From Jim Marshall

I would personally like to congratulate you on your purchase of this next-generation Marshall MG amplifier.

As a musician myself, I fully understand what it takes to perform live in a band situation. In addition to talent, dedication and a lot of hard work, you also need equipment that does exactly what you ask of it. Over the years I have witnessed many advances in amplifier technology and I wanted this MG series to take full advantage of such innovations. These solid-state amplifiers had to meet the tonal expectations of the modern guitarist whilst also incorporating new and exciting digital technology. With this goal firmly in mind, I set my experienced R&D team the task of designing a new range of affordable MG amplifiers that would not only produce the tone you’re looking for, but also offer an intuitive and totally programmable way of customising, storing and accessing your favourite Marshall tones and features.

Like all the amplifiers in the new MG range, state-of-the-art manufacturing and stringent quality control procedures ensure that these amplifiers meet the high standard of build you have come to expect from all Marshall products.

Whether this is your first ever Marshall, or is the latest addition to your arsenal of amps, the tone, flexibility and feel of these compact, rugged units is guaranteed to deliver the goods – from bedroom, to backstage, to on stage!

I wish you every success with your new Marshall. Welcome to the family...

Yours Sincerely,

Dr. Jim Marshall OBE

1. Input Jack Socket

Jack input for your guitar. Use a good quality guitar cable (i.e. one that’s screened/shielded) to help prevent noise, interference and unwanted feedback.

2. Gain Control

Controls the amount of signal entering the pre-amp and the amount of distortion created in the selected channel.

3. Clean : Crunch Switch

Selects between Clean (green) and Crunch (red) channels.

4. Bass Control

Turning up the Bass control will add warmth and low- end depth to your sound.

5. OD Switch

Selects between OD1 (green) and OD2 (red) channels.

6. Middle Control

Adjusting the middle frequencies will vary the amount of body in your sound.

7. Treble Control

Increasing the Treble will make your sounds brighter and more cutting, turning it down will decrease your tone’s edge and make it sound softer as a result.

8. Reverb Control

This control lets you add a lush reverb to the selected channel, from a subtle hint to cavernous and all points in-between.

9. Volume Control

Controls the volume of the selected channel.

10. Tap (Manual) Switch

Matches the delay FX time to the time between two pushes. The LED flashes at the selected delay time. Holding down the Tap switch for longer than 2 seconds switches the amp between manual and preset mode (pg 2). When using the optional footcontroller, holding both the Tap switch and the Store switch will activate the tuner.
