Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Should be very dependable. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Don't know just got it but, with only 3 tubes it won't break the bank to replace or re-tube if necessary. As per past experience, Marshall is reliable in general if not abused. Overall Your general opinion of this product. This is a great little amp. The perfect size and weight. Quality is up for this product as well. Sound Can't be beat! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Classic Marshall sound. Nice indeed. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? As nice as any of their classic or top of the line units. Really looks great and durable. Action How was the action out of the box? Killer! just killer.

Overall Your general opinion of this product. Great! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing?

Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Excellent! Action How was the action out of the box? Needs a few guitar stomp boxes to season to taste.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Yes! Reliability How has it stood up over time? I've only had it a month, but it's a tube amp. They require regular up-keep. BUT, I can see this puppy outliving me! Overall Your general opinion of this product. I love this little beast! It's got the best tone I've ever heard from an amp of this price range. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? This amp responds amazingly! Pairs well with most pedals, so far. The ones that don't click can always be persuaded to "get along" with it just fine. Moron-simple to use. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Deep, dark, POWERFUL mid range. The only thing that bugs me is it can get muddy pretty easily, and there's no fx loop. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? I got the British racing green one! Sexy!!! Action How was the action out of the box? Ready to rock! Don't panic when it starts smelling like its on fire! Just the tubes a-breakin' in!!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Plays well. I think they fixed the tube rattling. So far, I have not heard anything but the speakers. Reliability How has it stood up over time? So far so good. Only had it for two weeks so no opinion at this time. Overall Your general opinion of this product. Great for studio recording. You actually can use the headphone to do direct recording but I only like the clean sound. If you do some crunching or fuzz buzzing you will have to mic the amp. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Very good. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Dark and smooth. Oh yeah! Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Racing British Green - cool and people look at it as if it were something they have never seen before but I like it is pleasing to look at for a long while. Action How was the action out of the box? Tight sound. Either Marshall's products have it or miss. This one hits the sound.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Made very well! Handle to corners! Everything you could look for is nice! Reliability How has it stood up over time? Marhsall reliable! Few tubes to replace if they go out! Overall Your general opinion of this product. Gives a nice thick classic rock style tone! Ive hear it said its better with les pauls! But i doubt that! This thing pour hendrix and SRV with no pedals! just straight to the cab! But with the LP it throws out Zep and Free style stuff effortlessly as well! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? LIGHT! Who would think you could have classic rock in a box and it be this light! Hass that beautiful tube tone! Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? The tone as i mentioned before is classic rock in a box! Put a fender on it for Hendrix or SRV put a LP on it and your ram jamming or Boston'ing it! haha Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Nice green tolex! everything looks top notch! nice looking amp! The green makes you want to play it when you walk by it!! Action How was the action out of the box? Knobs seem high enough quality!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Seems good to me. I don't expect any problems. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Only had it for two days. No rattles at all. Overall Your general opinion of this product. I bought a "scratch and dent" model so I was keeping my fingers crossed that I don't end up with the rattle problems that some people experienced. No rattles at all. It seems well built and sized right (not too small) so that it doesn't sound boxy. Great Marshall tone and right volume for home practice. This may be my new favorite amp; my other amps are Vox Night Train, Jet City 20H, and Palomino V32. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Light weight and great sound; what's not to like? Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Sounds great with my several of my Gibsons (haven't tried every one yet) and America Strat. I think the amp favor humbuckers more than single coils. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? I got a "scratch and dent"; some of the gold plating on the handle covers rubbed off. The cab covering looks tired (not sure if this is supposed to look like that). Workmanship seems fine.
