    Current Marshall JVM versus pre MAV transformers?

    Does anyone have any first hand experience with the current production JVM 410 since they switched to Vietnamese transformers? How about the other full sized Marshall amps. 1959HW, 2203x and 1987X. I have seen the video that Jason from headfirst does that shows the 800 with low plate voltage...

    Still Snorkler love?

    I just got mine yesterday after 6 month back order... It sounds a whole lot like an old Bogner modded JMP 2204 that was made for my friend Toru back in the mid 90's Very saturated and toothy with lots of spit and snarl. Not the most dynamic, but excels at saturated modded Marshall tones...

    Your favorite shredder?

    Ron Thal. aka Bumblefoot. His musical vocabulary is sooo vast, coupled with incredible technique and creativity! I loved Early Yngwie too. Saw him in '83 with Alacatrazz. Mind blowing!

    Megadeth or Metallica?

    Metallica had better songs, Megadeth better musicianship. Megadeth would be better without Mustaine's singing and whining!! Metallica would be better without Lars and Kirk.

    Getting more JCM clunk out of my Wiz MC1..

    I think you are chasing ghosts to be frank. Using some sort of Marshall derivative pre amp into the Wizard 'to preserve the back end of the Wiz"would probably sounds good. But the Marshall power section imparts much of "that" sound. If you want Marshall tone, get a Marshall... I recently...

    Why do you have so many guitars?

    Sometimes I think I may sell a guitar or two, but I actually use most of them frequently depending on what songs we are playing. I do have 3 Les Pauls but one is set up in E flat and the other has p90's. Other than that there is not really much duplication and each guitar has a distinct sound...
