Re: Anyone know about the new Marshall vintage/modern amps?
I think so, this rumour has been flying around the Marshall Amp Forum for a month or so now- everything from a 4 channel amp to all PTP wiring has been bandied about.
From what I gather, it will replace the DSL/TSL series of amps. One thing that gives creedence to this is the fact that the DSL/TSL retail prices have been dropped quite a bit, plus, dealers don't seem to be getting new ones in, selling out what they have on hand.
Here is the thread posted on the Marshall Amp Forum posted on Aug 30
INFORMATION FROM GOOD SOURCE:
marshall plan to release a new head on november/december!
it will have 4 channels and will be midi friendly.
I also heard that they will stop making the TSL and DSL. (i know they cannot produce at the moment due to environmental legislations from EU) marshall themselves told me that this was up until they can sort it out. but someone else told me that they will stop making them. I also heard word that Adrian Smith (Iron Maiden) bought 6 DSL100s as they are going on tour soon and he is afraid of replacing one on the road during the shortage that shops face at the moment. I am ordering my TSL 100 next week if my trades here will not work and I hope I don't miss a good chance of the new 4 channel head. although i heard that the retail price of it will be somewhere on 1200 GBP.
