What is going on with Marshall and their lack of shipments of speakers, and amps to the United States?

Marshall (the brand) is too big to fail like Gibson,

Tell that to blockbuster...
I Say the Marshall forum will buy the amp department!
How many forum members do we have?
Each puts 20000 euro and we can do it!!!

Blockbuster, TWA, etc sold a service not a product, and even that service was no different/better than Mom & Pop’s video or United Airlines. Legacy product (not service) has brand value, which is why S&W changed hands at least 3 times in this lifetime and Colt’s bankruptcy is a mere footnote as both continue to churn out product.

Sure, but then your cab is a Friedman and not a Marshall.

Is a Friedman cab inferior to a Marshall one then ? Or is it a case of it not having the Marshall logo on it ? ( just asking) I would really like a Friedman cab personally but not at twice the price new of a Marshall one here in the UK ( plus I can pick up a decent used 1960 cab for £200 any time ) .
