Marshall MS-2 Mini Guitar Amplifier Review
March 14th, 2006
Ever want to take your electric guitar somewhere but hate lugging around your amp? Well the Marshall Micro Stack MS-2 Mini amp packs all the punch and tone of a Marshall half stack in a 14cmx11cmx6cm package. It sports the classic Marshall look yet is small enough to fit into your guitar case. The MS-2 includes 1-watt of raw output power, a volume knob, a tone knob, and a headphone output port. There is a switch for moving between clean and overdrive modes, but for independent gain control you’ll have to move up to the MS-4 full stack. The unit is powered by a single 9-volt battery and comes with a fancy belt clip.
There are three different versions of the amp available. All have the same technical specifications; the difference is in the look. The MS-2 has the standard Marshall look of white on black with a gold faceplate. The MS-2R is the same but bares a blood-red color. For a classic look the MS-2C is decorated with a checkered fret cloth and gold Marshall logo.
To sum up the features:
- 14cmx11cmx6cm size
- 1-watt output power
- Single tone knob for full treble to bass focus
- Single volume knob
- Switch for clean and overdriven
- Headphone jack
- Powered by a 9-volt battery
- 3 color schemes to choose from
For more power and a full stack look you can go with the MS-4. This amp also provides a gain control knob.
