Marshall - Impedance Settings Essentially in any Marshall set-up there are only three possible choices of impedance, 4 Ohms, 8 Ohms or 16 Ohms. If you are using a single cabinet then it is pretty obvious that the amp should be set to the same impedance as that of the cabinet i.e. 4 Ohms for a 4 Ohm cabinet, 8 Ohms for an 8 Ohm cabinet etc. If you are using two cabinets of the same impedance, you divide the impedance of one cabinet by the number of cabinets being used. So for two 8 Ohm cabinets you would set the amp to 4 Ohms, or for two 16 Ohm cabinets you would set the amp to 8 Ohms. In situations where you are using cabinets of different impedance's the most likely configuration would be one 16 Ohm cabinet and one 8 Ohm cabinet, in which case you would set the amp to 4 Ohms. As a rule of thumb if you work on the idea that where using two cabinets of different impedance's you set the amp to half the value of the cabinet used with the lowest impedance, then you won't go far wrong. There really is no mystery to any of the set-ups described above, but it is vital to the correct and safe working of any amplifier to always ensure that the impedance is correctly matched Sound Settings As sound is such a subjective thing and there are so many variables involved, from the weight of your guitar strings through to the type of guitar and strength of pick-ups etc. it is very difficult to give serious advice. Generally if you start with everything at 12 o'clock and adjust from there, then let your own ears do the rest. Obviously, the more you increase the gain, the more intense the distortion becomes. Another important thing to remember is that, particularly on valve amps, the EQ is inter-active so adjusting one control can affect the others in relation. The best thing really is to experiment and don't be afraid of being radical as there is no absolutely right or wrong way to set up a sound. If it sounds good then use it. Top Ten Tips Here are the answers to the most commonly asked Marshall service questions. If you follow these simple guidelines you will ensure that you get the longest possible life from your valves (tubes) and maximum performance from your Marshall.
MARSHALL EXPLOSION THE MASTER VOLUME A DOUBLE LANDMARK THE QUEENS AWARD SILVER JUBILEE A FIRST CLASS TEAM 1992 AND BEYOND The history of Marshall amplifiers has become a source of great fascination and interest over three decades. In 30 years of manufacturing we have made a vast number of different models using many materials and techniques. Documentation from those early years is virtually non-existent. The pressure to build amplifiers was so great that detailed record keeping was impossible. This pressure also created anomalies in the products themselves as component and minor cosmetic changes could be phased in at any time where supplies ran out but production had to continue. The following information is a rough guide to the major changes in the most popular Marshall models since 1962. 1962 - The original production of those first JTM45 models featured the following:- Serial numbers starting at 1004; Smooth black covering: White grill cloth: Silver polished aluminium panels: No rear panel: Rectangular metal logo with red block lettering: Leather handle: Single speaker output: 5881 or 6L6 valves. Cabinets - Straight fronted, using the same logo and fret cloth: Celestion G12 15 speakers. 1963 - Production essentially the same as the above but with the following changes:- Twin speaker outputs: Black knobs with serrated edges: Changed to white engraved panels late in 63: First angled cabinets, similar finish and speakers to the straights but taller than today's 4x12. 1964 - Serial numbers begin with 2: Valves now changed to KT66's: Logo changed to gold plastic with black lettering mid year: The first combos made late 64: Speakers now changed to G12 20's. 1965 - Panel changed to gold plexi glass: Serial numbers no longer reliable: Handles changed to plastic with larger end cap: The first 100 Watt amps appeared in larger cabinets with two 50 Watt transformers, JTM45 panels, KT 66 valves and without GZ34 rectifier. The first serious combo production of models 1961 4x10 and 1962 2x12 took place. The same features as the JTM45 but with the addition of tremolo. Fret cloth changed to green flecked weave late 65. The 'stack' was born from Pete Townshend's original request for an 8x12 cabinet. Late 1965 saw the change to green fret cloth 1966 - TheJTM45 changed to JTM50 on panels: Block logos now changed to white script with gold coloured plating: Valves changed to EL34's and Gz34 rectifier phased out: Transformer uprated. 100 Watt production was now standardised with a single 100 Watt transformer and EL34 output valves. The 1961 and 1962 were upgraded in line with the heads and cabinets slimmed down. All cabinets now had corner locked joints. As a method of quality control all cabinets were signed inside. 