I love Daddy Panamark!:0
Well, I'd have to agree with you.Originally posted by Seshmeister
I'd rather have sex with Panamark than use a Peavey Bandit.
Gosh, this thread is a turn on! Marshalls are the best....but I must admit that it would be really cool for all the cool rocker boys out there to have a Marshall and a girl humming simultaneously! What do you think the odds of that occuring in your life are, Panamark? Have they happened already?
Rock and Roll! I love you Mark! hehe
hehehe
You could sit on between 2 of my Marshalls with your legs up against one and your back to the other, and we'll see how tolerable my downstrokes are on 10.
That should be "hummin'"
You could take off the grill cloth and glue a jelly dildo to one of the speaker cones and as the speaker bounces back and forth it thrust the dildo in and out. A Marshall fucking machine! You can play your guitar and give her multiple orgasms.
No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!
That was in reference to Panamark only guys! Sorry.

Now I will admit that I really don't care for Marshall's combo amps..they just sound too "bleh".
I have a ValveState combo and I know what you mean - the buzzy thing...
Last year I bought one of the new(ish) DLS401 things though and I think it's excellent, best combo I've ever heard.
It's a lot cheaper than a stack, great tones and loud enough to cut over live drums.
All in all the best choice for the 30 something, fuck around in the garage demographic...
Cheers!

life are extremely good
If this girl was rocking through her Marshall with a Les Paul,
well then my life is complete! Ive been playing your Les Paul
through your JCM 800 by the way, its here waiting for you.
See ya in a few days
You Rock Babe !
The only combos i'm interested in are the #2 combos on the Wendy's menu.
As for the 'hummin while you work' comments...it has happened a couple times, that's why i used to love groupies who visit rehearsals.
The only thing missing was the Marshall.
I had a Crate solid state half stack at the time, total piece of shite.
Crate=Not Grate!
Better than Peavy though...

With fries and a medium coke combo thats 1320 calories and 63g of fat!
Holy shit...
Cheers!
No argument there, except on the Peavey thing, lol.
But i don't consider my amp a Peavey anymore. You can't buy my amp at the music store.
Only one that looks like it.
If it's any consolation, it was modded by a Marshall Maniac, though it sounds way more like a Soldano than a Marshall or stock 5150.
I like it.

Hendrix hated Peaveys.
I don't eat at Wendy's, I eat Wendy. God I love her hot and juicey!
No tone from a Peavey ever made my dick hard. Not even EVH's 5150. That amp had a powerful sound but was not musical. A good amp should sound like a hot ass looks like. A 5150 doesn't paint the nice round curves in the air like a Marshall does.
No shit. After firing up that fucking Marshall cabinet I got last Friday, I noticed a serious difference between it and the Carvin cab I had.
REALLY sweet sounding. Rich. DROOLABLE EVEN!!!!
Marshalls rule!!!
I actually liked the old Peavey VTM 120, but that's about it. LOL The 5150 was too fuzzy and noisy, but a definite improvement for the company. I absolutely hate their guitars....
I don't know what it is about Marshall cabs but they do get that special sound. Carvin and a lot of companies make good cabs but they just don't get the Marshall sound. I always tell people the spend the extra money and get a real Marshall cabinet if they like the Marshall sound.
I didn't mean to shit all over Peavey, the Wolgangs were pretty good guitars but overpriced for what they were and the classic tweed line of amps they make are kind of cool. I had a Classic 30 and it was a pretty good amp but the box it was in was made of cheap fiber board. If that amp was a Marshall, it would have been finger jointed Baltic Birch plywood. That's always the thing with Peavey, you are going to find something cheap or wrong on even a good Peavey product. The Floyd Rose trems on the Wolfgangs were pure shit. You shouldn't have to order a real Floyd to replace the original equipment on a $1,600 guitar. The castors and tolex covering on the 5150 speaker cabinets were shit too. The castors on my cab broke. Jim Marshall has followed a time proven formula for making good speakers and amps. They are made to go on the road and be dragged around. Peavey shit breaks. Oh it might just be the little wheels on the speaker but for a cab that costs over $500, they should be better. Peavey is always cutting corners somewhere.
Oh hell, all this thinking about Peavey made my dick shrivel up. If Santa Clause left me a bunch of Peavey gear on Christmas morning I would be wondering what in the hell did I do wrong.
When I think Marshall, I think of some hot chick bent over a 4x12 cabinet with the words "Plug In!" below.
Just got an Ampeg V-4BH after waiting on backorder fer almost a month.
Plugged a Jazz bass and a couple hartke cabs into it, cranked it up, and I gotta admit, I got a lil` wood...lol
If you don't get some wood, that means the equipment is no good.
Dude...Ampeg is the shit for bass!
I would love to have an SVT head and a pair of 4 X 10 cabs....oh and I suppose a cab with an 18 in it as well.
Back in 1988, a band I was in opened for Kings X on their very first tour. The venue was an old theater, and the room was up on the second floor, so we had to haul all our gear up a couple of flights of stairs.
I helped the Kings X guys haul their stuff up, including FOUR Ampeg rigs with 8 X 10 cabinets for Doug Pinnick.
He had the bass sound from GOD that night!
Ampegs are the shit for basses, that is no lie.
Had one fall out the back of an 1972 50 Watt head on the way to a gig. Someone(drummer) stuck it back in the wrong setting and blew a speaker...Originally posted by Panamark

I love Ampeg shit as well. Michael Anthony always got a good tone with his old Ampeg rigs. I love the sound he was getting on Light Up The Sky on VHII. You know that picture of VH in Sunset Sound were there are beer cans and booze bottles all over the place. Eddie has a zillion old filthy Marshall cab and Mike is awash in SVT heads and Ampeg cabinets. Roth has a broken foot and a cane.
You let a drummer touch your Marshall ???Originally posted by Seshmeister

