I probably would have said Marshall a few years ago. But as much as I liked owning a Marshall, I never got to play it at the volume it needed to be awesome. Havent owned a low watt Marshall.

Roland (jc120). That amp made me happy for a long time. Maybe it’s my favourite so far, but I did sell it for good reasons.
They keep telling me tone is in the fingers, but I have yet to see a "look at my fingers" thread.

There's something about an amp with references to psalms inside being forced into a lifelong servitude of grindcore/metal that appeals to me

Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Friedman, but any high quality Marshall clone would be fine.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

but those companies take away the fun of having to dial in a tone. And they don't do a "marshall" tone, they do hot rodded marshall tones :wink:

Lots of people who played old Marshall's basically did everything on 10 anyway, not a whole lot of dialling involved, haha.
