1971 200 watt Marshall Marshall Major played through 25 watt Celestion greenbacks to get that warm crunchy old school rock sound.

  • I know it's a vintage amp but also you look just like I did in 1976 - I don't want to worry you but I am one ugly dude now. Nice playing. Just one thing though, I think Marshalls with master volumes came in in about 76-77, are you sure yours is '71?.

  • @sludgefingers Only time will tell how ugly I'm gonna get. This amp is not stock, I did several mods to it, including the master volume.

  • what are you settings on your amp ? Hope you dont mind me asking.

    you have everything at 11 ?

    volume at 10

    presence 1

    treble 4

    mid 8

    bass 6

  • @d33ferer Here are my settings as far as I can remember...

    Preamp volume: 6

    Master volume: 2

    Treble:10

    Mid:10

    Bass:10

    Presence:10

  • you ever use g12 65's? how do they compare in your opinion to greenbacks... would you suggest mixing the two in a 4x12 cab?

  • @Coonetta I've never used 65's before. I don't know if there would be an advantage to mixing the two in a cab since you normally only mic one speaker.

  • cool :-)

  • BUT DOES IT GO TO 1.......????

  • great tone dude

  • I hate my neighbors too.

  • What a great tone very bluesy good job ;)

  • Did you use an attenuator of some kind, or just straight 200 tube watts ? Wow man, you must be deaf by now, if you played this beast with no attenuation. I only have a 50 watt 4 holer, but I'm afraid to play it without an attenuator in my small room. I'm sure I would sh*t my pants then. And it's only a 50 watter, not a 200 watter like this beast.

    But it sounds good :)

  • rock on bro...

  • you are one lucky guy I wish I had one of them amps and wish I could blast my amp like that

  • I like the messed up riffin at the beginning....
