Best demo--EVER. Now an even bigger fan of Bonamassa.

Joe is a real dude. Love hearing what he has to say and love his playing.

Regardless of what people say this is now one of the best selling combos in its price range. It is fizzy but a speaker change takes the fiz away. For the price it's a good amp and very well made.

Joe and Marshall true blues legends

Everything works great on 10....oh yeah!

Played one of the limited edition models of this today, super good amp but I can't even fathom how loud it'd be on 10. I accidentally pushed the volume on the ultra gain setting up thinking it was the treble knob and I almost had a heart attack!

I have had mine for years and I love it. Awesome amp for the stuff I play.

Its a tube Marshall, sounds good.

Great little amp! I have the Cream Back speaker in mine, and it makes a great difference! The clean channel takes my pedal board really well! No complaints on this amp, Ive owned Mesa Boogies, several fender amps, and this amp has a sound of its own!

everything on 10!!! That was awesome!

I owned one of these for about 2 months. I changed the speaker to a Celestion V30, not because the stock speaker was terrible but because if you’re trying to play all out Metal (which in fairness isn’t how your supposed to use the amp) then the distortion can sound fizzy at extreme levels. It is seriously one of the best sounding amps I’ve ever owned, that and a Fender Supersonic 60watt 212 combo. I’m bummed I sold it, I needed money. I’ll definitely buy another one down the road. I have the DSL 1 watt head and it sounds great too. These Marshall DSL amps are really great. Don’t know how he could sit that close to it with everything on 10 though. He must be partially deaf from years of gigging just like my drummer uncle.

Best demo/review Marshall could ever had

Got this amp about a month ago, been jamming with it since. Great sound from an affordable amp. My budget for gear isn't too big, but getting a great all tube Marshall for under $600 is badass. This video is very true to how this thing jams.

Just one thing, that final sound when he dimes everything on 10 is with the scooped mids button engaged. So it's not quite the midrange Marshall signature sound that you expect to hear on this amp. I have one of these and I love the amp, lots of different textures and classic marshall sounds!

Interesting upload Joe,super demo,enjoyed;)

Great demo 👍

Nice Nice Nice!!! I like to hear this kind of sound

you master the amp ... great demo !

Thanks Joe!

Owned the dsl2000 and yes, I loved that amp. Did have some heating issues and other stuff but I do love that clean channel. The overdrive channel was nice for punk and Indy rock, classic rock at its highest setting.

Question: would this amp sound the same as the dsl20c if I send it through a 4x12 cab? Bypass the 1x12 speaker.

Cool vid, and the stairs behind him are awesome - shaped in the form of piano keys.

Joe is such a nice dude. I would love to play guitar with him

Go read the reviews on this combo anywhere on line and you'll know for yourself that this is one solid great sounding amp ' don't listen to the tone deaf trolls on here that think they know more than the thousands of reviewers that has given this amp 4 and 5 star rating.

steve scarberry it's all about preference bot wheather its bad or good. I have seen just many bad reviews on this amp as good ones this amps just any not have the tone a person is looking for. I find it fizzy and has too much gain . I'm not saying it's bad but it's just not to my taste or preference. if your ear does not like it then it doesn't like it. you need to play an amp for yourself and should never buy something because it got great reviews on the internet. or because 200 tom dick and Harry's ordered it from sweet water and posted great reviews on their website. I know many poeple who ordered gear because of good reviews only to find out if wasn't the sound they expected or was looking for. only you can decide if something sounds to you. a million star reviews mean nothing untill you try it for yourself. I bought an ocd pedal because of all the great reviews and ended up trading for a boss od3 because to my ears the odd sounded terrible it's not because I'm tone deaf it's because I know what I want to hear and I i don't hear it something gets changed. I prefer fender and traynor amps with pedals in front be because I don't like the sound of modern marshall does that make me tone deaf . foe me dsl has too much gain to much fizz and I don't like the cleans that much . fenders and traynor give me the sound i want not liking a dsl does not make a person tone deaf. why do poeple get so butt hurt when Someone dislikes something they like

steve scarberry reading reviews will not tell how an amp sounds. you can't hear a written review . you won't know wheather an amp sounds good to you untill you try it for yourself .. music and gear is such s personal thing. and everyone has that tone in their head they want to achieve and for some poeple s dsl does not give them the tone they hear in their head. never buy gear based solely on s bunch of good online reviews. many reviews are written by very green people who never owned a tube amp before. when poeple say this is the best amp I have ever heard it's usually because they have not tried very many different types.

