New Marshall amp day!

[speyfly]

I added another amp to my low wattage collection and I'm all smiles right now. After playing a few hours with multiple guitars I think it has found a home. Sounds great with the Tele's (humbuckers in one and Toneriders singles in the other), Ibanez Artist's, and all sounds great but I'm very pleased with how my Les Paul DC with P-90's sounds. Really cleaned thing up with the right amount of dirt.

Overall I really think I'm gona like this amp plus having the the low power output of 0.5W to keep the family happy.

Congratulations on your new Marshall goodness.

Nice! Congrats!

Nice! The guys that own one love them

Origin 20. Not bad! They are cool amps that can do a good job of sounding like classic JMP Marshalls, and also have their own thing going as well.

I'd pick one up for myself if I came across a good deal on one locally. But for now I'll just have to suffer the consequences of running my restored 1973 100 watt Marshall Superlead halfstack...in my bedroom. That gets LOUD. But I love it! I just run a long cord and play from out on the hallway. The neighbors never complain, anyway.

The visual I get of you playing down the hallway is pretty funny but understandable

Those micro/mini heads are perfect for hobbyist guitar players. For someone who works an off shift like me, they're perfect. Real tube amps that won't get the cops called on you at midnight. I've got a little collection going myself.

Congrats, nice little amp for getting that Marshall tone that we all love.

Here's my little practice setup....other 4x12s not pictured. Yes I have the bottom to match the purple half stack.

Very nice, what's your thoughts on the JOYO? Not that I need anymore amps (2 more not showing in pic).

 

[Central Scrutinizer]

Just on my way out the door, but I'll give a review on the Joyo after work tomorrow!

It's surprisingly good. I got the Zombie XL, so it's the two channel version with the footswitch. Sounds like a cross between a Duel Rec and a Mark series Mesa(as close as you can get in this price range obviously). I run a five band eq in the effects loop to get it closer to the Mark series sound. You can get a pretty damn good Metallica tone with it.

I have eight amps including a Joyo Zombie. It's pretty amazing, IMHO. I run an MXR Six Band EQ and a MXR Carbon Copy in the EQ. I love that thing.

I think Marshall has done a great job in the last few years offering something for everyone in every price range.
