I think overdrive pedal would be best choice for you, SD-1 is cheap and works amazing, I use it ON all the time and it's last in chain, there is something in the overdrive pedals that kills that fizz at normal levels. You won't get the same effect with only EQ in the loop, I tried it. Master volume ...

Welcome to whole new MA world Phano :Thumbs I have spent so many time on this forum and others explaining this amazing change that MA can go trough with just an overdrive pedal in effects loop, and again, I have no idea why that fizz goes away but it sure makes a difference. Then I saw some guys doi...

Well you sure can buy some new curtains to divert from SD-1 incident, she won't notice your new yellow box , LOL Clean channel stays clean, until maybe 7-8 on volume, but you can balance it with overdrive channel very nice. Think of this as lets say TSL60 controls, balance everything in preamp secti...

Boss GT10 is great indeed, but I have stopped using those units, I quit my band so I don't need too much effects on tap, just good old Marshall crunch :bgrin But interesting the way you use it, amazing how much setups change from player to player. I had GAS for Ice 9 for some time, it sure looks ama...

Yeah mate, women are same when it comes to tubes amps and more :bgrin Typical conversation goes like this... w: Does it really need to be that loud? me:Hell yeah, it is a tube Marshall, that's how it works... w:How come you listen to records at lower volume, they use same boxes as you?... me: Well, ...

I have recently started using my SD-1 pedal in effects loop as a master volume control, lowering output level on pedal and cranking volume on amp gain channel to 8-9. Sounds really good at reasonable volumes, and once you balance preamp volumes on clean and gain channel, it's easy to go full blast o...

Hi there, I just recorded stuff with MA, found some old mic around, ill post more later, I hope you like this one.

I have changed all preamp tubes to Tung-Sol, kinda liked them more than stock ones, also tried Electroharmonix in V1 position, wasn't impressed by difference, TungSol's were best tubes for my taste. Clean channel is great indeed, but I really spend 90% of my playing time in the overdrive section. :y...

I think you would hear more difference is you swapped for some other Celestions, like V30, greenbacks...character of Ax-75 and GT75 are same, and this just makes sense. You can pay like double the price but if speakers are voiced similar, it ain't gonna be a life changing experience at all, subtle c...

I guess that's what this boost thing was all about in those early MA's, volume and gain boost, for solos. But you can get more out of it with boost in effects loop, or EQ pedal, experiment with the amp and you can find many new sounds. I personally use now boost function as a third channel, for solo...

Well I don't know about the revoiced MA's but this one I have has just being revoiced by a Digitech Bad Monkey pedal! I bought this pedal cause I saw some good reviews and it's cheap, so I said lets try this green box....and it changed my amp totally. Set it in front , volume full and gain maybe sli...

I have Boss SD-1 in the loop engaged all the time, volume full...gain zero, it doesn't really boosts anything,I think it even lowers thing a bit, but it changes the way gain channel sounds, I can't explain why but it kills the fizzy top end completely. It acts as some sort of filter maybe

There is that bleed on gain channel, I think Steve explained it on this forum , it's normal, well not on every amp but it's not a faulty amp you have, don't worry, I have that too on my MA100C.
Clean channel doesn't come trough at zero volume though.

Hi dk2 , I have MA100C , and as said before, crank the sucker and enjoy Marshall roar. :party My SD-1 pedal set for clean boost is always on in effects loop, and I have EQ pedal in front for preamp boosting , and it sounds amazing. I will probably change the speakers, but stock ones are not that bad...

I just made new video of my MA100C in action. I have settled on this setup for my sound and enjoy every second of playing. In effects loop Boss SD-1 as clean boost , in front Ge-7 Eq pedal set for full boost and it really gives the preamp an egde, for me much better than turning amps gain. Amp setti...
