In depth review this is part one of the Marshall AFD100 Amplifier. I wanted to show the amp inside and out so go ahead and see what this thing is really made of.
Please note that in this video I don't cover every last aspect of the unit - that is on my review on my website at www.tonymckenzi... and that written review includes conversations with Santiago Alvarez who is a designer at Marshall Amps in the UK. He contributed greatly to that written review and it covers many things not covered in this video review.
All video is copyright - do not download and remember to visit www.tonymckenzi... for more reviews including many not on RU-vid at all of guitars, amps, pedals and much more.

Tony amazing video as always. You are a true inspiration. My manager at work is 54 years old and has been bugging me for a year to help him get into guitar and finally the other day I took him to the local Music store and he bought his first guitar. I immediately told him about you, and all of your work and it really made him get inspired and get to work to learn his chords and stuff. I'll be showing him your videos next week. Thank you for being such a great musician and amazing person.

The Brigtness of this amp is Brutal ! Really didn't care for it . Great demo.

@tonymckenzieofficial 2 года назад

I can agree with that and its a comment many have made over the years since the review. Indeed I later sold it partially for the same reasoning - but they do still go for big bucks here. Thanks for watching.

@lousekoya1803 2 года назад

@@tonymckenzieofficial Thank you Tony for responding ! Very nice of you . Cheers from Quebec !

@diamonddust22 11 лет назад

Brother it is a true honor as always. I just sent 3 of your vids to a friend on the telecaster.

@AK101b 12 лет назад

Can't tell you how many times I've watched this, Tony. Really good stuff. Thanks for taking the time to do these. Take care buddy.

@Tuscan777 11 лет назад

Hey, only recently discovered your channel on here, love it! Really interesting to see inside the gear, as well as how they sound. Thanks for taking the time to do this.

@newkurosawa 13 лет назад

Nice review, thanks tony. My amp was despatched today, so all being well I should receive it soon. Can't wait.

@keaulana1 12 лет назад

ohh yeah I started reading about that amp. and it is still available. the AFD is gone already. thanks man!

@Nghilifa 13 лет назад

Great review so far, I'm definitely getting this amp. Even though I'm a fan of Slash's playing, I feel that this amp is just a good Rock 'N' Roll amp in General

@bigeddie38 12 лет назад

I got one of these recently out of curiosity and over time I just can't get away with how thin it sounds. I'm running it through a 1960av but the amout of treble is just too much for me. Features wise I think it's great, I just wish it was more tweakable or do you know of a mod that can be done to overcome this treble issue. I guess a lot of people are going to reply with 'why did you buy it', well I got it for the features really. Really wish it could be thickened up a bit.

Buy a boss eq Or mxr eq. That's what he did with all his Marshall's.

@hardrockerdave94 13 лет назад

That tone is awesome, nice playing too man

@indeedido 13 лет назад

@SomeDudeDan 13 лет назад

Thanks for the review! I'm can't wait to get mine :) Greetings from Hungary!

@indeedido 13 лет назад

@tonymckenziecom I think you misunderstood me. I was referring to the internal shots of the amps circuits, ie the guts of the amp.

@budubum 11 лет назад

iv been through your website. cool one i say. i was actually talking about the marshall production. they never mentioned ken`s name. marshall wanted his work there and ken only wanted his name be credited for it in return for his work. marshall never mentioned his name of any sort.

@andyrgale 13 лет назад

@tonymckenziecom That's the whole point of it the power limiter, you are supposed to get great cranked sounds at any volume, Plexis sound great flat out - which is in most instances is way too loud, this addresses that issue, we'll see what you reckon in your full review :)

@andyrgale 13 лет назад

Thanks for the review, but reviewing your review I note that you don't even properly mention the cool auto biasing / power tube distortion at low volumes, the main groundbreaking feature of the amp - you found the input jack more interesting than that pcb when looking inside ...

@philipdowns4176 9 лет назад

Hi Tony, any chance you can do a video on chokes and what they do. Why they affect the sound?

@MRESL57 10 лет назад

great stuff tony!! any chance of a review and sound demo of the marshall dsl5c mate?

@tonymckenzieofficial 10 лет назад

Hi Robert, sorry I don't have one :( and right now I'm working on other stuff... maybe later, but that list is a big one. In any case thanks for watching.

