Amazing Marshall Tone

Bryan McHugh

I actually got to play an original 1974. I am sure this new 1974 is every bit as good. The louder it gets the better it sounds. Price kinda crazy but hey why not.

Marshall 1974X

Brian Lane

Imagine vintage Marshall tone in a portable package, that won't overpower your band mates, and yet get you to that sweet spot that Marshall's are loved for without ripping your head off. The 1974X is the answer. Think tones like Duane Allman, Hendrix, Free, etc. It won't chug like an 800, but that's not what it's meant to do. It does Vintage Marshall tone all day. I've had mine read more since they were first released I'll never sell it.

Wonderful Classic

I waited a long time to purchase this fabulous amp. This amp is outstanding. Simple layout, great sound. Expensive, but if it's in your budget & you need modest power, you won't be disappointed.

An excellent Amp..Just what I thought it would be..

The Quintessential Tube Amp Tone Barre None!

Big Daddy

Words really cannot express the complexity and beauty of the pure tone that exudes from this baby. The early Marshalls were based on Fender tube amps of the day and this amp has plenty of Fender influence, more than any other Marshall that I've heard or played. Now, let me say that I also own real black faces from the sixties along with a few Fender "Vintage Reissues" such as read more the '65 Twin. I was disappointed to discover (on a gig) that my '65 reissue had circuit boards and I had a heck of a time finding a cold solder joint that was causing some extremely unmusical honking at arbitrary intervals! I had it fixed and put it up immediately on eBay! The 1974x, on the other hand, is all hand-wired. No circuit boards, which is what we guitarists expect in a vintage reissue. Simplicity, reliability, and tone up the yin-yang. The 1974x has a thick, warm, and round tone that has a creamy edge - Not chimey like Vox (which I also love) but focused, distinct, warm, with that edge, that can be controlled by the way the guitarist plays and by the level of the volume control on the amp. Very responsive to your playing style and loud for 18 watts. This amp can easily handle a small to medium sized room with no mic. The sound disperses nicely from the cabinet and fills the room evenly - This is a feature missing from my Mesa Mark III combo. My Mark III would decapitate anyone in the path of the speaker throw. I love this amp. You can hear my 1974x here on YouTube.
