ENGLISH

1. Input Jack
Plug your guitar in here.
2. Boost Switch
Switches the combo from clean to distortion.
Switch in gives distortion - Switch out gives clean.
3. Gain
This controls the amount of distortion in your
guitar sound. With the Boost Switch out you will
notice your sound crunching up at higher gain
settings, ideal for vintage blues or classic rock.
For maximum distortion, push the Boost Switch in
and turn the Gain Control full up.
4. Contour
The Contour control shifts the mid-range
frequencies in your guitar tone. By turning the
Contour control fully anti-clockwise you will scoop
most of the middle frequencies out of your sound,
ideal for thrash tones if combined with high gain
settings. By turning the control fully clockwise
you can get some great fusion type tones.
Experiment with this control to find your favourite
settings.
5. Volume
Controls the overall volume of the amp.
6. Headphone Jack
Plug your headphones in here. This will
disconnect the internal speaker.
7. LED
Indicates the operating status of the amp. Red
indicates that the amp is switched on.
8. Power Switch
Switches the mains power to the combo on/off.
From Jim Marshall
I would like to thank you personally for selecting
one of our Marshall MG Series guitar combos.
Your new amplifier has been designed by the same
team of British designers who created all of the
great Marshall amps. It is built to the customary
exacting Marshall standards and will give you an
incredible spectrum of sounds to complement a
wide range of playing styles, as well as being
designed to stand the test of time.
The Marshall name has adorned many of Britain’s
finest amps, from the early 1960’s through to the
present day. Some of the original vintage amps
have become highly sought after by both amp
collectors and working guitarists alike.
This new line of transistor guitar and bass guitar
combos have been released to unanimous acclaim.
Your combo is part of a new breed of Marshall
amplifier, which has benefited from years of
experience and continual investment in research and
development.
Not only is the sound quality of your Marshall MG
Series amp of a standard that you would only expect
to come from our own design team, you will also
find that the front panel is exceptionally easy to
understand and intuitive to use.
I would like to wish you every success with your
new Marshall MG Series amplifier, which I am sure
you will find a pleasure to play for years to come.
Yours Sincerely,
