1. INPUT jack
Use a good quality (screened) guitar cable to
plug your guitar in here.
2. Clean VOLUME control
When the OD Select switch is ‘out’, this
control adjusts the volume of the Clean
Channel. At low settings the sound will be very
clean with a bell-like ring. Turning this control
above half way will introduce a desirable,
bluesy distortion as the power amplifier is
driven into ‘crunch mode’.
3. OD (Overdrive) SELECT switch
Depressing the Overdrive Select Switch will
engage the Overdrive Channel.
4. Overdrive GAIN control
Turning up the Overdrive Gain Control will
increase the amount of distortion generated in
the Overdrive channel. Low gain settings will
produce classic rock and blues tones. Crank
the Gain for fat and aggressive sounds that are
perfect for soloing or hard rock and nu-metal
riffing.
5. Overdrive VOLUME control
Amazingly enough, this control adjusts the
volume of the Overdrive channel! The louder
this channel is set, the ‘looser’ the amplifier will
sound and feel. This behaviour is exactly what
a good all-valve amplifier does and is a result
of our proprietary FDD circuitry.
6. EQ BASS control
This control affects the bass or bottom end of
your sound. Increasing the bass control will add
warmth to your clean and balls to your
overdrive tones.
7. EQ CONTOUR control
This highly effective tone control works by
radically modifying the mid-range (body). The
tone can range from traditional and woody
sounding (setting at 10), to balls-to-the-wall
(setting at midway), to aggressive, ‘scooped’
and modern (setting at 0)…and all points in-
between.
8. EQ TREBLE control
This control affects the treble or top end of
your sound. Increasing the amount of treble will
give a glassy edge to your clean sounds and
increase the definition on low gain overdrive or
the amount of aggressive ‘fizz’ and ‘cut’ on high
gain tones.
9. Reverb LEVEL control
Increasing the Reverb Level control will mix
more of the naturally voiced spring reverb
signal into your sound – as you’ll find, you can
go from subtle to surf at the mere twist of this
control!
10. FDD (Frequency Dependant
Damping) Switch
Marshall’s proprietary FDD circuit accurately
mimics the way an all-valve amplifier interacts
with the loudspeaker and adds a width and
depth to your sound which has been
unachievable in an affordable solid-state
amplifier…until now!
11. CD IN & EMULATED LINE OUT
jack
The MG15MSII cleverly combine the Line Out
and CD Input functions. If you want to jam to
your favourite CD or tape, merely connect the
headphone output of your CD or tape player
here, adjust the CD / TAPE player’s volume to
match that of your guitar and ‘hey-presto’ –
you’ve got the perfect ‘play-along’ practice
system. Alternatively, you can use this socket
to connect the MG15MSII to your multi-track
recording machine and you’ll get a great
speaker emulated guitar sound direct to disk or
tape.