For a demo, that's some amazing playing.

DAMN. I have this amp & if I turned the gain & volume up to 10 it'd blow the windows out of our living room AND the neighbors would call the cops. I put a Dr. Z air brake lite attenuator on mine and the amp much more useable in a "home" situation now.

I have been contemplating the attenuator route, but a lot of people say don't do it. And how do you think this amp would do on a boss gt 100?

I love my DSL 40. I use a pair of Hughes and kettner TM112's with it and get my amp driving three speakers.

This is a 40 watt all-tub amp. It has a switch to cut the power to 20 watts if needed, which is a great feature on this amp. If you look closely, Joe has the reverb all the way off and the Presence and Resonance knobs turned way down. So that may explain some of the sound quality (or lack thereof). And look at where he's playing. They probably set up an impromptu demonstration in a setting not designed to get the full benefit of the amp's sound and tone. I own this amp and it's a great buy for the money. Lastly, I saw Joe Bonamassa live in concert. He is a GREAT guitarist and very dedicated to the blues genre. But to each his own.

" distortion scares me " and then he dimes the amp. That's class

Joe is awesome!

I bought one of these online on a whim, and must say I'm pretty impressed. One downside is its kinda hard to carry around, so I use a trolley to save myself the trouble. Though the reverb is great, clean channel is beautiful and can go into hard rock territory, and there's some okay sounding metal tones in there too if that's your thing, picture early Metallica.

Cooool demo! Badass player!!!

Yep, the DSL2000 is a highly underrated amp IMO. You don't need any pedals for a great blues-rock lead tone IMO. I just run it through a good attenuator, use the lead 1 channel, and crank the gain to 9 or 10 and volume to 7 1/2.

Love the guitar as well.....

I just bought this amp. I found it to be fizzy and harsh, so I replaced cap C19 with a 68pF (replacing the 470pF stock value) and replaced the speaker with an Eminence GB128 (greenback clone). Holy cats, do I love it now. Green channel (clean/crunch) transitions nicely to Red channel (hi gain) for blues & rock. If you don't mind spending a few extra bucks for mods, this is a great gigging amp. And loud as heck, if you want loud.

Just bought this amp because of you joe

Should i get the dsl 40c or keep the jcm 2000 dsl 401 im afraid the 401 will over heat i just got the 401 and it this from 1999 when they had overheating problems it runs hot i dont want a lemon or a money pit so im looking at the dsl40c hoping its not a dud or lemon

bro when i pit my dsl volume on 7 i can actually smell the tubes burning im not sure if thsts a good idea

I have this amp but with the creamback speaker and I love it. Couldn't be more pleased.

My jaw dropped on 10!

So, this is the guy that has a signature model of everything on every brand.

DSL 2000, damn thats a fine amp. right on!!

Amazing

Bright, sharp sounding amp.

Several factors. Yes the main amp I use is a 5W Blackstar HT5, valve is usually louder or seems so, but the BIG factor is speaker efficiency! The more efficient, the more dB per watt it can put out. The speaker(s) I use have a 98dB @ 1W efficiency, so are pretty loud! So @ 5 W you're looking at about 102-3 dB!

Wow awesome stairs

It does sound really good on everything full fuckin' blast.

I bought mine yesterday. I'm impressed how loud and clear it is. Overdrive sounds amazing with EMG 81'S. I approve.

Such an amazing blues guitarist. Really digging his style

Anyone who's never tried a Laney amp should do. Awesome sound.

The 10 over the dials is how EVH had his rigs on amps in the old days. Just run his hand over dials full blast 👌 RIP EVH

Sounds like a great portable kick ass Marshall. The greatest valve amps ever.

