Question about clean channel on a DSL 600 Marshall

dsl 100 surely?

I think I'm just going to say what anyone else would say. Take it to a store to be seen to. Unless it's a silly mistake like thinking putting up the gain on the clean will distort it, then what I'd say it, try putting up the gain.

Ask him if the other setting on the classic gain works. The crunch setting

I thought it was a JCM 600 it has 60 watts power and is 2 channels.  The Distortion Channel is loud and clear, but the clean channel has no volume to it what so ever.  I jammed together over the weekend and it sounds great but just doesn't have the clean working properly.   I was just hoping someone could narrow down some problems he might be having before he talked to a amp tech.

Do the tubes sit horizontally inside the head or vertically?  I think this will clear up the confusion.  There WAS a JCM 600 but they discontinued it due to overheating issues and unreliability.  The JCM2000 was a better designed version of the JCM 600 theme (clean/crunch + higher gain w/ reverb).  The JCM600 generally sounded good (maybe a few lemons here and there) and may be worth taking to a quailfied repair guy.  I personally would sell it and get a different model for the reasons mentioned above.

Yes the JCM600 was the one with the knobs on top!  It was a very unusual design for Marshall.  I know a guy who has one and he's constantly getting it fixed or debating over the tone...I would say keep it around if you didn't already invest too much into it for collectors sake.  Can't have too many amps! I don't think that the JCM 600 was refered to as a "dual super lead" amplifier, but like I said before it is very similar in function the the DSL series.
