Marshall Amplification have introduced the new Marshall Haze line of portable and compact valve-driven performance amplifiers: the 40-Watt Haze combo (MHZ40C) and the 15-Watt Haze head (MHZ15) at the Musikmesse show in Frankfurt.
The Marshall Haze line is aimed at the musician who requires a clean sound, driving blues tone and biting rock, all from a single, gig-ready amp. The Haze 40 combo is equipped with a single Celestion G12-66 Marquee 12-inch speaker. The Marshall Haze 15 head can be paired with matching single 12-inch Celestion G12-66 Marquee loaded cabinets (MHZ112A – angled; MHZ112B – base) as well.
The preamp section is powered by three ECC83 valves. Both Marshall Haze models feature two channels (normal and overdrive) that share a three-band EQ; a ‘bright’ switch adds extra emphasis to the highs. A selection of retro-style effects offers authentically-voiced echo, vibrato, and chorus. An emulated spring-reverb is also included. Effect settings are retained by each channel for immediate recall during performance. All effects remain truly bypassed when completely off, providing a more direct signal path
The Marshall Haze 40 combo features unique cabinet construction elements. The closed-back cabinet has been modified with four circular holes to preserve the best aspects of both an open-back and a closed-back design. The speaker is asymmetrically mounted, allowing for extended lows. This combo also features an additional presence control in the eq, as well as a boost switch to add more depth to the low-mids. A bypass-able effects loop is also included. For recording or directly patching into a PA system, an emulated speaker line output recreates the speaker response. Power is provided by two EL34 valves.
The Marshall Haze 15 head is powered by a pair of 6V6 valves. Two eight-Ohm and one 16-Ohm speaker jacks are provided. The matching MHZ112 cabinets feature finger-jointed construction and a closed back design for robust tone and efficient power handling. The MHZ112B is a straight style (base) design; the MHZ112A is the traditional Marshall angled (top) style. Together with the Haze 15 head, they form a striking mid-size stack that is easily transportable.
An included Marshall two-way footswitch allows for channel switching and turning effects on and off.
