Classic Tone, Contemporary Control The compact and powerful Haze 40 combo is top loaded for easy panel access and that classic
Bluesbreaker look. Featuring two footswitchable channels where both Normal and Overdrive contain their own independent Boost switch, ideal for fattening single-coil pick-ups for those inspired blues riffs and elevating Overdrive rhythm to thunderous lead respectively. Bass, Middle and Treble have also been joined by a Presence control, allowing further tonal shaping and refinement. As the name might suggest, this combo produces 40 Watts of glorious Marshall tone through two mighty EL34 power amp valves, enough to satisfy both band practice and smaller venues. The Haze 40 also provides a convenient line Out with loudspeaker emulation and a switchable external effects loop, just the job for linking any FX pedals and rack units to the amplifier. If it’s effects you’re after however, the Haze Series has a few tricks left up its sleeve.
Creating the Right FX The beautiful analogue tone produced by each Haze amplifier is matched only by the scope and creative possibilities of the studio quality effects housed within both units. The custom-voiced and widely adjustable Echo, Vibe, and Chorus effects have been specifically designed to help enhance your performance, whether applied subtly or heavily. Each effect is governed by the Effect Depth and Adjust controls which dial-in the amount of effect in use and control the Echo tempo and Vibe/Chorus modulation rates respectively. Completing the Effects section is a spring-emulated Reverb, which adds both space and fluidity to your overall sound. The key feature however, is that all effect settings are automatically stored to the current channel (and Overdrive Boost on the Haze40), and are recalled when you switch back to that channel – simplicity itself and all from a single footswitch tap. For the tone purists amongst you, the Effects section features true bypass, which completely removes the efffects circuitry and preserves that treasured all-valve signal path.
Fancy Footwork Included with the Haze MHZ40C combo is a two-way footswitch, enabling quick channel changes and FX on/off toggling. Specially designed for use with the Haze40 however, is the optional 4-way Haze Footcontroller (PEDL-10049) offering extra functionality and control. Stomp your way through the Normal and Overdrive channels, engage and disengage the Overdrive Boost and turn the Reverb and internal Effects on and off at will. There’s no restricting amp-specific cable to worry about either, as all you need to connect the Haze Footcontroller (supplied with cable) to the amp is a simple guitar cable.
If you’ve been searching for a portable amplifier range that delivers on all tonal promises, then look no further than the Haze Series from Marshall, a truly versatile and dynamic blend of modern technology and pure analogue heritage.
