The Dual Super Lead amps have long been a staple of the Marshall range, since launching in the '90s to great critical acclaim. Known for their ultra-versatile sound as well as their surprising proficiency with high-gain sounds, they eventually came to be hailed as a modern classic. Now Marshall have unveiled the latest generation of DSLs - offering everything you loved about the originals but with several tweaks aimed at the modern player!
The DSL1HR is a 1W valve head with digital reverb; this tiny but mighty amp delivers great valve sound at low levels. It follows a near-identical formula for the DSL1R combo, with two channels at your disposal: classic gain and ultra gain, both of which do exactly what they say on the tin! The classic gain is warm but clear, and extremely responsive to adjustments, whereas the ultra gain allows you to tip into that full-pelt Marshall distortion that's so widely adored.
One of the niftiest features of the DSL1R is the Softube-designed emulated output, which allows top-class cab simulation for direct-out recording. You can even disconnect your cab for fully silent recording or practicing!
