i'm liking this thread! :) marshall may not be what they used to be, but the vintage modern show they can still get there finger out, and to speak the truth - DSL and JCM900 weren't so bad. i'd love to own a vintage modern... but i'll never sell that JMP.


Just curious, why do you have the cab on top of the head? doesn't that cause heat issues?


the cabs on top of the head, so its pointing at my ears ;) i think we all know from experience the difference that can make, espeically being in a small room with a 1x12.

its all on a modified TV/VCR stand. i don't have heat issues - but there is plenty of air circulating just above the head. the picture is a bit deceptive, but you can just make it out.

I wish it was my idea - but can't take credit - it was an old girlfriend's. We were walking past a head of rubbish and there was this knackered TV stand there. She said, why dont you put your Marshall on that.. I was like 'what?!' and then she explained it to me. I must admit she had genius inspiration that day. The stand has wheels and everything.

To be fair - I've seen them used for similar things
Someone I knew used one to make an inverted router table - kind of like a spindle molder for making pickguards and stuff - pretty clever

With all the big screen/flat TVs coming in there will be a load of these old style stands looking for good uses

Here's my Silver Jubilee with my Ear Candy extension cabinet.  Both have Celestion Sidewinder speakers.
So many pickups, so little time

Hi Jonathan,

I love the Sidewinders.  I got my first one back when they were still made and had it in a Roland Bolt 60 for years.  I picked the second one up on ebay, and it is mint!  I just got a 15" Sidewinder for a bass cab that Ear Candy is making for me.

I love the way that you can drive them and speaker distortion is never an issue, they let you get the sound that the amp is putting out, but with a nice amount of Celestion character to it.

I was recording with it one time and the engineer said that it was the best sounding Marshall he had heard!!

Both my Marshall 1912 (1x12") cabinets have them as does my Rivera 2x12"

I used to have a 200W Marshall bass amp with a 15" sidewinder in it and it was great - regret selling that one.
