Another legend gone. Thanks for your contribution to music as we know it, Jim. Who's going to make cool stuff after all these old guys kick off.  |

Those guys from that generation - Jim Marshall, Les Paul, Leo Fender, Semmie Mosrite, George Bigsby, et al, were inventors and tinkerers whose impact is still felt today. I think we should honor them by continuing to invent, tinker, and collaborate on our ideas.
Somebody out there has the next big idea...let it out!

I was at GuitarCenter today and saw one of the 1-watt....yes, 1-watt Marshall Anniversary heads. Pretty cool....for $750!
Has anybody seen these yet?

I haven't seen that yet, but sounds like fun.
I was disappointed to learn that their Class 5 tube amp, which had been selling for $400 now goes for $500. I was hoping to get one. It would be my first Marshall.
