Get Slash's Marshall Tones, at Manageable Volume Levels

Marshall's Slash SL-5C combo amplifier gives you the hallmarks of the legendary guitarist's sound, from bell-like clean to big crunch to rich sustain. But, this all-tube tone monster packs its mojo into a bedroom- and studio-friendly 5-watt combo. Slash's sound is instantly recognizable, and the powerplant of the Marshall amp that made that sound famous is the same one found at the heart of this combo. The Marshall Slash SL-5C is switchable to 1-watt, so you can satisfy your appetite for tonal destruction even at bedroom levels.

Marshall Slash SL-5C Combo Tube Guitar Amp at a Glance:

  • Capture Slash's iconic tones

  • All-tube design and output for killer tone
  • Celestion speaker provides beefy tone
Capture Slash's iconic tones

The Marshall Slash SL-5C combo gives you a jaw-dropping approximation of the classic JCM800 sounds the former G n' R fretmaster made famous. The clean channel provides everything from smooth, glassy sounds to thick, violin-like sonics. The overdrive channel pumps out a more modern, aggressive sound with plenty of definition at even the highest gain setting. Modeled after the signature AFD amp, this channel gives you that classic Slash solo sound.

All-tube design and output for killer tone

Unlike many low-wattage tube combos, the Marshall Slash SL-5C sports an EL34 power tube like the big Marshalls. A genuine EL34 power tube provides that magical blend of tightness, midrange magic, and amazing responsiveness you expect from a Marshall.

Celestion speaker provides beefy tone

Most small combos have 10" speakers, but the Marshall Slash SL-5C tube combo sports a 12" speaker. This 5-watt beast is loaded with a single 12" Celestion Vintage 30 speaker. The Vintage 30 has been a staple in rock 'n' roll guitar amps since the '60s. Many players won't use anything else in their speaker cabs. Marshall wanted this little amp to roar, so they made sure it had a speaker that was the same caliber as the amp. The Marshall Slash SL-5C combo amp and the a Celestion Vintage 30 are the perfect combination to create rock-guitar bliss!

Marshall Slash SL-5C Combo Tube Guitar Amp Features:

  • Capture Slash's epic tones at user-friendly levels

  • Switchable to 1-watt for practice and recording
  • Powered by a single EL34 power tube and 3 12AX7 preamp tubes
  • Clean channel conjures up the magic of a JCM800
  • Overdrive channel delivers Slash's AFD tones
  • Loaded with a 12" Celestion Vintage 30 speaker
  • 8 ohm and 16 ohm speaker outputs make this a flexible amp in the studio and on stage
  • Digital reverb adds space and depth to your sound
