SOUNDS

The tone of this amplifier is so Marshall to the utmost degree. It has that classic Marshall sound that you've ever heard and will can retain all that great Marshall goodness even if it's modified. This amplifier is a classic amplifier that thousands upon thousands of musicians of reach for to get their great guitar rock tones. These amplifiers work best with the greenback style speaker in at 4x12 cabinets in my opinion. They sound good in at 2x12 cabinet as well. The greenback speaker is perfect to my ears because I've grown up listening to greenback speaker playing guitar but the H 30 speakers are another great speaker that matches well with this amplifier. Use a jumper cable to connect the two channels to get some of that dark tones from the darker channel and you can have a great punchy driving Marshall tone.

OVERALL OPINION

These amplifiers though are discontinued are pretty easy to find on the used market. Marshall saturated the market with these amplifiers back in the day and they're pretty easy to come by. I've seen them for as low as $1200 in this bad down time economy. I had a recommend this amplifier to anyone looking for a classic martial sound and needs a good workforce amplifier to do that with.
