Marshall JCM 2000 DSL 401

Kirjeldus

The DSL 401 is an all tube 1X12 40Watt combo amp design, that has been manufactured between 1998 and 2012 as a part of the JCM 2000 series by Marshall amps. The 401 has two foot-switchable channels, with an optional 20db boost on the dirt channel, that is also foot-switchable (foot switch included).
Like most Marshalls, the two preamp channels are powered by 12AX7 tubes, one for the clean channel, two for the dirt channel and one for phase inversion. The power section is powered by a quartet of EL84s, again – typical to lower wattage Marshall amps, although at 40 Watts it could also be powered by a pair of EL34s.
Needless to say, as with all serious tube amps, the overall sound and feel of that amp can vary depending on the tubes you load it with, your guitar output and anything between your guitar and the amp.
