What is your Gibson to Marshall Ratio
Like Peanut Butter and Jelly in the pantry (or vegemite, you sick aussies!) most here have Gibsons to go with their Marshalls. The question then is what is your ratio of Gibson axes to Marshall amps? I am currently at a 1:1 ratio (8 each including a bass on each side). What is your ratio?

Re: What is your Gibson to Marshall Ratio
Gibson : Marshall

Mine would be 1:2

The 1: 2011 Gibson Les Paul Custom
The 2: 2007 Marshall JVM410H + 1960A Lead
--------1985 Marshall Lead 12 3005 Microstack

Now, I do have a 2nd "Les Paul" type guitar that I play with, the Hagstrom Ultra-Swede, but since it's not an actual Gibson branded guitar, I'm guessing that it doesn't count for the purposes of this thread.

Re: What is your Gibson to Marshall Ratio
No Gibby's for me either, so my ratio is 0:5

I've only ever played one I thought was worthy of my money & on that day & bought a Charvel instead

Re: What is your Gibson to Marshall Ratio
1:2:3

3 Gibsons (1x Flying V, 1x Explorer, 1x Blackbird)
6 Marshall amps (3x Super Bass, 2x VBA400, 1x 1986)
9 Marshall cabinets (4x 1982B, 1x 1984B, 1x 1960B, 1x1551, 1x 1552, 1x 1520)

I also have a Marshall 5010 SS 30W combo amp, but that would **** up the ratio, so I didn't count it, hahaha!!!

Cheers!
