Bought a Marshall DSL made in Vietnam. I have Marshalls made in the UK. I really can't tell the difference other than the Vietnam made amp has screws instead of rivets on the protective corners and the vinyl covering is a bit different. Inside the amp the parts and circuit boards look the same. They very well could be the same. Just those components were assembled in Vietnam other than the UK and a line worker is cheaper Vietnam.

Been doing some reading on China's economy and they really do need to transition from being an export economy to paying their people more and selling to their own domestic base. The problem is the government is still authoritarian and Xi Jinping wanting to be dictator for life just shows the mindset of who runs the place. Most the factories for export in China are owned by foreigners. What the Chinese government runs and owns is military stuff and consumer stuff nobody wants to buy. It's a weird mix of communism and capitalism but the old communist guard doesn't want to give up their old ways. You are going to see other countries start to replace China as the world's producer because China is going to have serious internal problems. We are going to see lots of civil unrest in China in the future.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

I have a friend who picked up a Jet City HDM 100 amp for $500. We hooked it up through my EVH cab and man that thing sounded great. I always liked the Soldano SLO 100 but they are expensive and the Jet City is a Chinese made amp designed by Mike Soldano. It sounded like a Soldano but gave you the option to go half power if you want. One channel is classic rock crunch and the other is high gain. I liked it. If you can score one cheap it's a good alternative to a 5150. In some ways I liked the Jet City better.No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!Comment

I would buy a chinese made guitar. I just don't buy anything Chinese that goes in my body or is supposed to keep me safe.
I've heard good things about the Jet City amps too.
My biggest worry regarding the Chi-Coms is their 3000 year old manifesto to eventually rule the world. They are running a marathon, not a sprint. They certainly want to dominate Asia / Asia Pacific.sigpic" You ever notice when I scream I sound like Mr. Bill on acid" DLRComment

Peavey 6505MH is pretty loud, and with the USB out it'll hook right up to your DAW.Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.Comment

So got this amp yesterday. Boss Katana 100. Really cranks! Lots of features that I haven't had a chance to explore. Can download and tweak 50 Boss pedals with software. $350.00 plus great reviews. What's not to like!?
The 50W version is only $220.00. A steal.

Pure shite. Looks like overgrown bowlcut is hoping for an invitation to Howdy doody Mountain...

That Jack White video is fucking terrible. His guitar tone is so bad it sounds like there is something wrong with his equipment. The song is shit and the playing terrible.
EVH should consider paying him not to use his stuff.Comment
