Marshall DSL40CR 40W Combo
In-Store
The next generation of the Marshall DSL series amps are laden with Marshall tone, features and functionality for the novice, as well as pros performing on the world's biggest stages. The new DSL models feature adjustable power settings, which delivers all-valve tone and feel, at any volume, from bedroom to stage. The new technology adjusts power to the valves, instead of just turning off valve stages, allowing the amp to remain articulate and dynamic.
Some innovative tweaks to the EQ circuitry have given the new DSLs even greater tonal flexibility. The EQ section of the new DSLs can deliver exactly what your ears are looking for.
Marshall's partnership with Softube has led to the creation of award-winning plug-ins, as well as exceptional tone in Marshall's CODE digital amps. The same team is responsible for the development of the new emulated output feature, found in the DSL series. Both the headphone out, and line out on the DSL models boast incredibly accurate emulation of the famed 1960 cabinet.
The DSL is now more versatile than ever, with new features including discrete master volume controls for each channel, built-in reverb and resonance controls.
Features:
• Gain and volume per channel
• Dedicated resonance control
• High and low power settings
• Reverb
• Now with Celestion V type speaker
• 2 separate master volume controls
• Softube emulated output
• 4 x ECC83 and 2 X EL34 valves
• Dimensions (W x H x D): 620 x 490 x 252mm
• Weight: 50.5 lbs (22.9 kg)

I owned an original dsl 40 combo almost 15 years ago. It overheated, had a strange fizzy/sizzle like sound that trailed the distortion and would just stop working from time to time.
This new version is an entirely different amp. The cabinet is shallower, wider and taller. It also has 3 or 4 amazing sounds which are simple to dial in. No overheating issues. As far as reliability - that remains to be seen but I am pleasantly surprised by how great this amp sounds. The originals had a Wolverine speaker the new ones have a v-type celestion. I think the new speaker sounds great.
Plug and play Marshall tube mojo at a somewhat affordable price. Enough power to gig with and a half power mode as well to practice with. It?s a keeper - this time.

Been looking for a budget tube amp that has that 70s and 80s rock sound, this amp has go it all. Kinda loud, even in the 20w mode, but I can still get my tones approximately, especially the brown sound that Eddie Van Halen gets from his modded plexi.

This is an amazing amp. Can go from clean tones to a bluesy subtle overdrive to high gain metal tones. If you want a versatile amp for gigging, this is a great choice. It works well with pedals, and because of the FX loop, you can use the amp?s crunch while still keep clean any effects that sound better after distortion. If you want to use this amp in the bedroom, be sure to keep the power on low, since otherwise, it will be too loud. On the other hand, when doing a gig, feel free to set the power to high.
I?d recommend getting this amp. This is a great investment.

The only down side to this amp is that it's really heavy. Without any pedals I can get a sweet heavy/ thrash metal, crunch and clean sound out of it. If you haven't gotten a chance to try it, give Long and Mcquade a visit and try one! You wont regret it! I'm positive this amp will be good for a lot of years.

Only had it for a couple of days so I may update this later.
This amp is wonderful, the clean tones are warm, somewhat dark, and every bit as high quality as the Fender amps I've used in the past.
The distorted tones have a smooth sound to them but can get genuinely dirty when you crank the gain. It's a great tone you can get when you tame the major league bass kick the amp has. Of course it sounds better with the volume cranked.
This is a wonderful all around amp and was half the price of the other Orange, H&K and Fender options I was looking at. You can't go wrong with a legit Marshall.
Some have complained about the reverb. It's not particularly strong so you need to dime it but it sounds really good, it's just a room style reverb so it doesn't totally change your sound all that much.
One other thing to note, you can get reasonable tones out of it at lower levels, thanks to the master volumes. This was a concern for me because I wanted an amp I could play at home and could gig with a band. The 20 watt option works wonders.
Get this amp!!!
