MS2 Battery-Powered Micro Guitar Amplifier

I can’t use my tube amps due to meth addicts loitering in my neighborhood. The MS-2 lets me play discreetly. The basic tone is Marshall all of the way. The clean channel does not have a lot of headroom, but I like it that way. The distort is akin to a JCM2000 on amber channel. It is very responsive to the volume control on the guitar. I will not judge its bass for its 3 inch speaker. It seems to sound best with single coils based on AB testing it on my split coil PRS McCarty. My 62 reissue Strat sounds great too. For what it is, excellent value and great choice for beginners to experienced players If you are a beginner, this is much better than what I stared with. Do not expect it to be a 100watt full Marshall stack It’s awesome though

On its own the Marshall ms2 doesn’t sound all that good. But put a boss metal zone pedal through it and it becomes a little beast of an amp. Battery lasts about five days of operation playing about three hours a day. It’s a high gain amp that needs a distortion pedal to sound good. Not very great at clean sounds as it breaks up as you turn up the volume. I love these little ms2s.

This mini guitar amp does what you want it to do and delivers the sound you would expect. It’s a good little amp for practice or as a gift. The sound is best when the batteries are new or if you plug it into a wall outlet. My main complaint is that it doesn’t come with a power cord, which would have been nice, but otherwise it works as advertised.

This was purchased as a gift from my guitar playing son. He loves it. He uses it when he travels and still wants to be able to plug in his electric to work on his playing or music he's writing. It is so compact and puts out a surprising clean loud sound for its size. Very easy to carry around and doesn't take hardly any packing space. This is not a full size amp - don't expect full size sound and conveniences. It's useful for practice, when you can't or don't want to make a lot of loud sound. This was probably the best gift dad and I could have given him on the budget we were on. This was a 2017 Christmas gift. He's had no problems with it at all. He highly recommends this.

I bought this with zero expectation of quality sound, it got me by surprise how clean and loud it can get with a 9v battery, specially if you use active EMG pickups with the overdrive on you are on for a treat. I plugged a Boss GT-1000 to it and it still holds the tone amazingly. Great for the price

Volume is very low on the over drive setting and not even audible on the clean channel. I had one of these years ago so I know they can get loud this one just doesn’t. Tested with 2 different guitars and 2 different cables just to make sure.

My granddaughter loves it

This is a pretty cool little Amp, but the sound I get out of mine is choppy, for lack of better term. In clean, it sounds okay; could be better. The OD is what's real choppy. No Metallica or Pantera with this IMO.

Elektro gitarim için almıştım.Baslangic için ideal ve taşınabilir olması güzel.

Ich brauchte einen kleinen Amp zum üben zu Hause, wollte jedoch nicht viel zu viel ausgeben, da ich letzendlich noch ein Anfänger bin. Dann habe ich den MS-2 von Marshall gefunden. Für weniger als 30€ bekommt man eine Box, die etwa so groß ist wie 2 aktuelle Smartphones nebeneinander. Marshall hat versucht, den Look und Feel von den größeren Brüdern, die man meistens auf der Bühne während Konzerten sieht, zu behalten. Ich würde sagen, dass das ihnen prima gelungen ist: der eigentliche Lautsprecher ist mit schwarzem Textil-Material bedeckt auf dem der Marshall-Logo geklebt ist. Die Knöpfe sind aus einem wertigen Material und sind leicht zu drehen, ohne billig zu wirken. Also von der Verarbeitungsqualität her ist der kleine Marshall top. Die 1 Watt Ausgangsleistung schien mir Anfangs wenig zu sein, aber nach einigen Stunden habe ich festgestellt, dass sie fürs üben Zimmer völlig ausreicht. Der Amp ist also laut genug. Wenn man jedoch nicht seine Mitbewohner stören möchte, gibt es einen Klinkenausgang für Kopfhörer - leider nicht als 3.5mm (Standard-) Jack, sondern als 6.35mm (Instrument-) Jack. Da bräuchte man also ein Adapter für, die sind jedoch ziemlich billig. Das einzige was mich hier stört (zumindest bei meinem Produkt) ist, dass er unangenehm bei hoher Lautstärke auf fast jeder Oberfläche vibriert - das kann man nur so lösen, wenn man ihn auf einem Teppich legt oder etwas ähnliches. Ich benutze ihn nie auf voller Lautstärke (weil er für mich dann zu laut wird) - deshalb kein Sternabzug. Es gibt 2 Modi zwischen denen man mithilfe des Power-Buttons schalten kann: Clean (ON) und Overdrive (OD). Es gibt nichts besonderes zum Clean Modus. Ich bin jedoch vom OD Modus begeistert - besonders bei meinem Fender Stratocaster HSS - Das rockt einfach ganz wild. Der MS-2 kommt mit einer 9V Batterie (keine wiederaufladbare), kann aber mit einem 9V power adapter (nicht mitgeliefert) ans Strom angeschlossen werden, jedoch finde ich, dass das ziemlich unnötig ist, da der MS-2 wegen der "Größe" eingentlich als tragbarer Amp benutzt werden sollte. Also für die 30€ gibt's wenig zu meckern zum MS-2. Die Verarbeitung ist einfach top, Lautstärke und Klang trotz der Größe gut. Besonders zum Üben sehr gut geeignet, wegen der Tragbarkeit wahrscheinlich auch für kleine Straßenauftritte angemessen (jedoch von mir nicht so getestet).

1. Looks spot on. 2. Sounds just like a Marshall should. ( Showed it to a friend who was super skeptical until we turned it on and played a riff. "It's a Marshall for sure" he said. 3. You can power it via a battery or a 9v adapter. (Brilliant thing if you ask me.) 4. The OD works so well I thought my ears were deceiving me. 5. Has a headphones out. Which is convenient if you ask me. Overall. I don't know what people don't seem to like about it. It's a mini amp. You know what you're buying. It will not fill a stadium but it will fill your room as you practice playing the guitar you bought back in college and life got in the way between you two.

Sound is good for what it is, but missing bass and the higher tones are a bit screechy. But i had low expectations and it definitely exceeded them. Perfect to just jam on the balcony without disturbing neighbours. Overdrive was a bit of a letdown though.

Som melhor que o esperado... Excelente pra estudar...
