How do you intend to use it?
A POD or the VOX amPlug might be a solution too if you don't need speakers. If headphones is OK. http://www.voxamps.co.uk/amplug/. The tiny Marshal is ... OK for the size but don't expect that much of it. -------------------- Schecter C1 Hellraiser EMG 81/85, replaced with JB/Jazz (SH4/SH2n) w. coilsplit Schecter Revenger HB-105, replaced with EMG 81/85 Stratocaster Deluxe Players Noiseless Ibanez 2550z Blackstar HT5H, Blackheart BH5H w.

QUOTE (ZakkWylde @ May 26 2008, 01:51 PM)  Yeah but I would not recommend that little marshall amp although I love Marshall amps in general. The mini stack by marshall sounds bad and is not very loud (it does not even sound like a Marshall). It's not worth the money. The battery amps I suggested sound suprisingly good for their size and are loud aswell. They are also modeling amps with built in effects so you can pretty much get every tone you want from them. I can agree 100% with that comment on the Marshall amp. It sounds terrible! -------------------- Guitars: Schecter Stiletto Classic, Jackson SLSMG, Ibanez RG-380 Japan, Gibson Les Paul Studio

Another good choice would be a MicroCube. I've heard the little thingy work and it is very loud and decent sounding.

I'd stay away from the mini-marshall too, I had one many years ago, and if they are anything similar now a days they are not worth it.
I also recommend a Roland micro cube or vox DA5 for small amps OR the already suggested pod/pandora route. -------------------- Guitars:

I've heard the same thing about it many times. Kinda weird that Zakk Wylde promotes them so much. Kurt Cobain used to put one in his backline sometimes. He didn't really go for Marshall gear though and it wasn't plugged in and was mostly there as a joke.

I must stand down from my advice to get a Marshall. I too am aware that it is a bad mini amp. But just wanted to give all the options! Don't kill me guys

Don't kill me guys No worries Ivan, we understand that with your ultra-skills even the mini-marshall sounds so good, and that makes it hard to find the ugly amps lurking out there Leave that to us!  -------------------- Guitars:
