Marshall shoot out - which do you prefer ?

Re: Marshall shoot out - which do you prefer ?

Not necessarily that I'm not a Marshall fan, I think whoever made that demo could've done a better job. It was not miced up very well. At least that's my opinion.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to agree with you there. None of those amps were recorded very well - I've heard my LEAST favorite Marshall put out a sounds that were better than what was on there.

Something was off in the signal chain - mic, EQ on the amp, something... all the tones just sounded dry and ratty and gritty.

You really have to crank older tube Marshalls to get them to bloom - maybe they just weren't dialed in the way I like to hear them.

JCM 900 MK III (DSL100H a close second)
Vintage Modern with mid boost was a very strong contender also.
The JTM-1C had interesting potential to me.
