    The Official Marshall DSL40c Information Thread

    I emailed Marshall about what cleaner to use for mysterious black smudges that were appearing on the gold eq plate on front of amp. The smudges were not caused by dirty hands (minor), or anything else, merely finger contact over time. They said they were not quite sure what was causing it, and...

    Bandit, I was having trouble loading pic elsewhere, so here is a top pic. The cab is square and not skewed!

    The picture I sent you looked skewed, or angled when in reality it looks square head on. Phone...

    The 70/80 comes stock with the Marshall MX112 ext. cab. I have a Celestion Vintage 30 in the dsl40c, and by comparison the 70/80 has a decent higher frequency sound. The V30 has a fuller frequency spectrum giving the blend of the two a nice sound. Sometimes you get what you pay for! I find...

    I have the Marshall dsl40c with the Marshall mx1x12 cab ext. sitting on top. For night practice I use my Marshall dsl5c which sounds great except I have to use headphones. The headphones I use have been in the $100.00 range, and currently I use $100.00 Marshall headphones. The sound quality of...

    When I got back to playing a few years ago, I used that Mustang amp being impressive at first, but became harsh and too synthetic after awhile. I liked maybe one, or two channels then said no more for me. Maybe Dsp somewhere down the road, but today Tube is king!

    I used that a few years back with my Fender mustang amp. Used and considered only some of it used with the Mustang amp. Of course you mixed after recording? using the Dsl amp. The chorus does sound decent using the Dsl.

    Now, that sounds a lot better. The chorus has a nice blend, what chorus are you using? I forked out a few xtra bucks to get a Strymon blue sky reverb recently which really surprised me, as I have other pedals on my board that seemed to wake up (quality wise) after the addition, notably the MXR...

    Lucky few, out of box mine was biased aprx. 54.0 both sides. Have heard comments on thread some below 35.0, some well over. Although sounding good new and stock, this amp about killed my ears, ice pick and shrill sounding. I definitely made a few adjustments after that.

    I tried a set of Dougs tubes preamp that he recommends and sells on his site a few years ago. I noticed that the tone was richer, and harmonically more complex. You can also get these in high gain etc. Link...

    Yea, I might get one of those sometime down the road (decent sound, killer looks). Lotta pedals including OD's, or distortion to choose from in the Wide world of (sports) I mean pedals. I'm not necessarily promoting hard core metal, but if you do and as a harder alternative the MXR full bore...

    I did like the sound of those Marshall pedals when reviewed, and they do look snazzy! Anyway's I almost have too many drives too choose from.

    If more Saturation is what your after a certain compressor (dealers pick) can beef up the tone very well.

    A few years ago I tried the Fulltone OCD (not sure which version) at guitar center (I don't deal too much with GC nowadays, S&H/taxes), using the DSL40c and a wall hung Gibson LP studio. It was a shoot out between the Ibanez Ts9, and the OCD. The Ts9 won hands down (preference), the OCD was just...

    I have the Silver, as the gold is deeper more compressed I believe. I also have a Ts9 Ibanez on board this pedal adds good unique, old type texture to the tone.

    I think you are referring to the mythical Klon centaur pedal. The original designer, or team member developed the Archer pedal which is supposed to be the most accurate circuit representation of the original Klon. Have this pedal and it is more transparent, and tone range from deep to high treble.
