Marshall Class 5?

Anyone have any experience with this amp?

I'm looking for a small tube guitar amp for home and this looks like one to consider. Made in the UK and inexpensive!

Wow!!! Only FOUR knobs on a Marshall!!!

Hence, low price.

Wow, looks like a very cool little Marshall. I think the MSRP is $560

It looks to me like a "Baby BABY Bluesbreaker," since they already have the 18 watt 1974X as the "Baby Bluesbreaker."

I obviously haven't played a Class 5 yet......but in the 5-watt category, I think you'd be hard pressed to top the Laney Lionheart L5t-112

Other than the cheesy name, it's a killer sounding amp that does nicely from bedroom to small gig. Plus, larger speaker and reverb.

Just got a Vox Night Train and Cab VERY VERY Cool, as well as inexpensive

No experience with the Marshall, but I recently got a Vox AC4 that fits my home bill perfectly. I got the 110 combo and the 112 extension cab(for this and any of my other amps)and find the versatility to be there on it's own, and when run with pedals. Cool lil amp
The Night Train is also supposed to be a killer amp, but haven't heard one of those either.

I finally tried a Class 5 the other day. It was OK, but didn't really leave me very enthused. I know they were going for a very simple control layout, but with only one Volume control, you have to crank it to the crunch zone. I then tried a 15 watt Rivera Venus 3 in the same store - three times the price of the Marshall, but wow!!!
