Marshall Line Amp Demo

[FlyingVBlues]

This clip is from a gig my fusion band played last night. I’m using my 1956 Les Paul Custom modded with 1960 PAF’s, the Marshall Line Amp I received from Tim Thompson of Audio Eyra this week, a Jim Kelley 1x12 with an Electro-Voice EVM-12S and a little bit of reverb from a UA Golden Reverberator. I did the recording with a Zoom F8n Pro Multitrack Field Recorder and a pair of Neumann KM 184 mics in a XY configuration.

Marshall amps produce great tones and they’ve been used on tons of classic recordings that I love but I have always struggled to make them work for me. The Marshall platform that Tim built and the addition of Jim Kelley’s Line Amp harmonic generator circuit is quite extraordinary, and I’m just at the beginning of understanding how to dial it in. On the surface Marshall amps are pretty simple, but the Marshall Line Amp has a huge palette of tones available and the dynamics resulting from varying your pick attack is amazing.

Rob, thank you for making it possible for me to get this fantastic amp.

My pleasure. I’m thrilled you find it to be as extraordinary as I do. I had a feeling which is why I made the recommendation. Enjoy!

 

[Geetarman74]

Absolutely fantastic playing and tone! Love your band. Bravo!

I also received my Marshall Line this week and already regard it as one of the best amps I’ve ever owned or heard. Just scratching the surface of what it can do but I can’t get a bad sound out of it. And the feel and dynamics at whisper quiet volumes are extraordinary.

 

[Ed536m]

That is an amazing sounding amp and band. Fantastic playing and the amp sat so well in the mix!! Enjoy it!

 

[Stark]

Amp sounds fantastic, and the playing is stellar!

Amp sounds fantastic, and the playing is stellar!

Thank you Adam. Your use of a Dumble modded Marshall on your Twist album was one of the factors in deciding to buy this amp. I love the tones you got on that record.

The tones and playing on that album are awe-inspiring.

Thank you. We are certainly fortunate to own such a spectacular amp.

You, your band and that amp sound great. Love it! Thanks for sharing!

 

[beckstriad]

just wanted to tack on a meager clip to this glorious one you've posted. Messing around with the Fulltone TTE today. This is done plugged into the bottom input 1. Cab is a 1x15 Audio Eyra cab with an SRO 15 in it:

That sounds amazing. The guitar and amp are obviously great, but I particularly like your choice of cab and speaker!

 

[FlyingVBlues]

Thanks. That cab and speaker sounds great with every amp I use it with.

I did this scratch clip last night. I hadn’t intended on posting it as it’s just a warmup I do to knock the rust off. However, I won’t be able to make better ones until the weekend. So this is it for now. As always thank you Beckstriad for hosting my clips.

Straight in 2nd top input (normal)
channel all the way up. Master was on about 3 (haha I know) and headroom was all the way up also.

Speaker was the most convenient to get to. A fullback 15 in an old Drew cab.

Sounds awesome!! Single coils or humbuckers?
