it would be hard to find anyone who plays music for a living that has never used a marshall at some point.

Ha, so true. But just to name 3 of my favourites: EVH, Jake E Lee and Hendrix.

I'd like to add Tommy Bolin but he only used Marshalls for a very short time.

Definitely my favorite, though Jimmy Hendrix is at the top of my list as well. I like the rawness of the music they produced. No elegance, nothing. Just pure music and pure talent.

Re: Some of my favorite Marshall Players

Hendrix, Clapton with the bluesbreakers and cream, gary moore, lenny kravitz and craig ross use them in the studio i believe, Paul Kossoff, Joe bonamassa, I believe Peter Green used them with the bluesbreakers too so ill add him in there for good measure lol
but I'm sure there are more that have used Marshall's but i am unaware...
It's just taste really, a lot of people like to chop and change their gear so it's difficult to know sometimes...

Yes Paul Kossoff is associated with Marshall but is also associated with Orange amps as is Peter Green

Re: Some of my favorite Marshall Players

Daron Malakian is a guitarist I sort of don't like, and nor do I like his voice. I wish he would've made some more interesting stuff for SOAD. His and Serj's lyrics were great. I never knew he used Jacksons and Marshalls? I always thought he used Mesas and Ibanez/SG guitars (barytones especially). I wonder what he uses right now with Scars On Broadway.

Just read that Daron likes to use lots of different amps. Haha!

Re: Some of my favorite Marshall Players

Blackmore in Osaka and Tokyo Aug 1972. It doesn't get any better than that.
No overdubs. What you hear is what you get. Raw and a tone to die for.
Jimi..... Band of Gypsies. Machine Gun. Who Knows?
Clapton.... Cream Live Vol 1
Van Halen... 1st
Wow.. I'm gonna listen to some of those right now. Just thinking about them I get cold chills. Awesome rock'n'roll.
