zZounds Gear Experts Say...
This half stack is a bit smaller than other Marshalls, but it doesn't skimp on tone or volume. This half stack pumps out 15 watts of pure tube power.

Marshall Haze MHZ15 Angled Half Stack offers studio quality tone perfect for the guitarist who needs to save on space. With the included MHZ112A angled cabinet this stack is loaded with natural tube tone, integrated effects and intuitive footswitching technology, the Haze MHZ15 takes your studio sound out on the road. No more compromising on tone over effects (or vise versa) and an end to jumping from FX pedal to FX pedal when your solo kicks in!

Classic Tone, Contemporary Control
The Haze15 contains three ECC83 preamp and two punchy 6V6 power amp valves, providing this two channel mini head with a pure-valve pedigree. A traditional Marshall EQ section of Bass, Middle and Treble allows total tonal control while the Normal and Overdrive channels create both pristine cleans and divine distortions with everything in-between.

Turning up the Normal channel volume takes the clear, honest guitar tone and adds natural valve drive, compression and bite, which can be dynamically adjusted through your guitar's volume control. Engaging the channel-spanning Bright function creates additional sonic sparkle and adds an extra cutting edge to your guitar's tone.

Switching read more to the Overdrive channel sees the amp really start to roar with simple Volume and Gain controls allowing direct, no nonsense access to your sound. At lower volumes the Haze15 creates smooth and rich overdriven tones, perfect for Bluesey riffing and heart-pounding rhythm playing. Crank this channel up and be rewarded with classic, full-fat, Marshall power amp distortion, and all without taking the roof off! Again, this channel responds extremely well with your guitar's volume control for interactive tone control on the fly.

Creating the Right FX
The beautiful analogue tone produced by each Haze amplifier is matched only by the scope and creative possibilities of the studio quality effects housed within both units. The custom-voiced and widely adjustable Echo, Vibe, and Chorus effects have been specifically designed to help enhance your performance, whether applied subtly or heavily. Each effect is governed by the Effect Depth and Adjust controls which dial-in the amount of effect in use and control the Echo tempo and Vibe/Chorus modulation rates respectively.

Completing the Effects section is a spring-emulated Reverb, which adds both space and fluidity to your overall sound. The key feature however, is that all effect settings are automatically stored to the current channel (and Overdrive Boost on the Haze40), and are recalled when you switch back to that channel - simplicity itself and all from a single footswitch tap. For the tone purists amongst you, the Effects section features true bypass, which completely removes the efffects circuitry and preserves that treasured all-valve signal path.

Fancy Footwork
Included with the Haze MHZ15 amplifier head is a two-way footswitch, enabling quick channel changes and FX on/off toggling. There's no restricting amp-specific cable to worry about either, as all you need to connect the Haze Footcontroller (supplied with cable) to the amp is a simple guitar cable.
If you've been searching for a portable amplifier range that delivers on all tonal promises, then look no further than the Haze Series from Marshall, a truly versatile and dynamic blend of modern technology and pure analogue heritage.

It makes me want to call in sick to work and just jam all day.
Sound
Just the the Haze half stack today and WOW. I own several other amps to include vintage tubes and solid state. Of course this tube set up blows the solid state out of the water but I was suprised how clear and crisp it sounds. With just the spin of the knob, you can crank up some great break up which Marshall is known for. I was worried at first with the amp becuase it was small compared to others and was afraid I was paying for a name but I think I have a great amp with a great name. No doubt, worth every penny. I will be ordering the other speaker cab as soon as possible. Dont let the small wattage fool you, this thing will blow you out of the room. Great amp!
Features
The half stack came with a footswitch and the speaker wires to connect the head with the cabs. Everything works great and is good quality.
Ease of Use
This is the great thing! Some have issue with the effects as most people have their own setup such as a pedal board with all of their effects. I have the same set up but am having a ton of fun dialing in the diffrent sounds this amp has. They all sound good and just add to the overall quality.
Quality
Its a Marshall, dont know what else to say.
Value
Rather pricey for the size but overall not bad.
Manufacturer Support
Never had to try.
The Wow Factor
Again, its a Marshall. It looks great, small enough to take around and loud enough to have that great tone.
