slashNstrad Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 do the solidstate marshall amps have the marshall sound?also, is there a good tube amp that wouldnt be too loud (for practising purpose) when the vol. is half way up?cos if the vol. knob is at 2 or 3 the tubes wont be warm enough and it wont produce the max sound.

Raw Power Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 do the solidstate marshall amps have the marshall sound?No, You will not be able to get the sound of an tube amp out of a solidstate amp. When you say "The Marshall" sound are you thinking about Superlead plexi tone or JCM800-tish tone? You will not be able to get any of them with soldstates as MG's. also, is there a good tube amp that wouldnt be too loud (for practising purpose) when the vol. is half way up?cos if the vol. knob is at 2 or 3 the tubes wont be warm enough and it wont produce the max sound.You can use a powerbreake/hotplate if the amp doesnt have an master volume. You will not get the excact sound as if you kranked it for real, but you get a pretty decent sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
