Introduction With the introduction of the Marshall JCM2000 range of Dual and Triple Super Lead heads and combos, from 20 watts through to 100 watts, the quintessential definition of ultimate tone and usable features has been rewritten. This range of great amps has now been completed with the 60 watt range of Triple Super Lead amps, the TSL60 head, the TSL601 1x12" combo, and the TSL602 2x12" combo. They will cover any playing situation, from studio to full concert stages, whilst maintaining excellent portability. The TSL60 range offers three channel functionality, covering Clean, Crunch, and Lead, plus all points in between thanks to the overlapping sound spectrum of each channel. Added to that are dual reverb controls for the long spring `Sound Enhancements' Reverb, Parallel FX loop with level, and remote switching plus Mix control, Emulated D.
