Was obsessed by him for a long time. Learned all the solos from "The Eye" years ago... I really loved the old King Diamond Abigail Live. Then he played on Death's "Individual Thought Patterns" :rock:

Andy LaRocque !

Bought some purple Ernie Ball patch cables and setup a drawer under the Mesa Midi Matrix with EVH themed pedals ! Fun !

What attitude ? The guy seemed kinda low-key and not particularly obnoxious. What did I miss ?

So now rig-talk members don't like Vulgar Display Of Power and Far Beyond Driven ? LOL that's quite unexpected. I think both are masterpieces but what do I know ?

As a direct competitor, I'd rather say he's on shaky ground. My SLO DeYoung tranny emits a slight buzz when I really push the thing. I never heard DeYoung trannies labeled as sub-par. I wouldn't pay $3.5K for a new Marshall either but for $2K used, why not ? Paying new price on high-end guitar...

A guy selling modded marshallesque amps is criticizing Marshall. I guess suspension of judgment is the most rational stance here.

All the other components, resistors/caps/tubes/sockets/jacks etc. are already made in Asia. If anything, it's more congruent LOL

Not sure there is anything substantial demonstrating a drop in quality for Marshall transformers. Lots of youtubers talk doesn't make a truth.

Nothing wrong with that. When a boutique manufacturer releases a mundane/done-a-million-time-already amp at an outrageous price, it's always and de facto somehow justified by fairy dust/crystal lattice/black gooped mystery. Marshall doesn't need that. Good for them.

Yeah, obviously I know that but I like having the switches and front-panel decals properly done at the factory. It's stock. The mk2C+ is a slightly modified amp yet it commands stratospheric prices because the mod was done at the factory. I like my Gibson Axcess. The price was outrageous. I...

I like the tone of both the 1959 and 800 modified on the Marshall/Steve Smith videos. Seems to me both amps sound really good. Yeah it could be cheaper, yeah it could have more switches, yeah it could have been done differently/sooner/later/never yadda yadda. It sounds pretty good. That is all...

Kinda off-topic but I was shocked recently by the new price of EVM 12L Classic. I needed to replace a V30 in a closed back 1x12. I checked on Thomann and they are €539 (!!!) new. WTF ??!!?? I bought one in 2017 for €239 which at the time was already kinda crazy compared to all the other speakers...

That's a fair price. They look kinda rough from the front though. I'd prefer cabs in better shape for that price. Unless you like the relic look LOL

Two Thiele cabs will sound huge no matter what ! Phenomenal bass and smooth treble. But I would use the 4x12s for dry and the Thiele for wet. I'm waiting for a good deal in my neighborhood on two thiele to use with my Mesa 2:90.

$800

I didn't realize Phil Anselmo latest musical endeavor was such a controversial topic LOL

Not bad !

Ugliest things I've seen in a long time ! :poop:

LOL no.
