You may also remember seeing our white vinyl amps that year, maybe you were even lucky enough to get one—there were only manufactured.

Change was in the air in as we branched into the headphones market. We wanted to bring Marshall brand quality to a wider audience and a new range of products. We launched the Major and Minor headphones featuring the white script logo, black vinyl covering and heavy-duty hinges. These have been hugely successful and now in-ear, on-ear and over-ear options are available with ANC and voice technology.

We welcomed Natal to our family the same year. Although the company was officially founded in , British percussionist Alan Sharp had been assembling his own instruments since the late 50's. As orders for his revolutionary percussion came flooding in, Natal Percussion Company was formed, championed by the likes of Fleetwood Mac and The Rolling Stones. The use of fibreglass for greater sound projection and rounded hoops that were easier on the hands made his instruments popular.

Although these manufacturing methods would later be adopted by other drum companies, Natal were the pioneers and interest in the brand exploded as a consequence. Natal continued to flourish in the following decades, extending their product range to include the Fusion series in the early 90's as well as cowbells, cajons and small percussion in the following years. Our 1 Watt heads and combos were released to commemorate this special occasion and pay homage to some of our greatest creations.

In true Marshall fashion, we took over Wembley Arena for a star-studded rock concert featuring a host of legendary musicians who all paid tribute to Jim who sadly passed away in April that year. We also diversified again, this time offering a range of music speakers for home or leisure use.

Our first two speakers, Hanwell and Stanmore, were named after significant locations in the Marshall story. Our speakers are based on the iconic style of our vintage amps and include vinyl covering, gold metal finish, script logos and fret cloth.

This amp has a wide range of sound options with professional quality models and 24 digital FX. With these amps you have full creative control and can choose from a range of Marshall sounds. To furtherour support of young musicians, we launched Marshall Records in July Signing talented bands such as Nova Twins, Therapy?

Our inspiration to form a record label was due to our relationship with David Evans from King Creature. When King Creature was formed, we had to be involved and give them a platform to take their music forward. We took the next step in when we introduced Marshall Live Agency to provide a new means of support for artists, crew and promoters in the everchanging live music industry.

Couple this with our very own state-of-the-art recording studio which launched later that same year, and we are able to provide musicians with everything they need to make incredible music and leave their mark on the industry. Marshall are defined as innovators and we will continue to push the boundaries of possibility to help inspire you to find your sound. Marshall Home About. I didn't dream that the endeavour would last 50 years. Jim worked at the original Marshall Amplification store based in Hanwell, London in the sixties.

We spent some time with Jim to hear about some iconic moments from his life. Ever wondered how your Marshall amp was made?