1967 - Chassis were all upgraded from aluminium to steel construction. The first 200 Watt Majors appeared, with just treble, bass and volume controls, “active” tone circuitry and KT 88 valves. 10 and 18 Watt combos introduced in 1x12, 2x10, 2x12 tremolo or non tremolo versions. Fret cloth on cabinets changed to basket weave in late '67. 1968 - The Major was modified to match the normal panel layout and active electronics dropped. Gold logos changed to white. 1969 - New gold metal panels were introduced across all ranges. Serial numbers now followed a dating system with the letter A appearing after the number. By 1970 cabinets had all changed to check fret cloth. From this point onwards, Marshall amplifier history is much more easily accessible from the serial number and the inspection tag attached to every amp chassis. Notable dates after 1970 are as follows: 1970 - The period of coloured Marshalls. Orange, purple, blue etc. 1974 - The first transistor 100 Watt amp (model 2098) was introduced. 1975 - Design of the first Master Volume amp was completed. 1976 - All units changed to thicker wood finish and large white script logos. Black fret cloth gradually introduced. 1981 - JCM 800 range launched. 1982 - The first split channel amps arrived. 1987 - 25/50 silver Jubilee units produced. 1989 - Series 9000 rack systems released. 1990 - The year of JCM900. 1991 - Valvestate swept the world. 1992 - The 30th Anniversary. With each passing year more Marshall amplifiers achieve “classic” status. The Anniversary Series Limited Edition amplifier is such a fine piece of engineering and technology, that it will achieve this status instantly. One thing is certain, whichever Marshall you own it has a unique pedigree and at some time will command its own place among the Marshall classics. DetailsThe Marshall MG101FX guitar combo amplifier gives you four storable channels of fantastic Marshall tone and plenty of power for the stage! The 100-watt MG101FX includes one 12" speaker, four switchable channels, and a 3-band EQ. It also features a STOMPWARE footswitch, power amp damping, a switchable effects loop, and a line in for music players. This amp is excellent at emulating the response and sound of a tube amp, and it works great for live and studio applications alike. Speaker-emulating headphone and line outputs are built right into the MG101FX.Simple panel layout for easy tweaks The new MG series amps mark Marshall's return to a simple, tried-and-true panel layout that's amazingly easy to use. Gain, followed by a three-band EQ (two-band Contour Control on the MG10), Volume and Master Volume are laid out for quick access. Push-button channel switching allows smooth, uninterrupted transitions. Combining true analog tone circuitry and Marshall's proprietary FDD (Frequency Dependent Damping) technology, these amps provide that authentic Marshall sound and feel. This damping technology emulates the dynamic interaction between an amp and its speaker, giving you feel and tone characteristics you'd normally only find in far more expensive tube amps. The combination line out/headphone out features speaker cabinet emulation, giving you full Marshall sound when recording or practicing through headphones. A line input allows you to play along with MP3 and CD players. Take advantage of incredible effects and programmability This amp includes great sounding reverb and digital effects (Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, Delay) in addition to its digital programmability. The delay time can be manually set using the front panel Tap button. Settings for each channel can be customized and saved for instant recall. The STOMPWARE footswitch (optional for MG15FX and MG30FX) provides seamless transitioning from sound to sound and tap tempo, plus a built-in tuner with LCD display. STOMPWARE technology allows this sophisticated multi-function pedal to be connected using a traditional guitar cable, eliminating the need for special or hard-to-find cables. In addition, the MG50FX, MG101FX, MG102FX, and MG100HFX feature a switchable effects loop for adding a favorite external effect to the sound. These models also include the STOMPWARE footswitch as standard equipment. From the music store to stages everywhere Jim Marshall didn't start out building great amps. In fact, his entry into the amp world came about in part because the drummers that visited his music shop for equipment and lessons often brought along their guitar players. Conversations about their amplification needs led to the birth of a line of amps that would eventually change the sound of music. From those first humble creations to Pete Townshend's first monster full stacks, from the mid-'60s combos to Hendrix to backlines of multiple Marshall rigs, one thing has remained constant: Marshall's commitment to the best tone and performance possible.
