I saw an old friend, made up with an even older friend, decided that moving in with my sister and her boyfriend might not be the best decision, and spent a lot of money on silly things like food and drink. It was worth it. I think.

I had a look at some vids and at the website...anyone have any experience with these amps? or can anyone tell if these are Marshall Plexi style amps - which is what i think they are...http://www.martamp.com/amps.html. The one i'm getting is a little different to the one the website, it only has a Volume, Tone, Power knobs and two inputs (suspect and high and low input)

on the Cab side, he's given me a choice between Eminence Legend 125 or WGS Reaper...neither of which i have ever had in any of my amps, so if anyone has had these before or looked at these then would be great to hear your thoughts.

I figure this would be a better deal than buying a new Ampeg GVT, based on build quality and tone...?

Oh, MJW make good quality gear. They're highly sought after in the UK. I haven't actually played one, but they're all based roughly on vintage Marshall topology, so I hear. Music Radar has a bunch of threads on them.

Eminence Legend speakers are very good. They're like a V30 without the harshness. Soldano helped make them popular. No experience with WGS Reapers.

samzadgan wrote:so whats more important in getting a thick clean tone...pre-amp tubes or output tubes? this amp I'm looking at has ECC83's and EL84's...and i'm pretty sure that's what my Blackstar had, which was ok, but my Rocker 30 has ECC83's and EL34's, and sounds really good. Does the output tubes make the difference, or is a number of other variables that aren't easy to mod?

It depends more on how the circuit manipulates the tubes than the tubes themselves. Most EL84 amps are weak and delicate, but some cook and clean with the best of them, just at lower volume thresholds. My Fryette uses those baby EL84s and it has gobs of low-end and punch. It's a Doom machine through and through. Nobody but me uses it for that, but that's what makes it so special. ;)


thanks man appreciate the advice...i spent a lot of time looking into the MJW amps and like you say they are really nice amps. As it turns out though, i pulled out my Orange and played it to test it before i traded and after not playing through it for a couple of months, i fell back in love with it. Its just such a nice sounding amp on clean, and i played with the dirt side to just add a very small touch of gain, just a little below breakup...and that with the Sarcophagus sounds amazing. So the plan now is to keep the orange until i start to gig and then ill sell it for a Laney GH100 head.

but all that research into MJW has really given me something to think about if i have the money someday for a custom build.

Well lets double check your math... Since the velcro covers 7/8's of the 4 slat board and is ten feet in total..... we need to find the length of 1 slat.

10 = 7/8 (4X)
10 / 7/8 = 4X
11.43 = 4X
11.43 / 4 = X
2.86ft = X

Since X = Feet measurements we multiply X times 12 to get the inches measurements.

According to my math each slat is 34.29 inches. :idk:

I wouldn't say that buddy! Yup if it was 30" wide he would have been able to finish but just barely. And yeah doing anything on the toilet does not always yield the most focused results :lol:
