"I have "tricky stuff" in my amp i dont want to talk about.." Van Halen

Imagine if Mike had of cloned Ed's Marshall and released a line of amps or published the exact schematic and gut pics and spilled all his secrets. He'd have been sued up the ass.

And this forum would grind to a halt.

Yep, money doesn't buy moral integrity unfortunately. Didn't get free stuff, so screw you.

It's cool we got the 5150, but it was still a dick move toward Mike's amp.

Yep

Both Mesa and Peavey committed theft, to a degree anyway. We of course benefitted from it. SLOs have always been spendy and the Recto/5150s have been much more attainable for the masses.

They're still $5K now.

Whatever Eddie was doing was magic, look at the 5150 line of amps for example. He really did take guitar playing as well as tone forward.

Different strokes for different folks... I personally didn't care for the 5150 tone when it came out, I actually won a first year production 5150 stack in Guitar Player Magazines's guitar competition and sold it immediately after recieving it The early Roth era Marshall tone is what most guitarists talk about today and still try to replicate..
