I have a Marshall 4x12 with 2 V30s and 2 Hellatones in an X pattern. The drummer of my band has been away for a while so we havent had practice. The loudest I've had my amp (Marshall 2203) is about 4.5 on the master, but the Hotplate is at about -20db. At that volume am I getting a somewhat...

Whenever I have any questions about guitar, I always come to this forum first. Everyone has been really helpful and I wouldn't have my current set up if it weren't for all the tips. So I wanted to show you guys the monster you helped create :) Main amp: 1982 Marshall JCM 800 2203 with Ralph...

My JCM 800 doesn't have an effects loop so I want to use the Line Out on my Hot Plate. I just wanted to know though, is it okay to run it into a really clean amp and not a power amp? Also, from the Hot plate line out to the effects, I would use an instrument cable, not a speaker cable, right...

I just recorded my amp (Marshall JCM 800 2203) with a new Shure SM57 mic I just bought. I just did a clip to show the tone, no fancy playing here. Any comments, suggestions for better recording sound are welcome, im very new at the whole recording thing. Thanks...

How would 2 V30s and 2 G12H30s sound in a Marshall 4x12 with a Marshall JCM 800 2203? Would the total rating of 120 watts be enough for a 100 watt head? Ive heard of people using this combo in an open back cabinet, but how would it sound in a closed 4x12? Thanks for any help!

I got a quick question. Today, my friend brought over his JCM 800 head (with horizontal inputs) and we played it with my cabinet and guitars. I'm not sure what kind of tubes he had in there, but with his amp, we got a nice tone with the treble on about 6 and the mids at about 5. With my amp...

I really like the sound I'm getting from my amp when I'm at a 45 degree angle (the way a mic would be set up). But, when I stand in front of the cabinet (slanted, with V30s) it sounds thin. Would a Weber Beam Blocker help to make the amp sound good at every angle? Would the 45 degree angle sound...

Do you guys think I should continue using my JCM 800 2203 with a ZW-44 in front, or have the amp modded? Also, what are your thoughts on the different mods (tone, what bands they sound like) by people like Cameron, Splawn, Voodoo, and Bray?

Have any of you tried a Duncan Distortion with a 500k volume pot and bypassed tone pot? Does it sound any good? Thoughts? Thanks!

Just curious if anyone with a Blue Book can look up a price for me. How much would a new (between 2000 - 2005) Gibson 67 Reissue Flying V in Heritage Cherry go for? Thanks for any help!

I just bought a new guitar, so unfortunately, I have to let one go. I'm selling a used 98 Black Epiphone Explorer. It has a few dings, but it is in very good shape. Also,one of the strap buttons was put switched to the back of the neck for better balance. I will include a hardshell case and an...
