    Default Decent deal on a Marshall half stack?

    Our local Craigslist doesn't usually have very much in the music area. And I'm automatically suspicious of anyone who uses stock photos. But I don't know enough about the dark side to know if the price is right or not. Input?

    well I am no marshall expert, but those do go new for 600, my friend has one and I'm not a big fan. The price seems reasonable though. I would arrange a meeting to check it out for yourself and see if you like it.

    Not that great a deal and frankly it has marshall name on it but it is junk ..............of course this is my opinion.....others may disagree.

    I agree with Mud, those solid state Marshalls are just icky.

    The cabinets are small. They're not the full sized Marshall 4x12 cabinets. The heads are "ok", my neighbor has that half stack and you can rock on some decent sounds but it's nothing like a tube stack.

    Marshall MG's are garbage... and especially those MG100's... hence the low prices on them.
    You get what you pay for... and sometimes much less!
