Boutique vibe and classic Marshall tone
Dial in practice levels with onboard power reduction

All-tube design delivers big sound
Utilizing a cathode-biased KT66 power section and GZ34 rectifier, the Astoria Custom amplifier head gives you a wide range of tones with a definite Marshall vibe. The Custom was designed for players who want vintage tone with modern features like an effects loop and footswitchable gain. The gain knob also houses a Body switch that adds a different EQ curve to your tone. Handwired in Bletchley, England, Astoria amps use turrets mounted to printed circuit boards that let complex switching and hand wiring exist in the same amplifier. Sweetwater knows that good tone is important to you, and we're confident that the Marshall Astoria Custom can do the job.
Boutique vibe and classic Marshall tone
The all-tube Marshall Astoria Custom tube amp head delivers fat British tones in a stylish and great-looking package. The top-mounted control panel, leather carrying strap, and the old-school Marshall logo badge are a nod to Marshall amps from the '60s. Eye-catching two-tone vinyl covering and boutique cabinet design is sure to set this amp apart from the crowd.
Dial in practice levels with onboard power reduction
Thanks to the Astoria Custom's onboard power reduction, you can retain all that tonal richness even at low volumes. Imagine being able to plug your guitar into the same thick, sustaining tonality in the practice room or studio that you get when it's wide open on the big stage. With the Marshall Astoria Custom amp head, all it takes is a simple pull of a knob.
