Marshall is an iconic British company that has been building highly regarded guitar amplifiers and speakers since 1962, when Jim Marshall began producing amplifiers to meet the demand for loud rock and roll guitar. The Marshall logo is familiar to many people who have seen it on stage behind their favourite performers.

Thermionic valves are near ubiquitous in media technologies from the first half of the 20th century and would have been found in almost every home, but they were largely superseded by transistors from the 1950s onwards. Today, domestic valve-based devices are rare, but the Marshall amplifier demonstrates that there remains a niche but active market for this technology, as valve amplifiers are highly valued by many guitarists.
