Shane always brags on Bandits & Mustangs but Marshall knows how to get the "Marshall" sound, without using tubes, better than anyone. Bandits, for example, do sound fairly tube-like, they just don't sound enough Marshall-like and Marshall is THE sound of Rock and Blues Rock. They just know how to VOICE an amp. It should be crunchy & bright and punchy & tight with a hint of clean signal mixed in. That's the Marshall sound

Considering one of these and some of the bigger ones. This looks to be a great amp for the money. No cheesy sounds. Close back cabinets are generally matched to the speaker the open back speaker may have a way bigger magnet to prevent the speaker from unloading and you can even add a piece of insulation Staples to the back and it will probably make it damp in smoother like folded horn bass speakers on a pa. Celestion speakers will always be it.

I have this version and the previous version and both sound amazing (yes I collect Marshall amps). The one thing I’ve yet to figure out, is what that “tuner” bit does above the tap delay / store function. Probably has to do with the foot switch and somehow it works that way as a tuner, but the manual is lacking (my only real criticism of Marshall as a whole). Other than that, if you are a serious guitar player, and can’t get a good tone out of these amps, then it’s either your pickups or your playing... the amp itself hits the sweet spots on both clean and overdriven with little difficulty at all. Great vid BTW... perfectly done.
@erayne824 жыл бұрын
The tuner function does work with the foot switch. I have the four channel foot switch (I believe they may have a two channel as well) and it is handy. It is a decent practice amp, but I do not like that you can only have one of the knob effects at a time (delay, chorus, flanger, phaser). It'd be nice to have some delay + one of the other three. I've also noticed that the effect will add some extra harshness that I have to try and EQ out, but that's really nitpicky for a practice amp. On a side note, I found that I get better tones out of it if I crank the master volume knob to max and just use the regular volume knob to control output. Doing it the other way makes it sound more digital and thin.

I have the smaller brother of this amp, the mg15 with reverb, which was silver back then when I bought it, theres a lot of fuss about it on the Internet but in my opinion it just sounds so much better than any of the similar amps from peavey blackstar etc, to me those amps effects and clean sounds as well just sound a bit too saturated, not quite as natural as these marshalls, the only weakpoint I'd say it has is that the low gain sound really isn't that good, it's pretty hard to recreate a good overdriven sound but if you turn if up to like 2/3 it sounds absolutely amazing, and even turning it up to 3/4 can be good it really starts to chug, the clean sounds are great, I suggest to keep your trebles higher any channel, it really seems to add a bit to the tone in my opinion, the midrange bass can be kept at middle, maybe the bass deceased a bit of you sit in front of your amp

Couldn't help but notice this MG30FX is almost like a beginner guitarists introduction to the JVM series of amps, but with a basic set of effects included. If you're at the JVM end of the spectrum you'd probably have a few stomp boxes to cover delay and phaser, but as a bedroom beginner in the the Marshall amp world then this little MG30FX has got it reasonably well covered... And a half decent and nice 'non-boxy' sounding 10" to deliver its Marshall tones ...

I have the previous version , MG30CFX, I am NOT a guitar player, very much a beginner still, but it sounds pretty sweet to me, much better than our first amp which was a smaller practice amp. I got mine on sale and am happy with it, but really wish at this point(looking to start into the world of effects pedals) that I had gotten either the MG50, or something with an effects loop. I am not planning to upgrade to an MG50GFX at this point, but have considered the larger Katana 100 , or an Orange Crush 35RT. Both of these would have en effects loop. If you can swing the cost of the larger model, with effects loop i would recommend it, if not this 30watt model is a really nice amp, definitely a step up from 10-20 watt practice amps. The effects I think mostly sound decent, and being able to store 4 presets once you get them dialed to your liking is great.... the optional footswitch is great, gives tuner function, recall of all 4 channels, etc...

I'm planning to get the lower wattage version of these without the effects. I plan to use it as a multi-effects platform(if that's a thing). I've been searching around and I don't get where all the hate is coming from. I've checked a lot of other amps and I think the sound of Marshall is familiar to everyone. Orange amps tend to get too crunch I guess almost same as Vox where it's too trebly. Marshall on the other hand seems to favor the low end which I kinda like. Anyone knows why people seem to hate the MG series?

Ironically it's the same circuit as the MGFX and CFX line

How does it compare to the Boss Katana 50? I have an Epiphone SG and I want to be able to play Hendrix, SRV, Mayer, and rock tones. Can it do it?

Uh the KATANA should be quite enough to get all kinds of tones, those katanas are awesome amps, are you not satisfied with the katana

I have the previous one, MG30CFX, and for the sale I got it on I really do like it, along with the addition of the footswitch with 4 switches to open up access on the fly to 4 presets, tuner, etc... I kinda wish that I had gotten the 50watt with an effects loop, amd am now debating another amp woth that feature. Any suggestions on decent amps with effects loop that would be a step up from this, other than the MG50GFX or the Katana 100watt model?

I have the MG50CFX and it is ear-splitting loud, even at low volume in my room. I'm searching for options where I can jam at home or with the boys when we get together. I might consider this one. Any thoughts out there?

Would it be useful to cut o hole in the back for more bass? Great demo, btw.
