Nothing produces that classic "British" sound like a Marshall amplifier, whether it's a combo or head and cab configuration. Marshall introduced the JCM2000 Dual Super Lead (DSL) series amps in 1997. The all-tube series received almost instant approval and quickly became staples in the backlines of top acts in all musical genres. Considered by many to be the go-to rock amp, the continuing demand for Dual Super Lead has led Marshall to introduce the new generation DSL series.

This DSL40CR all-tube, twin-channel combo can produce any classic Marshall sound — past or present. Four ECC83s in the preamp section (in concert with the amp's gain/master volume arrangement) combine with two EL34s in the power amp to provide the volume to blow the roof off most club gigs. With two channels, reverb, and an effects loop, the DSL20CR is all ready to rock. The adjustable power level lets you dial in cranked-amp tube tones that will thrill you without upsetting your neighbours and you can use the Softube speaker-emulated output for direct recording and monitoring. A refined EQ section gives you extremely versatile tone shaping, as you go all the way from clean to crunch to face melting high gain - all coming through a 12" Celestion V-type speaker. There's even a 2-way footswitch for channel switching and reverb on/off.
