help Marshall 2061X FAQ
What original Marshall is the 2061X based on?
It reissues the Lead and Bass 20 head produced from the late 1960s into the early 1970s. The 2061X retains two channels, with separate Volume and Tone controls for each.
Does the Marshall 2061X use a tube rectifier?
No, the 2061X uses solid-state silicon-diode rectification. That distinguishes it from Marshall's 1974X reissue, which uses a rectifier valve and has a softer, more compressed response.
What valves and output power does the 2061X use?
Marshall rates it at 20 watts and specifies one ECC83 in the preamp section, another ECC83 in the power-amplifier section, and two EL84 output valves. It has no master volume, effects loop, or onboard effects.
Which cabinet was designed to match the 2061X?
Marshall produced the angled 2061CX cabinet as the matching companion for the head. Both the 2061X and 2061CX are now listed by Marshall as discontinued products, so buyers generally encounter them used.
