Explanation
An unembellished, clean sound that
minimizes the amp's idiosyncrasies,
such as its trebly character and
boomy low end.
An amp with a broad frequency
range and an extremely flat re-
sponse. Good for acoustic guitar.
Crunch sound that allows the
nuances of your picking to be
expressed even more faithfully than
on conventional combo amps.
Great-feeling crunch sound that
responds well to picking dynamics
while retaining all the defining
characteristics of a 4 x 12" speaker
cabinet.
High-gain sound of a vintage
Marshall specially revamped in a
way that is possible only with COSM
modeling technology.
A straightforward drive sound
that is suitable for a wide range of
situations from backing to lead, and
which could not be obtained from
previous combo amps or stack amps.
A new type of sound that smoothes
out the uneven frequency response
that is typical of existing large stack
amps.
A large stack sound that has been
tweaked extensively in the pursuit of
the ultimate metal sound.
