This Marshall 2061X "Lead and Bass 20" head is a hand- wired amplifier and represents some of Marshall's finest, recent work. It's similar to the 1974 in that it uses EL84 tubes for power, but is diode-rectified instead of using a tube. The difference is that the power supply is more consistently regulated in the Lead and Bass 20 and so there is little or no "sag" in the feel of the amp like a tube rectified model would produce when driven hard. This amp also has two channels that can be linked, but in the case of the 2061X, channel one is specifically voiced as the "Lead" channel, while channel two is voiced for "Bass". This allows for even a bit more flexibility tone-wise than from what can be obtained from the 1974X. Each channel includes its own Tone and Volume controls and there is no tremolo on this model. As a result, there are just two preamp tubes used instead of three within the chassis. It is the perfect piece for players looking for fantastic vintage rock and blues tones from an amplifier that is truly touch-responsive. Please call or email with any questions!
