    Blackstar Amps.

    Unfortunately for me I do not have the money for a quality Marshall that suits my needs. I do own two Blackstar amplifiers. The HT club 40 is an excellent gig worthy amplifier; and an HT5R Head. Neither will get you the magical Marshall trouser flapping roar; but they come dam close...

    Haze 40 - Great amp with some issues

    I can only comment on the Haze 40 combo. Yes, it sounds great! I spent hours with it at Guitar Center while trying to decide on a amplifier with in my budget. I finally settled on the Haze 40, and last black friday went back to Guitar Center to purchase it. This was over 6 months of trying...

    Blackstar

    I absolutely love my HT40 combo. I was originaly going to get a Haze 40, but guitar center would not sell them. They were actually told by Marshall not to sell anymore Haze 40 amplifiers. The Marshall represenative on the phone said they were discontinuing the Haze 40, and were no longer...

    No Marshall for me :(

    I only play out maybe 4 to 5 times a year. The floor model at the store was beyond cosmetic. I know very little about amplifier repair, other then tube replacement/biasing. Also from what the Marshall represenative was saying; they are no longer accepting returns for the Haze 40. They advise...

    No Marshall for me :(

    I would completely agree with your advice if it were not for a few circumstances. I have no amplifier at all currently, and I really need one. I do not have the cash on hand, so I had to look at financing options. Believe me I looked at Ebay, C/list to see if it was possible to save up the cash...

    No Marshall for me :(

    Well I had every intention of picking up a Haze 40 during the Black Friday sales; but I guess it was just not meant to be. Guitar Center will no longer sell them unless you buy thier beat up floor model. The web site says they are in stock; but will not ship them. The guy I who waited on me...

    PRS Custom 24 - I Was Really Impressed

    I do not own a custom 24 or 22; but I do own a PRS SC245 with 57/08 pick ups, and satin nitro finish. I also have one of the new Studio models, with tremolo, 57/08 humbucker bridge, 57/08 narrow field neck, middle, pattern thin neck. They are the only guitars I own except for my Dad's old 1953...

    New to PRS

    Maybe it is just me. Seriously not trying to trash anyone; but what are you guys not reading correctly on the PRS web site. None of the SE line get options other then color. Certain US made models DO have options, and oters don't. For example the PRS Studio. You have to click on the SPECS...

    Best boost pedal for Marshall JVM?? JCM800? DSL??

    Just because I can not believe no one has mentioned it. I say the Way Huge Green Rhino MKII, is one hell of a killer pedal. It does not color your tone, true bypass, and the low frequency boost pot rules all!!! :rock::headbanger::rock::headbanger:

    Converting Marshall Haze 40 combo to head

    I can not speak for the original poster. I am converting my Haze 40 to a head to avoid the microphonics. Also I am building a 1X12 cabinet using the Marquee that comes with the Haze, and a WGS Veteran 30. The speaker cabinet when I am done will look similar to a bluesbreaker extension cab...

    Best Marshall Amp Sim

    Not to hype up Amplitube 3, but I just wanted to provide information regarding the thread topic. You can download the Amplitube 3 software for free now. It is called Amplitube Custom Shop 3.2, or something like that. It just does not come with all the gear. It is just the raw software...

    Best Marshall Amp Sim

    I have Amplitube 3 currently, and I must say it is very very good. Excellent dynamic response, the Marshall models are pretty dam realistic. I have used Amplitube 3 in a live setting twice, and it worked well straight into the house PA. The new custom shop has some really nice new models as...

    Converting Marshall Haze 40 combo to head

    Those plans look great to me. I will be doing the same thing to a Haze 40 combo very soon. Be sure to post pictures when you are done. I have not purchased my Haze 40 yet. I am waiting for the day after Thanksgiving sales to hit. Good luck to you.

    Speaker Advice

    I am probably going to use the stock Marquee speaker 16 ohm/66 watt, mixed with a WGS Veteran 30 16 ohm/60 watt. That should give the 2X12 cab a nice range. I have started cutting the box joints for the 2x12 birch cabinet, and staining some of the flamed maple accent pieces. I will not be...

    Speaker Advice

    I don't think it is possible to just buy a G12T-66 Marquee with out purchasing a second Haze. What speaker would you guys recommend to fill out the second spot in a 2X12? The type of music I play is AC/DC, Iron Maiden, Jimi Hendrix, Motorhead, Judas Priest....etc; and I dabble in the higher...

    Speaker Advice

    Thanks for all the responses guys. One thing I am still looking for though is suggestions as to which speaker would pair best with the G12T-66 Marquee? I play mostly classic rock/metal. AC/DC, Motorhead, Sabbath, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Hendrix, Zepplin, but I dabble in Megadeth, Pantera...

    Speaker Advice

    Thank you for the reply. Like I mentioned in my post it has been about 22 years since I was in electronics class. You confused me on one point. How does wiring 2 16ohm speakers in parallel add up to 8ohm? I am guessing it has something to do with wiring them in parallel instead of series. I...

    Delivering the RocK!!!!

    Hello everyone. My name is Adam. I am 40 years old. I have just recently picked up the guitar again after 20+ years. I could not believe how much I had missed it once I got going again. All through high school we were rocking out local clubs, and parties. Many times forcing one of our parents to...
