    Marshall's are good for some things. Hi-Watts for others... but the Vox AC30TB is pretty versatile.

    Although, obviously... I would love to have one of each and a Fender Deluxe and a Fender Bassman and a...
  3. I have owned a Marshall and now I have a VOX AC30CC2X. I have to say overall, for U2 tones, I like the Vox a lot better. It's bright, and warm, and it sounds really nice. I do love the distortion on Marshall amps though, really crisp overdrive that truly screams. But now that I just got my MIJ Boss OD-2, I can make my Vox scream as well!

    P.S Man looking at those pics of Adam, he's a god damn pimp, with all of those open shirts and jackets. What a cool guy
  4. I play a H&K Tubeman through an 18 watt class A power head and a Celestion Vintage 30. Couldn't be more versatile. Additionally I use a Danelectro mini floorboard with autowah, vibrato, tremolo, reverb and delay. During a worship set I always have my slide and my E-bow handy, just in case the spirit comes crashing in and we happen to start jamming on stage.

    My main guitar is a strat that I assembled from a MIM deluxe ash body, a Highway1 rosewood neck, a Wilkinson 2- point tremolo, two texas special single coils and a Little 59. Sounds beautiful.

    I tried a Bassman the other day at Guitar center...incredible! Yeah my ultimate rig would be my new AC50, a Bassman and a nice Marshall, maybe a Crate too.

    Here's one of a conference service I've been playing in.


    Assembling a strat from parts isn't much more difficult than assembling LEGO bricks. Try it once with cheapo parts, then you can do it yourself forever. Building your own body, neck, fretboard is much more difficult. So I don't do that.

    Cool stuff Alex

    A friend from my old high school built his own guitar for a DT project from scratch, said it's the heaviest thing he's ever played lol! But it's perfectly functional which is the main thing, just slightly impractical
