5watter from Marshall is here !

Re: 5watter from Marshall is here !

would rather have a 12" but i'm sure it's rad.

the only Marshall i want is the used 50 watt JCM800 combo at my shop tho...i like the things about it that make it sound bad.
 
Re: 5watter from Marshall is here !

I had one. It's a cool enough amp, but it doesn't have what I think of as "the marshall sound". It does with the stock speaker sort of, but the eq is all tinny and not enough low mids and bass. With a G12H30, it's nice, but not marshally enough. Needs the lows of the G12H30, but the upper mids of the Vintage 30. If you know a speaker that can do this, you will love this amp with that speaker.

That's probably because it's a small 1x12 combo. If it was up to me I'd rather have a re-issue in a small head that you can use with a variety of speaker cabs.

****, it'd sound great with an EVH greenback ! No presence knob though : ( seems sweet still !

I am NOT a fan of a Presence knoc - to my ears it just add much unwanted treb to an allready high-mid amp brand.
Most Marshalls, to my ears, are too trebly out of the box.
