These beauties feature point-to-point, handwired circuitry. No effort was spared to bring back that glorious, all-tube sound.

Even the output and power transformers have been meticulously recreated by Dagnall Electronics!


Amplifier and speaker models in the Marshall Handwired Series include:



        Marshall 1974X Handwired 18W 1x12 Combo AmpMarshall 1974X Handwired 18W 1x12 Combo Amp
Original versions of this 18 Watt Amplifier (made from 1966–68) are rare and highly sought after. The new, all-valve combo (3 x ECC83s* in preamp, 1 x EZ81 rectifier, 2 x EL84s in power amp) features two channels and a valve-driven Tremolo circuit (on Channel 2). Each channel offers two inputs plus volume and tone controls. Channel 2 also has Speed and Depth controls for the Tremolo.

A contributing sonic factor in the original 1974 is the way the sound of the Celestion Greenback speaker softens with age. For the 1974X, Celestion revisited the recipe for the original 20 Watt, ceramic magnet, 15 Ohm, Greenback T1221 speaker, and “aged” it. The result is a new speaker proprietary to Marshall that yields all of the sonic characteristics of the original.

Designed to partner with the 1974X combo, the 1974CX is also loaded with the proprietary, "aged," 20 Watt Celestion Greenback T1221 speaker.



Marshall 2061X Handwired 20W Amp HeadMarshall 2061X Handwired 20W Amp Head
The original versions of this new 20 Watt, all-valve (2 x ECC83s in preamp, 2 x EL84s in power amp) Lead and Bass 20 Head (made from 1967–1973) are now quite collectable. Its two channels — Lead and Bass — both boast the same, simple features: two inputs (High and Low Sensitivity) and controls for volume and tone.

To enhance the user-friendliness of the 2061X, an impedance selector has been added to the rear panel and both the Mains and H.T. fuses are now accessible via the rear panel. Again, these new features have no tonal impact on the amplifier whatsoever.

This compact, 60 Watt, mono 2x12" cabinet has an angled front and is the perfect partner for the 2061X head. It sports Salt and Pepper (a.k.a. Grey Basket Weave) grille cloth, metal handles and two 30 Watt, Celestion G12H reissue speakers.

* Note: ECC83 valves are also known as 12AX7s.
