Marshall JVM Series JVM410C Tube Combo Amp

Easy to use. Lots of tone options with each channel having 3 modes to select from. One drawback is the lack of the "bottom end". With the open back design, it doesn't have the "thump" that I was expecting. FYI if you are looking for a cabinet, the MX212 is the answer, and the most cost effective cab Marshall offers. TIP - plug the MX212 into the 1x8 ohm jack. I have never had a cab make that much of a difference.

This amp is nothing short of awesome. I've played dozens and dozens of amps in my 35 years of guitar playing and heard hundreds more. The four channel - 3 mode feature coupled with the foot pedal for easy swathing gives you so many options you can't possibly use them all in one gig. From the cleanest Marshall sound I've every heard to the deepest metal crunch, you have a world of sounds at your feet. The two different celestion 12 inch speakers gives you even more sound options depending on which one you mic. However, the single most impressive thing about this amp is tone. I also have a Marshall DSL 2000 which is great but the 410C blows it away. This amp has everything and the sound it produces is just so warm and rich that I just can't stop playing it. Believe me, I'm not a Marshall biased guitar player. I've owned and played many many amps in my day but I've just never played anything with so many tonal options with each one being a 10 out of 10. I would recommend using the XLR out for recording since you don't get the rich sound of the speakers.....definitely mic it for laying down tracks. Simply and unequivocally the BEST rock amp ever built.

If you have not plugged a guitar into one of these amplifiers and played, you are seriously missing out. This amp has everything you could want and more. The different levels of distortion it can achieve with no pedals are mind blowing. You can play with the classic rock style tone and then switch over to a modern high gain setting with the push of a button. The feedback is very controllable at the high gain settings and makes for a wonderful recording amp. The built in reverb is also incredibly amazing and smooth. If you seem to bounce from amp to amp, try this one out and you won't want to change ever again.

I?ve been playing Marshall amps since the late 80?s. A JCM 900 with a 4x12 cab had been my main amp until now. I was looking for a smaller combo amp for convenience and portability and it was time to blend in better with a lead player with a Fender Deluxe. My new Marshall JVM 410C has everything I need and then some. The sound on the Crunch channel reminds me of my JCM 800. The Clean channel is crystal clear with that glassy sound of older Marshals. OD1 and OD2 are like something from the Mode Four Family. I bought it in May, and this week (July 10th) was the first time I played it live. It performed better than I had hoped. My main guitar is a ?74 Les Paul with p90?s. I?ve set the amp up with the foot switch for all ?green? then adjusted the gain on each channel for the sounds I need ?live?. Believe me, four channels is plenty for the music we play, a combination of original and covers with a ?southern rock? flavor. I know, there are 8 more sounds to play with and I?m getting them dialed in this week. I highly recommend this amp for the player who is tired of lugging a half stack to gigs, but doesn?t want to compromise the sound. Buy this amp.

I played this amp at my local guitar center and I was amazed. I have always been more of a Blackface Fender Enthusiest but this amp changed my mind. I use mainly strats but I love the fat rock sound you can get out of a Les Pual particularly through this amp. It is very versatile and can go from a SRV like tone (believe it or not) to a Led Zeppelin tone to a metal tone. It truly is worth the price. It will definetly be my next amp. I hope to write a more detailed review when I buy the amp
