Members ratter Posted October 4, 2006 Members Share Posted October 4, 2006 The best Marshall is not Marshall. No matter what you do, if you want the best Marshall, make sure it doesn't say Marshall on it. Get a Splawn, or an Engl , or a Germino. Get a Traynor YCV20...I hear those do a great plexi sound. Just, for the love of god, NO MARSHALL. Oh, and the same goes for strats. Get a Warmoth or a Peavey Predator. Whatever you do, make sure your strat doesn't say Fender on it. You'd be a fool to buy a Fender Stratocaster. And don't even get me started on Les Pauls. If you've purchased a Gibson Les Paul, you might as well go shoot yourself in the head right now. Agile, LTD, Schecter....these are the REAL Les Pauls. As a matter of fact, Les Paul himself plays a Schecter Hellraiser these days. True. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Sordid1 Posted October 4, 2006 Members Share Posted October 4, 2006 That's funny and a common thought. Personally I love the tone of Marshalls and if I wanted that tone I probably would just buy a Marshall although the Splawn is awfully tempting.

Members ratter Posted October 4, 2006 Author Members Share Posted October 4, 2006 This is a quote from Les Paul, from last month's Guitar World:Of course, I lent my name to the Gibson Les Paul. I was proud to do so. At the time, I felt like it was the best electric guitar that money could buy and I was glad to be associated with it. But times change. It's a shame to see what Gibson has become these days - the quality just isn't what it used to be. And one day, I received a phone call from Hiroshomo Takai at Schecter. He said, "Res, we make you guitar." He likes to call me Res Par...not sure why. Just his sense of humor I guess. Real nice guy. But anyway, he sent me a guitar to try, and it was incredible. I like that it's affordable, and I like the flexibility and the options available. So I asked Hiroshima if he could make me a Hellraiser in a subtle redburst with skull inlays and a pierced cock engraved on the truss rod cover, and he said, "sure Res, anything for my favorite number one GI". Just a real polite fella, and they make a great guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members yngzaklynch Posted October 4, 2006 Members Share Posted October 4, 2006 Mike when you crank your Plexi through the hot plate you get THE tone. That is the only time in my life I heard an amp get that close to the old EVH tone in my life in person. You got the real thing and it ain't just hype. If we ever go to another amp fest I'm sure your amp will make a lot of heads turn. No pun intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Goolash Posted October 4, 2006 Members Share Posted October 4, 2006 On forums and the internet in genaral. Their will always be bias opinions. A gathering to praise and worship one or two brands and {censored} all over the other 500 brands. EVERY brand that has high end gear, will make products that are able to compete with other companies. Guys like Marshall and Gibson set the standard of what should be and what to strive for.....KICK ASS TONE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
