Chris is awesome.. I've seen him a few times now demo'ing for marshall.. at the manchester show this year they put on a great show, there was a bassist and a drummer also... the drummer was insane, he ran around the room drumming on people's hats and tabletops etc..

Do you know anything about the cd he put out? They say "remember to buy his cd" in the clip, but I haven't been able to find it anywhere.

Hey thanks for the link. That was cool.

I think the AVT275 sounded surprisingly good.

Re: Cool Marshall amps demonstration

It does, it sounds EXCELLENT actually, try listening to this mp3 from Marshall's site:

This is recorded with the AVT275 combo. Damn, makes me want one ;-)

Re: Cool Marshall amps demonstration

Ive listened to about half of it so far and, is it me, or does that lil avt amp just blow the doors off of its tube brethren in tone? Maybe its the Hendrix?

Re: Cool Marshall amps demonstration

Well, as Marshall writes on their site: "Combined with numerous user friendly features, we believe we've created the best value-for-money range of Marshall amplifiers ever!"

I own an AVT50 and am having a hard time believing anything with the letters A V and T, all in a row, in that order, with any combination of numbers after it, will blow the doors off of anything, other than me destroying the Piece of sh!t amp that the AVT is.

Now I have to watch this video. :laugh2:

I know that clips, that's just Geoff Whitehorn who is a monster player and could make anything sound good. You can still hear the awfull buzzsaw sound of that amp and it's not smooth at all. I used to think it was a good clip too until I compared it to real tube amp. It still has the same buzzy lack of character that solid state amps have.

Well, maybe it's just my untrained ear that think's it sounds good then ;-)

It's just the horrible clipping of the amp. One of the main reasons tube amps are desirable is because they are much smoother under gain. If you listen to enough amps and then go back and listen to the AVT clip you'll know what I mean. But then again, if you're used to hearing SS amps all of the time, it's going to sound good to you.

To each his own i guess, whatever.

The clip sounds pretty darned good to me. I just hear a nice smooth distortion, what you describe reminds me more of the MG series which imo are really nasty (not in a good way)



to noone in particular:


Ive owned tube amps and ive owned solid state amps and ive also sized different amps up side by side recently and i know what sounds good to me, and to me the AVT sounded better than the amps he played before it. Ive played AVT amps in the past and have always liked them though never owned one. Im not a marshall pimp in general, far from it, I generally prefer everything but.
