    Cool The Marshall Slash AFD100...OK, maybe I want a Marshall too..

    Just saw this demo Slash did on WoodyTone...sounds pretty cool. Especially if that's it (apart from when he plays the 'Welcome to the Jungle' riff w/the echo) un-adorned, no tube screamer or anything in front of it...me likes...




    Apparently it's got 6550 power tubes...I'd like to check one out in person. Great thanks to Slash I'm GAS'ing for one of those Replica 'o the Replica LPs and the freaking amp...

    Slash has basic Marshall / Gibson tone...

    You don't need a special model to achieve tone that countless bands have been getting since Aerosmith arrived on the scene in the early 70's...

    From the blog at afd100.com, it may have a variac switch or power scaling of some sort on it. And an input like the RR amp where one input is stock and one input modded. The protype is just a JCM800 shell to tweak the circuit but the finished model is to look like a plexi

    I've been interested in the KK amp, but hate the tribal markings on it.

    I called Splawn to have one of their Marshall mods done but they weren't taking orders...

    Their head boxes are top notch...

    I don't play enough anymore to warrent buying a Marshall tube head. I have a solid state Marshall head that's pretty cool for me. I can't remember the model but it's a decent head.It doesn't sound anything like that AFD100.

    Played through one of those solid-state MGD50 stacks at that annual charity festival gig last year...um, HATED it. As a matter of fact, every other guitarist who played through it that day said they hated it too...


    Except for a few modeling amps, and PODfarm for recording, not really a fan of solid-state.

    It's not a tube amp but it's ok for me. I can't justify spending that much money on a head. I got used at Guitar Center.

    Arrow POST a PICTURE of it and maybe we'll believe you.

    Which would mean - if it's not imaginary - it's neither stock, nor basic - Douche-tube.

    Festivals are usually more than sixty people large. Just sayin'..
    Quite true, and hey, I didn't name it...lol and it's more because it goes on the whole week and is held in a huge-ass state park... And there was already close to 80-100 confirmed guests + family members this year (cough, water park for the kids, cough lol) for this year last time I checked. It's a small town, that's like half the population! LOL

    All I know is I get to play a few cool (DIO) tunes from the day with my then 20-something band for fun, REALLY LOUD. And it's for an actual Diabetes Charity Organization as well as to benefit a friend who passed of Diabetes complications' family (so please to be fucking off), I'm on vacation anyway, so... where the f are you playing, Mr. Can't-even-post-a-picture-of-his-gear? STFU.

    And I mainly mentioned it because that's where I played through the MGD50 or whatever...but yeah, now that you mention it - on a decent size stage in a huge field LOUD through a PA even...still wasn't happening like that Slash amp, or say, Doug Aldrich's modded Plexi - or ANY decent tube amp. Just sayin'.






    Back on topic...Slash says this fall in the video, but aren't they most likely gonna debut it at NAMM 2011?

    Let me get this straight - you'll spend 600 on airfare to generate 600 for a charity?

    Shouldn't you just write a check or something, and placate Venice Beach with a battery amp and an open guitar case for tips INSTEAD, or something?

    It cleans up, but isn't very loud with all the pre-gain and presence cut out of it.

    Who spent $600 on airfare? Geez, where are you buying your tickets, Gary? Why don't you post a picture of your gear, or STFU?

    How about backing your words up with some evidence?

    You can't do that though can you Gary? You can't substantiate one thing of what you say with even the merest shred of proof; everyone here knows this, and so do you.

    You are nothing. You're just a sad, delusional little liar.

    I repeat what I said to you yesterday Gary - You now have the opportunity to prove me, and everyone else here wrong; Go on then, prove us wrong Gary..... If you can. Put up, or shut up.


    As I'm now on the fabled "ignore list" can some one post this so he has the pleasure of reading it.

    I'd be interested to know who modded it too... Y'know, was it one of the more well-known people in town, or someone like ...H.R. Pufnstuf?

    I'm getting bored of this Gar Forum.

    The same questions, the same stalker-type insults. You guys don't remember shit we've gone over before and I'm tired of repeating said shit.

    Same squirming, the same twisting and turning in desperate attempts to change the subject and to detract from the fact that you can't substantiate one single thing.

    Why is this Gary? Would it be because there is not one word of truth to a single word you say? Or would it be because non of the fabled gear actually exists?

    As you're clearly having troubles reading, and taking the information in then let me summarise the questions to you in this thread

    1. What modifications does your Marshall have Gary?

    2. Who modded it?

    Again, I repeat what I said to you yesterday Gary - You now have the opportunity to prove me, and everyone else here wrong.


    You can’t do that though can you Gary? Because non of what you “claim” to own is actually real.

    You’re pitiful in that you actually seem to think you command any respect – the guy who got sacked after 2 weeks of co-modding this very forum for giving Jizzystool his password.


    Again, can someone who is not of the "Ignore List" repost this please.

    Really, Gary - two weeks?? That's is??? Oh, my sides.

    1. Lee Jackson, Mods 1, 2, and 3 same as he did for Slash's original anniversary 100 and a couple hundred other people.

    2. Lee Jackson, blind knob cunt.

    Now that Marshall has a head with ripe-enough amount of gain in it, you don't need to get a tech to mod an old amp like a Mesa Mk3 which might otherwise bake in the forlorn Van Nuys heat, obscured by dust and Ozzy Osbourne pin-up posters holding greater interest to their owner.

    You can't back your words up with any evidence that supports your claims can you Gary.

    In all likelihood all you've done here is Google "Amp Mods". I see nothing to dissuade me otherwise. Substantiate your claim Gary - show the amp, or be shown for what you are. A fake, a liar who has been caught out.

    Actually GARgles done a great job of proving things..... He's so far proved that he owns NOTHING of the things he says (water front property, a chain of fast food restaurants, multiple cars, motorcycles, trucks, boats, storage lockers full of gear, not to mention making diesel fuel out of drain oil in the back yard of his water front property, a photographic memory ((like when it comes to trivial small details like what he payed for some insignificant item/how many/ten+yrs ago/and when, but conveniently can't remember other simple things people challenge him on) And while he does a good job of making people think he knows about gear, he's been caught in enough lies to be more than suspect.....

    What he HAS proved is his despicable behavior on these boards. Like attacking a long time poster and mother of a US soldier, Wantonly goading a poster into suicide, advocating child abuse, the list goes on....

    So, inadvertently he has proved EXACTLY who he is, and what he's about......
