Powerful Stage Tone
The Marshall DSL100HR is a 100 watt valve head driven by EL34 valves for that classic Marshall 'British' tone. This amp goes beyond most rock amplifiers, and has 4 available gain settings to choose from, instantly switchable via a footswitch. With the 100 watts of valve power and 4 channels, this amplifier is a powerful and versatile unit that would make a great amp for the stage, studio or rehearsal room. Power level control and an emulated output provide modern touches that make the DSL100HR even more versatile.
4 Gain Levels
The Marshall DSL Amp Head has two switchable channels with independent gain and volume levels. Each channel has two voices, meaning you have access to 4 gain modes and a huge variety of overdrive levels. This can create crystal clean sounds, vintage edge-of-breakup tones, crunch rhythm sounds, and full-on saturation for solos and rock/metal riffing. These 4 modes provide a great deal of versatility and makes the DSL100HR the ideal live performance amp, where you need every tone available at the click of a switch.
Sculpt Your Sound
The DSL100HR has a versatile 3-band EQ (improved for 2018) with independent presence and resonance controls to match your guitar tonality and room acoustics. The amp also has a reverb circuit with independent channel level control. The master volume is split into 2 levels that you can preset for a boost during solos.
These functions let you sculpt your tone and perform on stage with just your guitar and amp stand-alone. The reverb adds a lush ambience, the EQ shapes your sound, the 4 gain levels cover every overdrive tone, and the switchable volume levels give you a solo boost: besides a possible few choice effects pedals, there really isn't much more you need for live performance.
Varied Volume
Its set of EL34 valves drive provides players with an incredibly assertive tone, ensuring your guitar will be heard over your band. Should the volume level be too much, the high and low power settings let you optimise the output power. Marshall has developed this technology so that, rather than removing valves from the output (as is traditional in low-power modes), the DSL100 fully optimises and reduces the output to every valve. This means you're left with the same organic and natural valve tone, just at a reduced level.
Softube Emulation
Marshall's partnership with software developers Softube has led to the DSL range being equipped with Softube emulation technology. This gives you a direct connection to the amplifier, which sends out the sound of a professionally mic'd Marshall 1960 cabinet. This signal can be used to send your tone directly to a mixing desk for a no-fuss and consistently great sound to use at a gig. The Softube output also makes recording a simple-task, when you can be guaranteed of a fantastic cabinet sound without having to worry about microphone placement and room acoustics.
