This 2009 Marshall 1974X Combo is a hand-wired, all-tube beast that delivers all the vintage British crunch you need, thanks to the special "aged" 12" Celestion G12M-20 Greenback speaker which breaks up on you like its 1974 all over again! Features a two-channel design with a footswitchable Tremolo and a sturdy aluminum chassis that makes this amp perfect for gigging.
Marshall's Take:
The 18w 1974XTM is a re-issue of the 1974 produced between 1966 and 1968. Just like the original, the 1974X is valve driven, hand soldered, with an aluminium chassis, and has a Tremolo circuit. Its two-channel design includes volume, tone, speed and sensitivity on channel one, the tremolo channel and volume and tone controls on channel two. The special 12″ Celestion G12M-20 Greenback in the 1974X has been ‘aged’ to get as close as possible to that vintage, worn in sound of the 1974.
