Marshall revamps DSL line

The Marshall DSL50 has been my amp of choice for years now, and I’m still finding new sounds inside it. It’s a very versatile yet straightforward beastie which can pump out hard rock and metal tones as well as blues, jazz, classic rock… and it does it while preserving the character of whichever guitar you plug into it. Marshall has revamped the DSL line with several new amps.

Check out the new DSL100H, for instance. It has the same exact features and valves as the DSL100, but with an added Resonance control, digital reverb instead of spring, and a rear panel Pentode/Triode switch which drops the output down to 50 watts from 100. It also comes supplied with a two-way footswitch for channel switching and reverb on/off.

See the rest of the range here: it includes the tiny DSL15H head and the DSL15C and DSL40C combos.

A95QpJWCEAA6AUk-2.jpg-large Hi! I'm Peter Hodgson. I write for Gibson.com, Australian Guitar, Australian Musician, Mixdown Magazine (including my instructional column, 'Unleash Your Inner Rock God,' which has been running since 2007), BluntBeat (including their weekly hard rock/metal column Crunch) and The Brag. And I'm Assistant Social Coordinator with Seymour Duncan. I've been playing guitar since I was 8 years old, and I've been writing for magazines since I was 18. I've also worked as a guitar teacher (up to 50 students a week), a setup tech, a newspaper editor, and I've also dabbled in radio a little bit. I live in Melbourne, Australia, and my hobbies include drinking way too much coffee, and eating way too much Mexican food. You can check out my guitar playing at Bandcamp or on YouTube, and feel free to email me at iheartguitarblog@gmail.com
