RE: Marshall DSL 401 vs. MG100HDFX

I think if you looked around, it wouldn't be too hard to find a used Marshall 1960a cab for about $350-$500.

Then get a used MG100HDFX for about $250 or so. And you would have an excellent half-stack for not a lot of $$$.

Then you'd have some great Marshall tone while you saved for an all tube Marshall head. Cause eventually you'll probably want one.

I just never cared for the DSL 401 at all. I found it too harsh sounding. Even with an extension cab.

I personally prefer an MG100HDFX through a 1960a cab over a DSL 401 any day!

But that's just me.

Let me know whatever you end up getting. And whatever it is..... I hope you enjoy it!!