I have same amp and everything on ten really sounds great even on my vintage modern 100 watt full stack which is tube

I don'town the amp personally but I've read elsewhere that a lot of people feel the same way. They said that if you change the speaker it will sound way better because the celestion seventy80 (I think its called) is known for harsh highs and weak lows. I would love to get this amp and put something like an Eminence GB128 because I love the simple controls and it switches between 40 and 20 watts, but you never really know until you try it :)

ive havent seen the laney tony iommi combo. id like to try it out. I did like the SL-5. but it is lame how it doesnt have an effects loop. kinda sucks trying to use a boost pedal wtihout it.

Excellent joe

That guy is a pretty good player. Hope he makes it big one day. That amp is alright too. I'm sure it will find it's niche.

YOU GOTTA GO TEN OUTTA TEN

I also used an 1987 2553 Silver Series Jubilee. The Cabinets Each had 2 10 or 12 inch Greenback Speakers. Kept going through Transformers, Caps, Tubes. Sold It while angry and now deeply regret. I am interested in your true thoughts on this amp and I guess I will go check some specs. I like real tubes, not the valve state stuff. The VS 265 was a valve state, great clean channel but then that valve distortion, I can't get it dialed in because something just isn't there. Eggnator Rebel or renegade, cool amp.

Speaker efficiency is a major reason why SS amps are thought to be much quieter than tube amps. Also, the wattage rating of a tube amp refers to the peak while running clean. The amp actually produces more when being pushed into overdrive. Though the volume doesn't really increase once being overdriven due to the fact that the signal is being clipped. A 100 watt amp being driven hard is probably producing 150 watts or so. This is why you wouldn't want to only use 100 watts worth of speakers

I've owned this amp for about 2 years now. I really like it, but I was kinda on the fence at first. After a tube swap with some old military NOS pre-tubes and some JJ power tubes, V30 speaker, and some other small mods, I can easily dial in most any sound I like. I do like the reverb and clean channel. Put a little into it and you'll get a lot out of it.

Whats the song for the riff at 1:41 i know it but i can't place it driving me crazy 😜

technically all amps are put out more more than what there rated this may sound confusing but the 100 watt rating is the highest possible wattage before breakup, it really all has to do with headroom, a 5 watt amp clean channel will go into breakup muc h earlier than a 100 watt but in the end the volume spl will be about 5 db difference ran through the same speakers

I have this amp and love it. I play it through a JD Newell 212 cab. If you think it sounds shitty....its not the amp

how will an overdrive pedal work with this?

Did Joe said he likes the JCM2000 DSL amps better than the Jubilee amps?

legend

:-) That's the same attenuator I have, I love it. I may as well put the 2 power tubes back in it and attenuate the heck out of it :-) LOL I wish all amps had a Volume loop like my Splawn Quick Rod and those Blackstar Series One amps. Make it much easier getting good tube sat. Is it me or is 100 Marshall watts seem louder than others? It seems like they under rate their amps. I was told the JCM-800 is actually more than 100 watts.

this amp is very thin sounding on their overdriven channel, but it sounds really good on the neck pickup for alot of bluesy stuff.

I think it's funny how people are bashing Bonamassa by the way he dresses and plays. My immediate thought is He's a #1 Billboard artist what have you accomplished? In my opinion the amp sounded great i have played a few dsl's they're amazing.

joe is great that amp is not. you don't need to be an accomplished musician to know if an amp does not sound right for you. and its stupid to fell a person they are wrong for not liking the tone of an amp. you don't need to be a professional guitarist to have an ear for tone. as many producers will tell you many pros struggle to identify when their guitar is out of tune. joe knows tone buy many pros do not. not everyone has to like joe either. maybe his music is not to everyone's taste. just because a person is not a pro does not mean they have no right to there preferences. the what have you accomplished statement is short sighted and irrelevant . you are basically saying joe is famous so you have to like him and your not a pro so you are not qualified to say you don't like his music .

It sounds pretty cool to me
