Re: Marshall Super Bass for guitar ?
Which "Marshall dude"?
I ask because the Superbass amps had nothing to do with Hendrix at all...
Im being serious Jerry...where do you get all this crap??
dude for heaveans sake , you operate on a extremely literal basis.I was only saying that i talked to..hang on..Well, I cant find his last name.. but he is called "stringking"on the web and he worked with Jim Marshall for along time.His name is Roger. I was implying that the Superbass is a Plexi style amp, and when I asked Roger about doing a Plexi conversion on my Traynor bassman, he advised me to get a Master volume Marshall cause in his words, the Plexi and Superleads werre made for Jimi and Eric ( guess i better say" etc". here, so its not taken quite literally) and meant to be used in stadiums .
I noticed we don't connect on things lke when I said my Traynor YSr-1a Custom reverb is a Blackface Bassman style amp and sounds alot like it, you said they wre also nothing alike. Well, Ive been a memeber of the Trayne forums for 2 years now, and we hae discused hat amp before there , and its acknowledeged that the Custom Reverb was voiced to be a Bassman style amp- and it is .
Then you said my Sunn 100S was nothing like a Bassman, and immidatly someone came and supported my statement after you also said taht there were zero similarities there also .
Its okay not to know everything, and Ive said some way tangeantial and wrong stuff, but I am not wrong and pulling stuff outta my azz ALL the time. Thats Emty pockets sctick about me , some of it dobtless well desreved, but to be honest Ive been playing 35 years and have been involved with alot of differebnt stuff that Empty, with all due respect , couldnt possibly have had the time to find out yet .
I think where we run into trouble , you and I, is that you have a very broad encyclopedic database of gear knowledge which covers both new production stuff as well as Older stuff and therefore try to be as precise and exact as possible to avoid obfuscateing the facts whereas I have a more generalistic approach to cover the stuff Ive used personally, which is alot of 35 years, or I just like to throw out suppositions about stuff that i have heard or read about just foir the hell of it ; its a great way to learn as people are usually pretty quick to correct inaccuracies here.IDK.
