Members Voltaire Posted February 26, 2009 Members Share Posted February 26, 2009 I have respect for all amps, I'm not biased when it comes to tone, if I can get the tone that I want from an amp I'll consider it a good amp. that said, I really am fond of grainy low gain tones which I found in an ac30/rat combo.

Members def ocelot Posted February 26, 2009 Members Share Posted February 26, 2009 it's like cars, mang. the '56 Chevy was the zenith. the apex. so why didn't they stop then? because someone needs to keep building cars to make money. then they over-engineer the {censored} out of everything and suck the mojo out of it with cheaper components, etc., make it more complex and difficult to use, blah blah.

Members glenecho Posted February 26, 2009 Members Share Posted February 26, 2009 As someone who was stuck with nothing but 60s and 70s gear for the beginning years of my playing, I'm happier than {censored} with new gear. No more struggling to get good tones at low volume...multi channel footswitchable amps...cascading gain sections. I haven't played my old Marshalls in eons and don't plan to.

Members Say Ocean Posted February 26, 2009 Members Share Posted February 26, 2009 wow, I'm surprised at the responses from the young guys - I thought for sure I would hear "my Mesa rectifier blows away the Marshalls of the 70's and early 80's" etc. I guess young guys can have a good ear too My rectifier doesn't blow them away, it just does a totally different thing in a totally different way. I also have a marshall. It's a dsl100, and I wish it was a jcm or another single channel amp though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BlackHive Posted February 26, 2009 Members Share Posted February 26, 2009 This is why I paid a premium to purchase a modern amplifier that's wired point to point like an old amp and is voiced like an old amp but won't have the problems of a 40 year old piece of equipment.

Members Kantroce Posted February 26, 2009 Members Share Posted February 26, 2009 Who gives a {censored} what time period an amp came from? The only thing that matters is the sound you are going after and can you actually {censored}ing play guitar with some coherence. I'd love to shove a Dumble up your nostalgic ass. Oh, Framus Cobra and ENGL Powerball here and I don't want an amp for the seventies or the eighties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
