Great cabinets, mine sounds better all the time.

Have to think Doug has something big planned, he has non stop energy touring.

I like these wampler pedals.

I hear you, a lot of rain already which just makes a love fest for mosquitos

Seems like they are content with their current lineup. In two years we have gotten the DSL 5 and the SL5. I know about the handwired new amps but they are reissues.

Yes it's time.

1. Shit old strings. Don't be lazy, change your strings. The new Dean Markley Helix strings are the best I have used ever. 2. True Bypass. If you must use effects choose them carefully and line them up carefully. I am convienced that true bypass pedals are much better for your amp. 3. Tubes. OK I am...

While I really liked that Al, for some reason I had a image of a woman from India dancing on a poll.

Oh, nice chops there.

James Kottak might not come out alive if he thinks he can pop off over there. :upass United Arab Emirates are reporting that the American drummer for the rock band Scorpions has been sentenced to one month in jail after being convicted of ...

Ever wondered how line voltage affects guitar tone, especially in vintage amps - a great article with real research, not snake oil or internet hearsay. Great read.

Being made in Vietnam is just a sign of the times in our global economy. I don;t like it but we all try to get this biggest bang for o...

A wake up call that you have to much time on your hands. Seriously, I shouldn't talk, but this is still a great forum for information and all things Marshall.

Getting ready for a BBQ

Looks like a lot of work Mike, I would just buy a reverb pedal but thats me. Very cool.

Surfnorthwest posted about this some time ago, Al is correct when he states that Santiago and Steve are the two designers still at Marshall (at least as far as I know). I wouldn't say Santiago is all Modern as I am sure he can build a amp with vintage tone as easy as Steve could build a shred amp. B...

Funny to read
