Often considered a "sleeper" amp in the vintage Marshall market, players appreciate the 3203 for delivering classic British crunch—reminiscent of a JCM800 at more manageable volumes—paired with an effective pedal-platform clean channel.

  • Wattage: 30 watts
  • Design: Hybrid design featuring a solid-state preamp, a tube phase inverter, and a tube power section.
  • Tubes: Two EL34 power tubes and one 12AX7 (ECC83) tube.
  • Channels: Two footswitchable channels (Normal/Clean and Boost/Overdrive) 
  • Controls:
  • Normal Channel: Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble
  • Boost Channel: Volume, Gain, Tone
  • Master Section: Master Volume, Reverb 
  • Recently serviced and good to go. There was a mod done to add a gain stage to the clean channel. My tech said it was done properly, so we decided to keep it. I'm including a one button (Orange) foot switch to activate the true gain channel. Head weighs about 27 lbs.
