Satisfaction Guaranteed

What would I do without ’em?

I’m an Austrian guy and I’m playing Guitar for 2 years now. I actually tried a lot of amps but not one of them really satisfied me until a friend of mine sold me that big VS102R.

He’s just an awesome amp and I really love him! Please Marshall, go on making such superb amps!!!

Hey folks!
Great display at the NAMM show. It was even better because Jim was there!!
Attached are a couple of photos of my rig.
This one's in the studio using my early 70's JMP 50 and late 80's model 1987 through a 70's cab.
The other is of me and my shopmate, the world famous repairman Dan Erlewine blasting my stack out in Dan's yard. Notice the indicator light is on. I was worried about the cops coming but Dan didn't care.

My comment about my Marshalls? Soundmen hate me........

Best Regards,

This is me The Axeman just after playing a gig with my band using my ultra reliable monster of a Marshall Stack. JCM2000 TSL 100 with two Marshall 1960 Cabs. No effects used at all just the raw sound of the Gibson Les Paul Standard plugged straight in!!

Awesome...'nuff said!

The Gift That Keeps On Giving

The Gift That Keeps On Giving

Dear Marshall Team,

This christmas I was given the best gift of all, it was a 1966b cabinet to go
with my AVT50 combo. This 2x12 cab has bought out the best in not only
the amp but my 06 Gibson SG standard and my effect pedals. This may be
my first marshall but I have many years of purchasing more of your products
ahead of me. I also am planning on purchasing a Marshall bass amp for my
double bass soon. Keep on making those legendary amps Jim and team.

Hi folks,
it's me hammering it out on a gig back in good ol' Germany! The 6100 (blue finish/ brass logo) 30th Anniversary amp is by far the best amp I've ever (I mean EVER) used. End of story!!! I love it to death and would never ever turn my back on it! I'm proud being able to be part of the Marshall family! Best regards,

Just Marshall, nothing else!

Hi Jim and all at Marshall-amplification!
This is my amazing JCM 900 High Gain Dual Reverb with 100 watts pure Marshall power!!
I play through a 1960 AV Vintage cabinet with Vintage 30 Speakers and it sounds heavier than anything else in this world!
The Rhythm channel is brilliant and the Lead channel… it’s scary!!
When I started playing guitar I always played my good old MG 15 DFX and it still sounds great! (what else? It’s a Marshall!)
In my rack I’ve got an 8008 Valvestate amp and a 9004 preamp, the sound is great!
Now I’ve got my jcm 900 and I will never play anything else than a Marshall!!!!
Keep building great amps like this!!!
Rock n’ Roll will survive!

hi to Jim and the team,

i am one of the lucky ones that have got hold of the awesome JCM800ZW.

Its the loudest thing i have ever heard, and oozes the all valve Marshall tone.

The Complete Package

The Complete Package

I bought this 25/50 jubilee head and 4x12 top and bottom cabs in 1989 not really knowing what i was buying only that i thought the silver looked cool.Later when i played through other marshall amps i realized i had something special because other amps didnt sound any where near as good as mine.This amp now stays in my basement studio and is still in excellent condition considering it was played live with for many years.A purchase of a les paul custom black beauty of the same era has completed the package,i can understand why these amps are highly sought after and highly prized by their owners.Marshalls are the best amps in the world,always have been,fads come and go,marshalls live on.

Here is a picture of my pride and joy, as i am only 15 i was amazed to own a Marshall micro-stack. I couldnt have wanted a better amp to be my first. Along with my Ibanez sz720fm they make an awsome couple. Thanks once again to everyone at marshall.
