Marshall has announced it will be returning to NAMM for the first time in five years when the historic guitar gear trade show takes place early next year.

In an early press release sent to Guitar World, the legendary British amp firm teased it would take the opportunity to celebrate “the best that Marshall has to offer”, reaffirm its commitment to amp building, and showcase several new products.
Marshall CEO Jeremy de Maillard says.

“We have some great plans for showcasing the best that Marshall has to offer in hand-built amps while introducing several new products to the Marshall portfolio.”

As per the release, Marshall will be unveiling and demoing a number of new currently-unnamed products, and will host Q&As, artist signings and, naturally, open the floor for guitarists to test out its gear.

Marshall also plans to run an invite-only ‘Tone Sanctuary’ event, which will allow visitors to experience a host of new products that will be launched later in 2025.

“It’s wonderful to see us returning to NAMM to showcase our dedication to the amps business and for preserving the Marshall legacy for the next generation of musicians,” says Terry Marshall, Jim’s son and board member of Marshall Group.

Sounds interesting. The thing that makes me feel bad about my relationship towards Marshall amps is they stopped making the products that I am personally interested in over 50 years ago. The name speaks for itself but I can't go to them and buy a brand new JTM45/100.

I hope they find a tasteful toneful player to do their demos.

The demos from Marshall over the last 10 years have been horrendous, IMHO.

I just want to be entertained by the demos. 😆

I have all the tones I need between my JMP 2204, my Champ, and my Fractal digital box of tones. I am playing a digital 2204 today. I just came off of a couple of weeks each with the JTM 45 and an AC30. I got sidetracked while scrolling to a Dumble. 😵‍💫

Marshall should do a historical exhibit and have the original players there. Get Clapton and Townsend there, anyone who is still alive. Get some of the later players as well who are all Marshall. Have an amp example of every model up to 2025 than have them debut the new stuff as sort of a next generation of thing. Make it a spectacle.
