Marshall MS-2R

Start 360°

Mini-Stack Amplifier

Although this tiny Marshall looks like a toy, it is shining in terms of sound. Clean and distorted, it sounds pretty crazy, it should come as no surprise that many use it simply for a fun practice (also usable with headphones it should be noted), but that even blues harp players have been spotted using this little guy. Great fun for less money!

Kinda does what it's supposed to

ChloT 16.06.2020

As a complete beginner, I didn't want to invest much at all in my first amp. I just wanted to practice on my app without having to go through my audio interface. This is perfect for that.

Somehow the app does pick up the sound of my guitar when I use the amp but, to my ears, at lower volume levels it sounds like there's noise coming out of the pickups instead of out of the amp. At higher volume levels the sound is quite muddy but certainly audible.

As stated by others, this is definitely a home/practice/beginner amp; I can't think of a use for it in any other setting.

And the price is beyond reasonable but deceptive; you'll probably pay half as much again for a power source, even if you go to the river site.

Nice Lil bedsidetable AMP

francescost 28.03.2020

If you're looking for a roaring velvety sound delivered by a real valve-amp, its OBVIOUS that's not the right product for you. But for those who use the amp occasionally, don't have much room for a standard combo and want something handy, quick, portable and at the same time useful for silent use (because of the headphone jack), this is the right choice. Good price aswell.

Great device for this price

Rustam N 22.02.2022

Advantages:
1) compactness and convenience: can work both from an electric network and from a battery;
2) great sound that you don't expect from such a small device;
3) simplicity: the minimum number of settings sufficient to start.

Disadvantages:
- no flaws :) What are the flaws for 27 euros? Are you laughing?

No real output in clean

PE Toulouse 11.06.2020

There is not enough output in clean! I measured merely 80 dB in 1 m distance, for calmer parts below 80 db.
You are risking that the acoustic playing of your guitar has the same level.... and competes with the little amp. I just have no fun playing this thing in clean. Overdriven it's okay.
I am not sure yet, perhaps I send it back and buy the Orange Crush Mini or the Blackstar FLY 3 - they have 3 Watts and should be better.
