Hey everyone! Thanx for suggesting Slacktone and some othe cool bands
i didnt know about earlier.
I've been thinking for a while which amp i should get. I read loads
about current fender products like Twin Reverb, reissue Bassman, Hot
Rods and other tube amps. It seems like many people say things
like 'Wish Leo was back to get things back to normal with Fender'.
They talk about plastic input jacks on fenders, rattling tubes,
unreliable reverbs, purely decorative 'ground' switches which are
simply for nostalgic purposes, cheap tubes and all so on. Custom shop
amps like Vibro-King seem to be overly expensive.
I am not able to get all those wonderful vintage Showman heads off
ebay as I am not in America.
I've heard an alternative may be Sovtek amps (which use old marhsall
and fender schematics, sound good, but are very affordable), or
Kustom Tuck 'n' Roll tube amps. I have seen neither of those.
But Marshalls are readily available. I dont know much about them, but
I think they've got Vintage Series Tube amps which are like 100
watts, and basically only have tone and volume controls. No reverb.
Some have built in Tremolo effect.
So I was just wondering if any of you played marshalls, what you
think about the quality and their sound. Do they sound nice clean, or
are they supposed to be cranked up?
