenly drive. All you need to do is turn your guitar knobs a bit and vary your pick attack.
What a wonderful piece of kit...

Very poor quality control
i have been purchase several marshall amp, all of them have different kind of quality control issue. This one come with pretty bad shapes of metal chassis. The one side of chassis is not properly bend. It is leading to has a large gap between bottom wood and metal chassis. I could even insert a pen in to it. One of screws on back side of amp is drilled with angle. The viney cover is not glued properly at the corner. Good side is it still working properly, and i am tired with exchange procedure, so i will keep it and try to fix all these issues by myself. I will not buying any other marshall amp with such bad experience.

Best sounding Tube amp!
Great looking design! Very straight forward not requiring all the bells and whistles of other amps. Best amp for the money!

What it is supposed to be - rock machine!
The sound is the same I expected to hear - classic rock sound! Takes effects perfectly.

great clean tone
The clean tone is great, very suitable as an effects platform, the driver has a gentle sound and good dynamics.
But to make the speaker have the best sound, the volume must be turned up, and it must be in a soundproof room or with attenuation and us
