Product Description
- The Iconic "Plexi" Sound and its history The Marshall 1987X recreates the iconic tones of the hallowed 87 "Plexi" amp which has become a staple of rock and roll history. The original "Plexi" amps were designed in the 1960s and quickly gained a reputation for their powerful dynamic sound that helped define the sound of rock and roll. By 1987 the manufacturing and component process of Marshall had changed over time resulting a in a distinct "Plexi" sound that remains a favourite of guitarists around the world today. And fortunately the 1987X captures that revered sound in all its glory saving you the trouble of trawling through vintage gear. Hi and Low Channels Preamp and Power Valves One of the standout features of the 1987X is its dual-channel design. The amp has both high and low channels each with its own set of preamp and power tubes. The high channel is perfect for lead work providing plenty of gain and sustain while the low channel is great for cleaner tones and rhythm playing. Modern footswitch and FX Loop features While the 1987X is a faithful reissue of a classic amplifier it also includes some modern features that make it more versatile and practical for todays guitarists. One of these features is the included footswitch which allows you to switch between the high and low channels on the fly. This is perfect for live performance where you need to quickly change your sound between songs. Another modern feature of the 1987X is its true bypass effects loop. This allows you to connect your favorite pedals or effects units and place them in the signal chain as desired. The effects loop is fully adjustable so you can set the level and mix of your effects to match your preferences.
