This is a 98 Park series amp, straight from the marshall factory when i bought it. Its a nice 30w combo, 2 channels, standard treble, bass, mid controls on clean, gain, mid, treble, bass and volume on the dirty chan. Great reverb for use on both channels. Lots of input, Cd-plug in, footswitch plug in, etc.. standard marshall casing, 10-inch speaker. simply put, the features are great for the price.
Sound Quality

The sound is great. Not the best clean, but passable, and has great crunch on the dirty side. The sound tends to get better as you turn it up, on full 10 it is amazing. This is not the first marshall ive owned, but the sounds on this are amazing for a practice amp or even for small gigs. The Gain on low is perfect for that vintage 60's sound. Turned up higher it goes into hard metal, up to just sonic sludge at 10. The reverb is really great, sounds awesome even if only on 2 or 3.

This amp is built soild as a rock, with the thick marshall casing to take a beating on the road or in the home. I would rely on this amp for small club gigs or coffee houses, and like i keep saying, its a perfect practice or warmup amp.

havent dealt with them on this product, but in the past they have been very helpful. Comes with a lifetime warranty, which is nice as well.

Overall this is a great amp, especially if youre a beginning guitarist who needs to practice alot at home. You cant beat the price, especially to get a Marshall amp. Just having that name alone makes it feel special. Id definately reccomend this amp to anyone starting out or looking for practice or small gig amp.
