hi i got this with my first electric gutair the other day but to be honest i don't know a thing about tone or anything like that, but all i know is that mine is NOT good. how do you make a nice tone???
@skillzdatkillz900 try adding a little chorus to the clean tone. it certainly helps! plus you can use the delay effect when you're using the overdrive. hope this helps!
this is a great practice amp but if you're an experienced player looking for a great amp,i wouldn't recommend this. you would not be satisfied with this. i would suggest saving up for the bigger ones like the mg30dfx or line 6 spider or peavey.
Ok i have a line 4 spider 4 and a boss me-25 effects pedal and it doesn't sound very good at all and the only way to make it sound normal is if you have it on clean with everything off would it be better to buy a marshal 30 watt with my effects pedal or a vox 30 watt?
And i think this marhsall will fit it because it got a realy good sound! At least think . I tested this amp with a jackson kingV and i really liked it! Iam buyng a dean Razorback db with this amp. Probably after some. I will keep the amp but buy a colun.
Yeah, im a metal/thrash player too, and i own one of these, i can tell you, they are amazing for them, put the gain all the way up and you get an amazing metal sound, its the closest to a true thrash metal sound you can get thats pretty affordable. I mean, the only amp ive tried thats beter than the marshall for metal is a krank krankenstien, which are very costly.
I sure like my little Cube. I have the Spider III-75 also. In my 45 years of playing, one thing is certain; it's very difficult to find one guitar and one amp that is right all the time. I kid you not, I have thirty guitars and amps and I always want more.. always. Man, if we could ever find one guitar and one amp that would keep us grinning, it really would be a phenominal miracle. I don't play for money and I don't play for fun.. It's an obsession and the obsession has won! AARGGHHH HELP!
Well, the cubes have in-built settings for metal, acoustic and blues sounds, so if you want to just flick a switch for the different sounds then yeah, get the roland, but the marshalls are classics and rolands just dont move the air as well as the marshall. But tbh they're both very good amps
I have a big question what is better this Marshall MG15dfx or line 6 spider III also 15 watts??? please answer i really want a good amp but i dont have enough money I have around $80
i got a line 6 75 watt and thought i sounded good until i got better at guitar and realized its sounds like shit then i saw the mg series of amps and was blown away. they r a lot better and sound more like a tube amp. I d good with the marshall
cool...i have the Marshall MG30dfx (mg series own!) but it is very faulty until i got it fixed and now that it works it is just simply brilliant! it got it for £130.00 aswell so u would expect a little quality.
u should save around $150,00 first (in my country - (£90.00) and then maybe try the Fender Frontman 25gr combo...it is known to be the best amp for a cheap price. and it's 25watt! GO FOR IT! they cost around $140,00 maybe??
I bought a spider amp, I'm not satisfied with the tone of the distortion. It sounds all washed out and unclear. I do not recommended it even for beginners because as your ears get sharper you realize quicker how washed out it is. I did not think that the amp mattered that much, but it does in terms of tone.
It depends on what u want to play. If u like metal i would go with line 6 and u get more watts, but if you want an awesome classic rock amp then i would go marshall but it would only be 15 watts but it is a good practice amp
I have the line 6 spider III and let me tell u IT'S better than this marshall, line 6 doesn't have any noise while u play with distorsion, also has 2 parameters with 3 effects per each and u can combine them! it's really nice and appart from that has some other extra functions. I hope I could have helped u, sorry for my bad english =)
Very true, Line 6's are really good, but the marshals are classics, only thing is, if you have the gain, treble, bass and contour all the way up with FDD on you tend to pick up tv channels lol
There's a hell of alot of negativity around this amp. I bought one off my mate today at a bargain price of £60 and i honestly cant find a fault with it. Clean sounds beautiful overdrive sounds great and the built in effects rock ! You'd think it was gonna fall apart as soon as you plugged it in the way everyones been going on but it suits me and my tastes. A word to anyone who is thinking of purchasing it, dont listen to other people because its all musical taste.
wow what a coincidence.. i was researching both the guitar and amp :D well now i know that the combination is fine so i'll go with the two. thanks for the upload!
i own VOX AD30VT at home BUT there is just one thing that many ppl just can`t understand... it`s not about amp`s brand, model or price... some like Peavey, some Laney and other Marshall. so there is no such thing as "good" or "bad" amp, it`s just a matter of "musical taste". some ppl like muscle cars, other like sport cars but does that mean that race bikes are shitty? don`t think so. one like how car`s engine sounds and other doesn`t give a fuck about it as long as it`s fast. and that`s it.
however in each of those categories of cars there lemons, this is one. i love the marshall sound, but this sounds like a very bad copy of the marshall sound.
@killakid443 - if you think that VOX amps ist`n good for rock it just means that you have no idea how to use VOX amps. that is all i have to say to you m8.
@killakid443 - oh come on man, i`m playing Metallica, Iron Maiden, Lacuna Coil, The Offspring, Evanescence, Papa Roach, HIM, Six Feet Under, Sepultura, Korn and many more with my VOX and it sounds just fine. The thing is that you have to play with the knobs to get the sound that you like. At first i thought that my VOX amp was shitty but when i started messing with it it turned out to be a really good amp for playing any kind of music...
So, all the tones and sounds that were played, (mostly I'm talking about the funny sounds on the clean part) came from this amp? No pedals or anything?
i got one and love it. it's kinda small and light, but it is as loud as heck. i can vibrate all the windows in my house with this amp. it sounds just as good as it does in this video too. this has got to be in the top 10 starter amps. i've played 3 years and it still sounds good enough for me. i highly recommend it. 5 stars
so don`t buy one if u don`t like the sound. i don`t like Kustom`s or Crate`s sound so i don`t buy them but i don`t say that they are shitty, they just aren`t my type.
you want a "good amp"? get Mesa Boogie, some top model of Marshall, Peavey or Line6. and don`t get any static state amps, they all are shitty. what do you say now maestro?
well i can`t say that you know shit about amps or guitars if you can`t understand that meaning "good or bad" doesn`t exist as for guitars or amps. it`s all about if you like the sound or not. i LIKE how Marshall`s SOUND, does it make me a shitty guitar player?
i really have to check out that vypyr... about cube - many ppl say that this amp is shitty ;d and as for fender - i don`t like fender`s tone, how it sounds :/
yeah i know i'm going to sell my mg15dfx and get a fender frontman 212r or something. this sound good to you for a couple of months before you realize how bad it sounds.
ive been round all the shops in my area to check this amp out and i must admit it seems a bit small. At the moment i have a peavey rage 158 as im not in a band yet, im thinkin of gettin rid of it to get one of these...
