I have never owned a Wizard. I see a lot of reviews that reference ear fatigue and it’s scared me away. I get a little of that from my 2204. But the same frequencies that may cause that also work so well with a band mix, I guess.
What tubes are in the Marshall?
I’ve had a number of Tim and Timmy’s. They all work great. What’s with all the Timmy’s on reverb for $800 and up? What a bunch of fucking idiots.
Great location to buy and sell. Or at least it used to be. They still have the most traffic. There is a guy with the username Overdrive. He has been selling the same few amps for over a year now. They are all overpriced and he doesn't miss a day to bump them.
I probably saw you at that show.
I just came inside. I was in the shop and I fired up the Husky TE300. Can't wait to rip some woods. Going to be a while longer though.
Yeah I have all those. The Mythical OD works best but the BB isn't far behind. The SD-1 has its place but it's noisy. I love the flexibility of the low input on the JCM. It takes pedal so well you can get all kinds of different sounds. I am ordering an SLO plus pedal and see if I can't juice...
Same. It was fine but I got better tones from pedals.
I got a chance to play the 800 with the band tonight. Got damn these Marshalls are designed to sit in the mix. R7 into BB pre into low input. I think I’m finally happy. After 30 plus years of chasing my tail.
Saw them in Detroit play Mindcrime start to finish. Probably around '88 or '89. Suicidal Tendencies opened for them.
Yes, I am 100 years old. Or at least that's how I feel this morning.
I have a Bogner OS 2x12 that confirms what you are saying. It’s punchier than my Marshall 4x12. I’ve had the 2/12 for probably 20 years. It’s almost as big as the 4x12 tho. 4x12s have a weird phasing issue that makes it less punchy, I think. I might be talking out of my ass
Thought I would share one of my songs. Probably not the usual style for you guys but I welcome your input. I recorded this a couple years ago. I play all the instruments except the drums. Those were done in Logic. The guitar was a Waterloo.
Anyhow, I hope you like it.
Here is a quick and dirty video of the JCM800. The first half is direct, no boost. The second half is with a Rimrock Mythical Overdrive Klon clone.
