This is a complete set with with Papers, Covers & Switch. The Marshall Astoria Dual is a two-channel, 30-watt all-valve amplifier head, hand-built and hand-wired in Bletchley, England. It was designed to bridge the gap between classic vintage tone and modern flexibility, offering rich harmonic character, touch sensitivity, and dynamic response.
Channel 1 provides clean and mild crunch tones with excellent headroom, while Channel 2 delivers higher gain settings for classic rock and modern overdrive sounds. Each channel is footswitchable, and a gain boost is also available from the included two-way footswitch.
The amp uses a Class A design with KT66 output valves, delivering 30 watts of power. A Power Reduction switch allows operation at 5 watts for studio or home use.
The front panel includes controls for Gain, Treble, Middle, Bass, Edge, Body, Master Volume, and Presence. The Edge control adjusts brightness and top-end bite, while the Body control thickens and adds warmth to the overall tone. The amp also includes a valve-driven series effects loop for integrating pedals or rack units.
The Astoria series is known for its unique boutique styling, featuring a color-matched vinyl covering, contrasting cream control panel, and vintage-style switches. The AST3H is finished in blue with a cream front panel, giving it a distinctive retro look.
