DSL5CR Combo

Product Information

The DSL is now more versatile than ever, with new features including discrete master volume controls for each channel, and built-in reverb.

Whether it's bright, clean sounds you're after, creamy overdriven tones, or super-saturated distortion, the DSL5CR has got you covered. Each channel has individual Gain and Volume controls, and share the powerful 3-band EQ, allowing you to sculpt the perfect tone with ease. Not only that, but the fabulous Deep Switch control from previous DSL models is still present, and there's even a Low/High power switch for you to alter the amp's output (from 5 Watts to 2.5 Watts), giving you even more sonic possibilities.The clean channel is very nice, goes from mild, jazzy tones to crunchy stuff with that classic Marshall ring to it. You should get an instant answer on whether your application has been successful, though in some rare cases Klarna or V12 may need to look at the application in more detail. However, the Classic Gain channel takes pedals extremely well and goes from clean to scream with a wide variety of dirt boxes, and the Ultra Gain, as stated before, smooths put considerably when the speaker is broken in. It gets all the Marshall sounds I could ever want to get, and the digital reverb is very usable at all levels. Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered. The DSL5CR features two foot switchable channels: CLASSIC GAIN and ULTRA GAIN. The CLASSIC GAIN channel can deliver sparkling clean sounds through to the more aggressive break-up of a Marshall JCM800 amplifier. The ULTRA GAIN channel provides even more distortion and break-up for players looking high gain tone from their amplifier.

Marshall's partnership with Softube® has led to the creation of award-winning plug-ins, as well as exceptional tone in Marshall's CODE digital amps. The same team is responsible for the development of the new emulated output feature, found in the DSL series. Both the headphone out, and line out on the DSL models boast incredibly accurate emulation of the famed 1960 cabinet. NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. The DSL5CR is a 5W 1x10" valve combo with digital reverb; building on the tried-and-tested DSL formula, this compact combo delivers great valve sound at low levels but responds with analogue warmth when pushed! It's loaded with a single 10" Celestion Ten-30 speaker for a smooth, accurate response. You've got two channels at your disposal: classic gain and ultra gain, both of which do exactly what they say on the tin! The classic gain is warm but clear with two controls (gain and volume), and extremely responsive to adjustments, whereas the ultra gain allows you to tip into that full-pelt Marshall distortion that's so widely adored. The ultra gain channel does exactly what it says, it's either full on saturated goodness or nothing at all. Around 7 it starts to produce that sweet saturation we all love: aggesive, extrordinary for palm mutes, it's like having a roaring JCM 800 in your room, but bellow 7 it chokes, it's undefined and to aggresive for blues, it wants you to crank it. Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty

Marshall DSL5CR, "Dual Super Lead" All-Valve 5-Watt Combo Amplifier for Guitar, with Built-in Reverb Set up both classic and ultra-gain tones with Marshall’s two channels. Each of these come with their own independent gain and volume controls, allowing you to get the perfect balance between overdrive level and volume. Craft the ideal range of levels. From crystal clean through to the edge-of-breakup and onto full-on saturation. The DSL5CR has a 3-band EQ for full tone sculpting and a reverb control to add a sympathetic ambience. The tone is generated by real valves so you can be sure you'll be getting real saturation and organic responses. The sound is focused through a Celestion Ten-30 10'' speaker that gives the perfect balance between portability and projection. Softube emulation I got my first tube amp for home use and I was so happy with it that I wanted to recomend it. (I play it with my Epi Dot with Pearly Gates set, and Squier Mustang. No pedals) The Marshall DSL40CR is part of the DSL Series of amplifiers, all-valve heads and combos that deliver classic Marshall tone and build quality. These amplifiers all boast a Classic and Ultra Gain Channel, giving musicians the option of pristine cleans to aggressive overdrives and anything in-between. Each channel also has a dedicated Master Volume control, perfect for those explosive set-piece solo moments. All the models in the range also provide an emulated output for recording purposes and a power reduction feature.

Trusted Shops Unlike the previous-generation DSL5C, this new one has reverb (thus the R), which is great if you don't feel like dealing with pedals and improves its portability, and it also has separate gain and master volume for the clean channel, making that channel genuinely useful. The high-gain channel goes from crunchy to metal. It's quite loud at 5 watts but you can switch it to 0.5 watts, which will let you turn the volume up to 5 or more without bothering other people in your household or building. Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.

Both channels share a passive three-band EQ, with BASS, MIDDLE and TREBLE controls. The EQ section also features Tone Shift, which when activated reconfigures the pre-amp mid frequencies making DSL ideal for contemporary metal tones, especially when combined with higher gain settings. Really just a great amp all around. It's nice to have an amp sound this good without blowing your ear drums out. It has a good range of tones, Marshalls have a tendency to sound muddy and bottom heavy but this amp really has plenty of clarity and high end. The high gain channel sounds great, an overdrive pedal really isn't necessary other than a boost. The clean channel takes pedals great but there is definitely a serious dip in volume between the clean and overdrive channels. You can reduce power to 0.5w and use the emulated output making this amp is ideal for those quieter moments. The DSL5C features professional quality digital REVERB and a series FX LOOP. The LOW POWER function adds a further dimension to the DSL sound, giving you rich valve tone at an ear-friendly volume. The DSL5 Combo is loaded with a 10” Celestion Ten-30 speaker chosen for its ability to deliver exceptional tone at lower volumes.
