Lol
As far as solid state bedroom amps go, you can’t complain. While the clean tone leaves a lot to be desired and the amp’s EQ controls are very rudimentary, the distortion is awesome. It gives you the nasty, fuzzy solid state distortion that we all know and love. Amazing bedroom amplifier, but it kind of ends there.

it's okay, there is better amps
This thing is ok but it weighs a ton and the clean sound is not very good but i don't really care, it sounds great. Also, i hate to say it but this thing has a tendency to make your guitar go silent. it sounds ok and it also has a brilliant distortion channel. I crank the gain on it way too much, it sounds really raspy on occasion. I recommend to punk, grunge and funk players

I forgot to mention this but if you are one of those people that likes to plug their acoustic into an electric amp, do NOT try plugging into this amp. It sounds rubbish when you plug an acoustic into this amp

We're you using an acoustic/electric, or was it one of those external acoustic pick ups? Not sure if related, just curious.

My Ovation has an acoustic pickup but I don't use it because it eats away loads of battery.

A practice amp that packs a punch
Charlie.EXE's first guitar amp. This practice amp packs powerful overdrive and provides amazing british-style tone

Perfect For Home Practice
I'm using it for about 9 years and I haven't need anything more. Its durability is so good too. Dust, humidity and irregular electricity current couldn't breake it.

my first amp
not a good sound individually, but when matched to the fender amp adds to make a dirty gritty sound

This Marshall MG10CD is owned by Frank Iero
Backstage/bus practice amp while touring with My Chem." - Frank
From the manual of the MG10kk, page 2: "During the development of the JCM800 2203KK,Kerry's signature Marshall Head, he often mentioned his use of the MG10CD, one always on tour with him and one always kept at home. With this in mind I decided that we would extend our thanks and produce an MG10KK, a special edition MG10CD echoing the design of the 2203KK."

At 0:58 in Wilbur's soft boy music video, a circle appears with Wilbur turning on an amp while the song builds to the chorus. If you look at the amp, it immediately looks like a typical marshall combo amp but if you look closer, it says "10cd" on the amp, and the only Marshall Amp that has that in its name is the mg10cd gold.
