This amp can reach nearly unrivalled territory like only its big brother and the fender bassman can. This is the rock sound. It is every beautiful sound all at once. But if you aren't using an amp blanket (ie an attenuator) that beauty comes at a cost. To get the true power and sound of the amp i jumper it and run each channel on almost half with the guitar opened up. I cant get within 40 feet of the 4x12 without the sound beam ripping my ears to shreds. I know its 40 feet because that's how long my longest cable is. I play in a barn the size of an arena that is located in the country and the neighbours who are a km away can easily hear the amp. I doubt there is anyone on earth with uncompromised hearing who wouldn't suffer immediate and serious permanent damage if they got within 10 feet of the amp. This is easily the most penetrating 20 watts my ears have ever taken. People and farm animals run away and hide when they are within 100 feet. It is more penetrating than my 100 watt 900 or 100 watt dsl. This amp is as bright as the sun, and getting close to it has the same result. You get lost in the beauty as it consumes your senses. Trust me. Crank a deluxe reverb, which is also rated at 20 watts, and when you are a football field away it will sound like it's a pancake still on standby. Not this WMD. So grab your chainsaw ear muffs, lower the blades to head mowing level and expose your enemies to the true power of the dark side.

A fantastic amp at saner volume levels. Great for jamming, practicing and recording. When you find the sweet spot for your particular taste, you will be in Marshall heaven.

I had to wait nine months of Marshall factory delays due to COVID for the head to arrive. Sure this amp "cleans up", but really it goes from rock to ROCK. Its an attenuator master volume amp that looks as good as it sounds.

This amp is a legend... The tone will make you happy. Very happy. This amp is perfect for anything except bedroom playing, you'll need an attenuator for that. If you're worried that 20watts isn't enough let me tell you it's plenty. "oh but it won't have enough bottom end" RUBBISH! Pair it with a 4x12 and sit perfectly in the mix. Get yourself a quality cab, 2x12 or 4x12 and you'll be shocked at how tight the bottom end is. I put an EarthQuaker Plumes and a Union More in the front when jamming in the studio..... The More gives you some sweet breakup without using an attenuator. BTW the volumes are still only on 1 and I'm getting dynamic beautiful 70s rock tones, thick and chimey ooh yeah come to mama. Buy it. This amp is the real deal so stop screwing around buying and selling amps trying to find your tone.... It's inside this box!

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: Starting at 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. Starting at 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
