The Marshall DSL40CR 40W 1x12 Limited-Edition Tube Guitar Combo Amp in Stealth Black delivers the legendary Marshall roar with a modern edge. This exclusive model, available only at Guitar Center, features a sleek, all-black aesthetic for a bold, stage-ready presence.
Outfitted with a premium 12" Celestion V-Type speaker and powered by EL34 tubes, this limited-edition amp offers an expansive tonal palette—from shimmering cleans to saturated, high-gain overdrive—all with the unmistakable character of authentic all-valve tone. Practical features like adjustable power output, Softube emulated outputs, and onboard digital reverb make the DSL40CR incredibly versatile, adapting seamlessly to practice, gigging, and professional recording environments.
- All-Tube Power With Celestion Speaker Punch: The DSL40CR’s all-valve design provides the harmonic richness and responsiveness that only tubes can deliver. Its preamp stage is driven by four ECC83 tubes, while a pair of EL34 power tubes ensures dynamic punch and authentic Marshall growl. The 12" Celestion V-Type speaker balances vintage warmth with modern clarity, offering a versatile tonal foundation suited for every style. From nuanced clean passages to hard-hitting riffs, this speaker and tube combination brings out the full character of your playing with authority and depth.
- Adjustable Output for Authentic Tube Tone at Any Volume: One of the DSL40CR’s standout features is its adjustable power output, letting you toggle between 40W and 20W modes. This allows you to adapt to any environment without sacrificing crucial tube tone, as the amp lowers output by adjusting the signal to the tubes themselves, preserving feel and response at every level. For quiet practice or recording, the Softube-emulated headphone and line outputs replicate the sound of a miked 1960 Marshall cabinet with impressive accuracy, ensuring consistent, responsive performance whether on stage, at home, or in the studio.
- Intuitive Controls for Seamless Tone Shaping: Crafting your sound is effortless with the DSL40CR’s versatile control set. It features two independent channels—Classic Gain and Ultra Gain—each offering two switchable modes, giving you access to everything from sparkling clean tones to saturated gain. Built-in digital reverb adds dimension, while presence and resonance controls allow you to fine-tune your highs and lows for greater depth and projection. A shared three-band EQ provides precise tonal shaping across any style, and with intuitive gain and master controls, transitions between tones are seamless.
- Comprehensive Connectivity for Modern Rigs: The DSL40CR offers a range of connectivity options designed for seamless integration into any rig. Five speaker outputs allow flexible pairing with external cabinets to expand your sound. A series FX loop integrates pedals into your signal chain, while MIDI compatibility gives you deeper control in complex setups. The emulated line out provides a direct signal for silent recording, ensuring your tone stays rich and detailed even when playing direct into a DAW.
- Classic Marshall Power, Exclusive Stealth Style: The Marshall DSL40CR 40W 1x12 limited-edition tube guitar combo amp offers the perfect marriage of heritage tone and modern versatility, now in a sleek Stealth Black finish. From its adjustable power output and emulated recording tools to its expressive reverb and premium Celestion speaker, this amp is built to deliver across every playing environment. Whether you’re chasing vintage-inspired cleans or high-gain aggression, the DSL40CR adapts to your style with unmistakable Marshall authority.
