The Marshall MG Series MG Series MG30CFX 30W 1x10 Guitar Combo Amp is an ideal amp for practicing and even performing in small to medium settings. Boasting a bold, carbon fiber-clad look, solid digital effects, and the MG Series' critically acclaimed, analog tonal heart, the MGCF Series has arrived and is already the practice amp choice of some of the world's leading players.

Channel Selection

The amplifier has 4 channels - Clean, Crunch, OD-1 &OD-2.Pressing the Clean/Crunch switch (3) selects between the Clean (Green Light) and Crunch (Red Light)channels.Pressing the OD-1/OD-2 switch (5) selects between the OD-1 (Green Light) and OD-2 (Red Light) channels. When moving from an OD channel to a Clean/Crunch channel, the unit remembers the last channel you were in before leaving. E.g. If you have moved from the Crunch Channel to an OD channel and you press the Clean/Crunch switch (3), the amplifier will revert back to the Crunch channel - rather than starting again in the Clean channel.

Modes

The amplifier operates in two modes - Preset and Manual.

Preset

This is the factory default operation of the amplifier.In Preset mode the position of all controls except Master Volume (13) are stored within each channel. Each channel should be considered a preset.

Manual

In manual mode the amp’s settings always match the physical positions of the controls. Changing channel only changes the channel, NO presets are recalled, NO other controls are altered.

Reverb & FX

The amplifier provides two simultaneous digital effects, Reverb (Studio or Spring) and one of five FX (Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, Delay or Octave)

Reverb

The Reverb control (8) sets the amount of signal sent to either one of the two reverb options - Studio or SpringWhen the Reverb control (8) is set to ‘0’ the reverb is switched off, the status of the reverb is also indicated on the optional footcontroller.

FX

The FX control is essentially split into five segments and selects the type of FX and adjusts its associated settings - except in the case of Octave which has a simple setting.When the FX control is set to ‘0’ the FX are switched off, the status of the FX is also indicated on the optional foot controller.