@MRESL57 10 лет назад

cheers buddy!! keep on rippin it up love your reviews!!

@GunsNRosesliveson 13 лет назад

Is that the second row or the first row of speaker inputs

@dewycatt2112 11 лет назад

I discovered this great slash/tone/mod with a simple pedal i just bought. An MXR 78' Badass...$80 Bucks Jack! and you got your Magical 80's tone!

@inventhead 11 лет назад

change the treble cap it should be near or on pot. for less its a higher cap uf not sure wats in it but if its a .01 uf try a 103-105 uf.i would put a switch in soo you can go back anay time if you got the print i can tell you what to change. jam on

@MrJDinop 13 лет назад

don't you void the warranty opening it up like that?..

@GunsNRosesliveson 13 лет назад

Goin to sound stupid but which plug would I plug a single 8ohm cab in to thank you so much

@GunsNRosesliveson 13 лет назад

Stupid question but I have afd100 if I was plug in one 8ohm cab which output do I plug I'n thank you

@budubum 11 лет назад

the only thing kevin o connor wanted for the power scaling without payment was to have his name on it. marshall did fuck him up on that one.

@azlakki 8 лет назад

Hi Tony, I have one and it's really bad ass.Those stock power tubes, do you know who is the manufacturer?

@tonymckenzieofficial 8 лет назад

+azlakki Tubes are probably Chinese from the factory .... thanks.

@DarrenJohnson1973 13 лет назад

I love my JVM, your website couldn`t be found when i tried the link, and sounds great through my Jem, eahch to their own, so what if it doesn`t have a proper choke, youtube reviews are always hit and miss anyway everybody hears differently. it seems to me you spend alot of money looking for negatives.

@marcogiampa283 4 года назад

is the chassis only secured with the screws for the back panel, and is actualy secured with the 4 on the bottom?

@tonymckenzieofficial 4 года назад

Yes... just like all the others. Thanks.

@al3d35 13 лет назад

Thanks Tony for taking the TIME to do this reviews. Don't bothers with the A-HOles posting, they are kinda like magets...always around ...what can you do..:)

@KrisPlaysGuitar 13 лет назад

whens part 2?

@edberger4679 9 лет назад

Hey Tony, how does this sound compared to the JS JVM???

@tonymckenzieofficial 9 лет назад

+Ed Berger The AFD sounds decidedly more toppy. Also once you set the EQ nicely for one channel, change channels and it sounds wrong (at least to me). The JS JVM is exceptionally good. Hope it helps.

@edberger4679 9 лет назад

Thanks man !

@azlakki 8 лет назад

+Ed Berger AFD100 is brash, unforgiving and ruthless. Really nice rock amp, really good gig amp, knobs to the northeast and that's it, if you need or want to play hard, if you want to hear what you play in a band, if you want that other players hear what you play, if you want the audience hears what you play, do you want it sounds good, get one and you'll find that all other amps you can throw into the lake...also JS-JVM.I had the JS-JVM, it was like mosquitoes, afd100 is like an earthquake, JVM is a versatile and AFD100 is one trick pony but it's so cool! so what things are important to you

@TheGamerx584 7 лет назад

why are they shielded ?

@tonymckenzieofficial 7 лет назад

Often to reduce internal induced hum or sometimes as CE standards - if I got the question correct... thanks for watching.

@TheGamerx584 7 лет назад

where can I find these amps now adays ?

@tonymckenzieofficial 7 лет назад

The AFD100 is discontinued and is rising in price slowly these days on places like eBay or Reverb.com as is the YJM100 (Malmsteen) head. Both were very limited manufacture.

Hey Tony, what can you tell us about how it cleans up? I noticed a majority of guys do straight to 10 sounds, and sometimes they "back off" the volume although we never get to know if it's on 7, 4 or 1. Some amps loose dynamics on ten, and when you try to back off the volume on full drive, nothing happens until you reach 2. How does AFD fare in that regard?

@tonymckenzieofficial 8 лет назад

+Frostensen It will clean up with the volume for sure... but you can get cleans of course. Ultimately remember though that this amp is very 'toppy' and when one channel is 'right' the other is 'off ' - at least that was my conclusion after using it for some time. That fact caused me to eventually sell it. Hope these comments help and thanks for watching.
