This new line of transistor guitar and bass guitar combos have been released to unanimous acclaim. Your combo is part of a new breed of Marshall amplifier, which has benefited from years of experience and continual investment in research and development.

Not only is the sound quality of your Marshall MG Series amp of a standard that you would only expect to come from our own design team, the G215RCD features a stereo chorus facility which adds unbelievable spread and size to your sound. The Marshall G215RCD also has a CD input to allow you to play along to CD’s. The ultimate home practice facility.

I would like to wish you every success with your new Marshall MG Series amplifier, which I am sure you will find a pleasure to play for years to come.

Yours Sincerely,

1. Input Jack

Plug your guitar in here.

2. Gain 1

Providing that Gain 2 Control is kept at zero, turning this up to around half way, i.e. around five can result in some great clean sounds. Turning this up past half way will result in your guitar crunching up, ideal for vintage blues or classic rock.

3. Gain 2

This takes off where Gain 1 finishes. Having both Gains off will result in no sound. Turning Gain 2 will result in a distorted tone straight away.

Turning up this control even further will result in high gain sounds, ideal for contemporary styles. Cranking up both Gain 1 and Gain 2 will result in monster distortion.

4. Treble

The Treble control will add or take away the higher frequencies in your guitar tone.

5. Contour

The Contour control shifts the mid-range frequencies in your guitar tone. By turning the Contour control fully clockwise you will scoop out of your sound most of the middle frequencies, ideal for thrash tones if combined with high gain settings. By turning the control fully anti- clockwise you can get some great fusion type tones.

6. Bass

Turning the Bass control will effect the amount of low frequencies or bottom end in your tone.

7. Master

Volume Controls the overall volume of the amp.

8. Reverb Control

Adding Reverb to your guitar tone will add ambience and size, giving the effect of playing in a large empty room or hall.

9. Chorus On / Off

Switches stereo chorus facility on and off.
