Monster Sound

Monster Sound

Hello all! I really enjoy seeing the Marshall rigs listed here.

I want to share my rare Marshall Bass Cabinets with everyone. These have 4 15's in each cabinet and are 76" tall and 35" wide. What a monster sound with my Gibson Ripper Bass! They're in great shape and have the original covers. The only time I've ever seen anyone with cabinets like this was at a Nazareth concert. Has anyone else ever seen these before?

Hi Marshall

Marshall is the best amps in the world. I bought my Marshall MG50DFX a number of days ago, and I will never even consider trying anything else than Marshall... Here is the picture of my MG50DFX, my Fender Strat. and my Gibson Les Paul Standard

Thanks for creating Marshall

Dear folks at Marshall!!
I have faithfully used Marshall amps since 1978.... I have played wit hand recorded professionally for many years & with many artists:
Gilby Clarke(ex Guns&Roses axe man)
Beat Angels
Glass Heroes
Busted Hearts
The Rogues and many others.
I have had many models, but my tride 'n true are my 8 full stacks topped with 8 Marshall model 2555 silver Jubillee's!! The five pictured here are in my studio...I have three Slash Signiture models, but use the other five primarily. They are all stock!! and loaded with Svetlana EL 34 Power tubes. These baby's have never let me down!!..and I mean NEVER!! Huge sound, and durability. These baby's are getting harder to find, and I cherish them!! I have a collection of over 32 Gibson LesPauls to compliment my 2555's...and they have given me many years of satisfaction. Thanks to JIm & the folks at Marshall for supporting musicians world wide!! *SALUTE*
Cheers

I decided to send in some pictures of my trusty 1976 JMP. I have owned this amp for 23 years, and it has been my heart and soul. This is the best sounding Marshall I have ever heard. My thanks to Jim Marshall. I included a few photos of the signatures on the inside of the head.

After 32 years I finally own a Marshall Stack! As you can see an amp of this stature should be kept under the tightest of security. Shown here is my MGII, my Lester, and my attack cat, 'Lil Buddy.

Thanks for making the best amps in the world.

Perfect Amp

Hi Jim!

Here's a shot of my new Mode Four and my VS65R Valvestate. I just love Marshall Amps. I keep coming back to them.The Mode Four is just fantastic. It does everything I need it to do and them some. It's the perfect amp for the type of music I play and the band that I'm in. It does it all! I also included my two favorite guitars, Custom Shop Firebird VII and EDS-1275. Guitar playing doesn't get any better than this! Thanks for making my guitars sound as good as they do!

Hi there

My name is Bobby and here is a picture of my babies, a mg 15 and 100 dfx, and my bc rich warlock. I have just left home and these amps have been my rock. I used to be drowned out by the drummer in my band, but now my marshalls are more than a match for his blasting. I have experimented with many amps, but marshall just has the best sound. i would never dream of buying an amp that isn't a marshall anymore. when you get an amp that sounds as good as mine does, why bother changing it? i accidently bought the 100 dfx instead of my girlfriends birthday present. i then locked myself in my room for a week just to try it out! keep up the good work guys!

Who Da Man?

Who Da Man?

I just got this amp used from a consignment shop locally, I live in Rhode Island, and this amplifier is by far the best one I've owned in a lot of years. It's the VS100RH with matching 4x12 cabinet, and while I do use effects with it, I find it sounds best when the guitar is plugged directly into it. It's great for recording ( i do a lot of solo stuff on my computer ), and it's definately gig-worthy, my old amp used to compete to be heard, and I have no trouble at all with this gem. You da man, Jim.

Peace. Mattiack

First Timer!

I`ve been playing guitar for more than thirty years, and i`m sorry to say that this is only my first marshall amp. I don`t know why i waited so long. This amp has great tone great crunch, and overall great sound. I`ll never need to play anything else ever. I love the effects on this amp. Awesome. I`ve sent a couple of pictures of my mg100hdfx, which i got only three days ago.

Hi Jim,

Here's a pic of our bands guitar rigs. Rack: Marshall EL34 100/100 through a 1960a Cab, and... Marshall JCM2000 TSL100 through a 1960a cab. We also have two Marshall 1922 cabs (not pictured) for smaller venues. Marshall are the best - next purchase JMP-1.

Cheers Guv'nor Jim for keeping us sounding great with that Marshall valve tone.

Complete At Last!

Complete At Last!

Hi, my name is Stu and after months of waiting I have FINALLY completed my setup by sitting an original JCM900 4100 head on top of my 1936 2x12 cab loaded with a pair of brand new Celestion Vintage 30's.

My main guitar is a Fernandes Ravelle Deluxe with an SD JB in the bridge and an SD Jazz in the neck. I run it all through a Dimebag wah and a tuner with a Rat, Muff, EVH Phase 90, 80's analog MXR Flanger, Maxon Chorus, TR-2 and DD-2 in the FX loop. The combined sounds are limitless!!

What can I say? It has the classic Marshall growl, the reverb is delicious and the clean channel is amazing - how anyone can slate these amps is beyond me.

Thanks you, Jim and Marshall Co. My tone and I thank you.
