Speaker never pushed beyond volume level 3. Loved having effects on the amp itself. Nice grungy dirty channel but crappy marshall electronics. Fixable though. Can hear dirty channel through headphone jack (not all the time though) but not clean channel. Was never really used because I had second amp. So when I tried to turn it on for the second guitar - no sound. Most probably resistor need replacing.

Prefer pickup but will post by courier if you really want it. I use e-go and would be around $30-50 for shipping. Message for a quote (and I will wrap it up for free).

Just taking up space, please buy it. Or a nice bottle of gin?? I don't want to throw it because even with all the crappy reviews, this amp was very good for the price I paid. Hit and miss with marshall mg series.

MG15, 30 and 100 were decent solid state amps except for the shotty electrics (from India I think) hence the bad reviews but sound was very good for the price you paid. Nice old school grunge was what they were known for and decent clean with some extra simple effects (delay, reverb etc) just to play with. Remember it was marshall's entry level amps - so in terms of tube modelling was pretty average.

Some got lucky and had no reliability issues others didn't. That's why it was a hit and miss and poor reliability review. I was part of the first lot for first 2 years where it worked fantastic..then 3 years of no use I decided to turn it on...

Great modding platform - celestion maybe, eminence, or ram-rod 10" speakers for the british crunch. Beginner's amp definitely not tube
