  • Marshall AVT 100, Good buy?

    Has anyone here tried the Marshall AVT 100? I’m thinking about buying a new amp and this one seems pretty versatile (3 channels, digital effects). I’m looking for an amp that has good distortion and enough power for jamming with a drummer, and maybe to gig small clubs. The AVT 100 seems to be a good choice but I wanted to get some feedback and opinions from some people who have used them. The reviews on Harmony Central seem to be pretty good. I don’t really trust my judgment when trying things out in stores, I have tried out some gear that I have loved in the store and hated when I actually got it home.

    I have an AVT50, and have tried an AVT 100. They are ok, but i dont really like the distortion on them. the lowend sound like crap on them, but thats my opinion. I suggest trying one out for a long time at the store.

      However, tha Marshall Avt and Peavey Transtube are probably the best Valvestate amps, if you really want a valvestate.

          you are better off with a CRATE...
          they have amps that are very similar to the marshall avt's at a lower price...

          just my 2 cents.

              How are the Peavy Transtubes? I’ve seen some good things about them on this board. I’ll have to admit the only reason I was checking out Marshall Valvestates is because I read in an interview with Chuck Schuldiner that he used a Marshal Valvestate (how stupid is that). Marshall also has a pretty good reputation.
