MARSHALL 2266 VINTAGE MODERN 50-WATT AMPLIFIER HEAD

The Best Modern AND Vintage Marshall Tones in One Amp!
The Marshall 2266 Vintage Modern 50-watt all-tube amplifier head uses a single channel with a choice of two footswitchable "dynamic ranges." The Low range gives you the tone and gain of a stock vintage Marshall amp. The High range on the 2266 head adds an extra preamp tube to the signal path, providing some tasty classic rock tones. Go from sparkling chime to compressed overdrive with a tap of the footswitch, and add your favorite outboard effects to the signal path via a series effects loop (with level selector) built into the versatile 2266 head.

description

Offering an all-tube single channel design, dual Low/High selectable frequency spectrums, and onboard goodies like a mid-boost button and digital plate reverb, the Marshall Vintage Modern 2266 Head summons classic tone in a contemporary package. The 12AX7-powered preamp and KT66 power amp get you creamy, saturated tone with the option to kick in another valve in the preamp to send your sound searing into '70s hard rock territory. An affordable avenue into the iconic world of Marshall tone. 

This is a more sophisticated version of what you would have on a Super Lead if you used a short jumper lead to activate both preamps. Here, the two gain controls are frequency selective, letting you precisely tailor the amount of drive for the guitar's upper and lower registers. Next to the preamp gains are two pushbuttons: one activates a healthy mid-range boost, the other is called Dynamic Range and activates a gain boost for increased distortion. 

The rest of the front panel is self-explanatory - three-band EQ, presence, a post-phase inverter master volume and a level control for the Vintage Modern's digital reverb. On the back panel, there's a series effects loop with pushbutton switches for loop level and bypass, a jack socket for the two-button footswitch that controls the gain boost and reverb, and a pair of speaker jacks with an impedance selection switch.
