Marshall and Boogie together

I bought the Radial ABY box. I can’t use the Mimiq because it still has a ground hum even if I put a battery in it and change the grounds on the amps.

Hopkins Marshall sounds really good here. Love when it is mixed with the Mesa. Reminds me of when I mix my Quick Rod and Rectoverb. :yes:

Love my Mimiq too.

What's up with the grounding noise you were talking about? What do you mean 'change the grounds on the amps'?

The amps have ground switches that flip the ground.
 
I run into a MXR ABY and then run those 2 outputs into the Mimiq and then off to the Quick Rod and Rectoverb. My mimiq sucked through batteries for some reason so wired it up. I had grounding issues last year after I got the ABY and learned that everything needed to be on the same wall outlet and then I ground lift the Rectoverb with a ground lift plug and now it is dead silent.
 
I like them both together. The one adds to what the other doesn't have.They add to each other..Thats why blending is so cool.
 
I hooked up the mimic pedal to the boogie and put speakers on either side of the Marshall stack, I also have a personal monitor so I can hear myself. 13 speakers in total.

I took this video about two hours after band practice with the amps still set at band volume which is maybe one on the master on all three 50 W amps, so I have a ton more headroom. I just chugged an E chord for about five minutes just soaking it all in, the best tone of my life, it’s unreal in the room.

That sounds killer! They blend together great. Both amps seem to both be finding a spot to shine through very well.

Did a Rectifier and a Stiletto on our second album, Rectifier and Knucklehead on the third, and this year will release our fourth with a Rectifier and an Uberschall. The Mesa/Marshall thing works well.

I always blend amps for my tone so this up my ally . I think these two are great . I have a friend with these two brand abs he says it’s sacrilegious to use both at same time . That’s crazy to me

For me, this is precisely why I just didn’t vibe with the JJ100.
Jerry runs what 3 to 4 amps combined?
It’s nearly a placebo of Jerry’s tone.

Totally . And even now what’s he blend with the JJ to get his tone down these days ? It sucks because the head is always one piece
 
That Hopkins has such a cool rich saturation to it . I really like it a lot
