Product Description

Marshall 2466 Vintage Modern Guitar Valve Amplifier Head. The Vintage Modern Series is just as it's name suggests a vintage sounding amp with the facility to also deliver a hot rodded hi gain rock tone. However the Vintage Modern differs in the way the controls function. To the right of the control panel is a body and a detail control that allows you to mix at lower settings for a really clean sound or at higher settings a progressively more ballsy overdrive--distortion. This goes into a mid boost and then a dynamic range switch that selects between high and low gain. Low equates to the gain and tone you would come to expect from a stock vintage Marshall amplifier. It then has the standard 3 band eq and plate reverb. This allows you to pretty well select any sound youlike. Like the amps of old this one features KT66 output valves. So all in all this is a highly versatile gigging amp for the vintage purist or heavy rock player.

Marshall 2466 Vintage Modern Guitar Tube Amplifier Head Overview:

The Low range equates to the performance you would come to expect from a stock vintage Marshall amplifier in terms of tone and available gain. The High range adds an extra preamp valve into the signal path, facilitating those classic hard rock tones of the seventies. Add to this, the Marshall 2466's ability to dynamically interface with your guitar's Volume and Tone controls and the experience translates into a truly expressive and organic feel in performance.

Two 'frequency selective' Pre-amp Volumes (Gains) - Body and Detail - facilitate greater flexibility of tonal shaping for individual guitars and styles while the power amplifier is heavily based on the first Marshall amplifiers to be produced, with two KT66 output valves yielding that substantial fat and smooth tone. A Mid Boost switch on the front panel fattens the tone even more while a traditional Marshall tone control circuit enables fine tuning of your sound.

A master volume has been included in order to practically manage the output levels at all venues. This is implemented after the 'phase splitter' in order to fully exploit maximum preamp drive when the master is turned down low. A reverb level control mixes the on board 'plate' reverb with the direct signal to whatever degree the player chooses. The reverb can be toggled on and off via the footswitch.

Finally, a series effects loop is provided for those players who wish to use outboard effects to further enhance their sound. Loop levels of -10dB and +4dB are catered for via a rear panel switch as well as the option to completely bypass this feature if it is not required.
