British TrueTone : Brilliant marshall in a box

8 years ago

The reason I bought this was I needed something that allowed me to use my valve amp at home volumes but with an overdrive sound, it was purchased for that but is so much more. On first glance it's just that Marshall in a box that so many others offer, but at a price that no one else can offer it at.

The enclosure is suitably chunky feeling, robust and should stand up to regular use no problem at all. The colour is a mad pink and while not everyone's cup of tea is very easy to see on a dark stage.

With minimal but all very useful controls it's very easy to use and no matter where on the dials you are every sound is useable. Lots of classic Marshall sounds in here, from just on the edge break up to balls to the wall all out drive.

This pedal is one that everyone should own, it saved me at a gig when my amp died and this became my amp, so simple and sounded great. It really is worth the money to just have as a back up option should your amp decide to die at the worst possible time (isn't that when they always die?) It also really handy to just go direct with for recording. This box does so much and for so little cost.