Whos the necromancer running around ???
All I can say is, the more things change the more they stay the
same... You have to double check the dates to see if you were
not drunk as normal and had just posted this yesterday !!!
A Laney is Marshalls hot sister... :tongue0011:Originally Posted by BrownSound1

Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?
It's like putting up a YouTube of Bach and playing Chopstix on your Bontempi...
conversely playing through a Peavey Bandit is like getting hand with a dime store hooker with Lee press ons.
Ampeg IS the shit for bass!
we're all tone whores inside
Yeah man... Haha...I dunno if I'd say horny, but I do love 'em. I remember the first time I played through a Marshall though...it was kind of like the first time I got to play with a girl's tits.
I played through a JVM 50W all tube British-made Marshall combo.. It was undescribable.
I was playing on a nice Ibanez RGX guitar... 24 frets, double locking Edge Pro tremolo... I just played it to town. I almost melted the eyebrows off of the losers by the door. Started playing Eruption, everyone in the store pulled an "oh shit." It was SO much fun! My dad says when I turn 21 my gift will be a Nice Marshall JCM Half-stack... I want a JCM900 Super Lead...
Reading Crazy From the Heat in four hours flat, in a cramped RV, on the return trip of a 3,000+ mile family outing to New Jersey is an enlightening experience you'll never forget.
In Los Angeles JCM 100 watt heads are sometimes had for $650-800 used. Why wait till you're 21?
JCM8-or-900s are OK, but the only Marshalls I've ever heard that were truly wood-inducing have been Plexis - standard and modified. Something about 'em.
Said it before but the best-sounding one I've ever heard up close and played through was Doug Aldrich's...holy crap, man! :eek: It had gain almost in the Boogie region, but still an overall character that was undeniably Marshall. I want one. Tried to talk him out of that one (said he had like 4) but he wasn't hearing it...
It blew its transformer that night, and he was like "Yeah I have to have it rebuilt about every six months, but it's WORTH IT." I agree!
I still have the schematic of his rig I did around here somewhere...
I recently got a very nice amp, which will keep me at it for a while until I buy another one.
I played an Ibanez RG570 through Mosfet 100 for a couple years before I got my first set dresser job on a film. When it was all over I picked up my 800 for five hundred dollars, coupled with my first Gibson LP and I never fucking looked back. The difference (as you all can imagine) was so huge that I sold the dusty old road worn Mosfet for 75 bucks to the first idiot that came by.
Funny story. When I was on the road with the Murder Junkies I would usually bring my 6101 combo (because it was small and still pushed 100 watts). There was a clause from the old days with GG that a backline was to be supplied for every show (In case there was a need for a hasty retreat) but the amps were usually provided by the opening band and were complete crap 90% of the time. So I'd bring my Marshall, and it would invariably break down, then I'd be forced to use whatever was available until we got back to Cincinnati and I could either see my amp guy for a repair, or grab my JCM800. One time we were one show away from my home, playing in Columbus, and I saw the opening band's guitarist had a Marshall head. Good, I thought, maybe I won't sound like complete crap tonight.
WRONG !
I got up there to plug in and, lo and behold, it was my old Mosfet. The very same one I had sold about 7 years prior, complete with red paint splatter from an art show gig back in 97 and burned tolex on top from candles that burned all the way down to the nub. No mistake, it was the one. Guess what, it still sucked complete ass !
Moral= Not every Marshall is a good amp.

It's a shame that families should be torn apart by something as simple as....wild dogs
Some are Marshalls in name only...
So true. Had to play through a solid-state half-stack at the gig I did in my hometown last summer, and it was awful...it's amazing they sell any of them at all...would be better used as a doorstop...
Saw Doug A just a few months back with Whitesnake. Always a pleasure to watch him shred.
Total badass.
Not long ago I got the IK Multimedia Ampeg plugin. Talk about the sound of God's Bass Rig!
And just last night, I realized that 4 1/2 years ago when I got my $300 Marshall cab, the pics I took were with a shit digital camera I got for free when signing up for an Earthlink internet access trial years ago, and are appropriately shitty. I realized this when I was trying to find the date codes for the Celestions I have in it (I could swear I wrote them down somewhere), and I could not find them. I do remember that in the cab are 3 G12M 16 ohm 75 hz black backs from the mid-70s (I think 1975), and a single 65-watt Celestion in the lower right-hand corner. That speaker sounds the best of all 4...the black backs sound 'darker'.
So...this evening when I go home, I am going to take the back off and take some proper images with my Nikon. The cab itself is from about 1975-1976 or so. It had the salt and pepper basket-weave grill cloth originally.
Here is an image I found on the net....pretty much just like mine:
One bonus I found when I got it home that first day....I found it was signed on the inside by Jim Marshall, and dated 1981 I think.
Too bad they have fuck all records on their cabs...I would love to know who originally owned it, as it seems to me if it is a mid-70s cab, and it has a 1981 replacement speaker in it, with Jim's signature from that same year, that someone had the factory replace a speaker in it.
Will post pics later tonight.
Shut the fuck up Gar. You can't even post a SINGLE FUCKING IMAGE, LOSER.
:tongue0011::tongue0011:
For those of you who can't recall, and to correct a statement made above, the grill cloth shown above was the original grill cloth. When I bought it, it had some replacement grill cloth that was all torn up, and looked like shit to begin with.
So, I ordered some black grill cloth and did my first ever Marshall cabinet grill cloth replacement (just cause I prefer the look of black cloth).
The result can be seen here:
