Back in my tube amp days, I was all about Vox amps and their variants (Bad Cat, Matchless, Dr Z). I never really tried Marshalls because I didn't think they fit as well with what I played.
In every other digital device I've used, the Marshall amps just didn't really sound good to me. They were always super scooped, fizzy, had gobs of gain, weren't responsive, had a shrill top end, and just didn't sound like anything I would ever have a use for.
Then came my AxeFX III...
The Marshall models in here are beyond killer! I just can't even believe how much I love them. They don't sound anything at all like other digital models of Marshalls I've ever used. They are so much better balanced, and responsive.
I can't pull myself away from the 1959SLP and JTM45. They are just unreal. I had no idea Marshalls could sound like this when I played them.
So thank you Fractal to this introduction to Marshall amps and all the goodness they are capable of when done right!
