Can I ask a stupid question?
I know this is a rehtorical question, and it's a waste of time for a thread.
But....why is it that everybody and their dog that owns a Marshall AFD 100 that posts a video on youtube HAS to play a song by G&R or Slash. Really? |

Because it's a Slash amplifier?

Re: Can I ask a stupid question?
They are trying to show how much the amp doesn't sound like slash apparently.

Re: Can I ask a stupid question?
I don't know how to play one slash song. I do think for just buying an amp head and plugging straight into... the amp rocks. I a/b'd that head against a Mesa MKV.. While I thought the Mesa sounded just fine, and is a very usable amp. The AFD was warm and smooth, easy to play on with just the right tones. I'm saying this cause I like the amp. Could care less about Slush.
In fact I think the kick ass thing to do, would be to give Alex Lifeson a couple of AFD heads, and let them do a remake of 2112. I don't know why ,.. Alex guitar sounds were titts on that album. I also think I'd like to hear Allen Holsdworth cranked full bore through one of the AFD heads. Full on concert though with the full band. Last edited by gdh1532; 07-04-2012 at 09:41 AM. |

Re: Can I ask a stupid question?
Wow......Dirty Looks......You must be from my general area as I don't hear too many other people mention them anymore...........A very straight-forward underestimated rock band (IMHO).........Good to hear them mentioned every now and then.....

Re: Can I ask a stupid question?
Usually when people search a signature amp it's more likely to here a song from that artist.
