Home / Marshall SC20H Studio Classic 20/5-Watt Tube Head
Product Overview
The Studio Classic SC20H brings the powerhouse roar of the legendary JCM800 2203 to a compact, lunchbox-sized format. Designed for those who want that genre-defining hard rock sound without the back-breaking weight of a full-sized head, the SC20H moves effortlessly from warm cleans to barky overdrive. Designed, engineered, and built in the UK, this amp captures the spirit of the 80s in a unit that is smaller, lighter, and more versatile than the original.
Product Description
The Legend, Reimagined: The SC20H features the same single-channel simplicity and legendary tone as the original JCM800. It is the ultimate "plug-in-and-play" amp for guitarists who want a raw, honest valve response.
Master Volume Control: Unlike vintage non-master volume amps, the SC20H features a Master Volume control. This allows you to ramp up the preamp gain for thick, saturated distortion while keeping the overall output at a manageable level.
Powerstem™ Technology: Adapt your volume to your environment. Switch from 20W to 5W at the flick of a switch, allowing you to get rich EL34 power-tube saturation in the comfort of your own home or studio.
UK-Built Precision: Every SC20H is handcrafted in Marshall’s UK factory. With three ECC83 preamp valves and two EL34 power amp valves, it provides the authentic British "crunch" that defined an entire era of music.
Personalise Your Sound: A built-in series FX loop makes it easy to add your own character to the sound, ensuring your time-based effects (like delay and reverb) stay crisp and clear even when the amp is overdriven.
Key Features
Dual Sensitivity Inputs: High and low inputs allow you to perfectly match the amp's gain stage to your guitar's pickups and your specific playing style.
All-Valve Heart: Authentic tube circuitry for a touch-responsive feel and harmonic richness.
Portable Powerhouse: Significantly smaller and lighter than the 100W original, making it ideal for the gigging musician on the move.
DI Output: Includes a 1/4" DI output for easy direct recording or silent stage monitoring.
