A little late....

minerman · 08-18-2012, 02:02 PM

Hey guys, I've posted here a handful of times, but haven't introduced myself, so here goes.....

Just a "bedroom warrior" that used to gig quite a bit, but now I do the recording thing in my spare room & spare time.....I'm actually a "minerman" where I work (I've worked as an underground coal miner for over 22 years now, & operate a remote controlled continuous miner), so my username is actually what I am.......Here'a pic of me & the new continuous miner the company I work for bought, before we took it underground (sorry for the crappy quality, but the pic was taken with my cell phone after work one night)....

I don't own a Marshall now, but have had a couple in the past. I had a white 100w Jubilee head with 2 matching 4x12 cabs in the late 80's/early 90's, & owned a Valvestate head & cab in the late 90's.....

I actually stopped playing for about 7 years or so (& sold everything I had, including all my guitars, amps, effects.....everything), but got back into it about 4 years ago.

Glad I found this forum, as most of the other forums I'm a member of don't "get" what I'm looking for (info/help with my tone quest).....

I went the software route up until March of this year, & bought a Blackstar HT-5. I plan on buying another amp/cab/guitar or three

in the future too.....While the ampsims can sound convincing for the most part, I still find that a real amp/cab/mic setup sounds a lot better...

Here's a couple pics of the gear I'm using now (except the 1x12 cab, I don't have a pic of it yet....):

Again, glad I found this forum, as there's a wealth of info here, & everyone seems to be pretty nice!!!

Hang out long enough, and you'll own a Marshall pretty soon ... welcome

Nice set-up you have there

Somehow I think you'll have a Marshall before too long

Stay safe!

cheers,

Matt.

Welcome

minerman · 08-20-2012, 11:24 PM

Thanks everyone, I bought the little Marshall from my nephew, he'd been holding it for me for a couple months. I told him to sell it if he needed the $$$, but he kept it for me......

Another thing about my nephew, Josh, he gave my great-niece (his sister's teenage girl) a Gibson Chet Atkins SST yesterday too....gave, not sold....

Thanks again, love this forum!!!

Late, what's late? Marshall men arrive precisely when they're supposed to

minerman · 08-26-2012, 11:42 AM

Thanks to everyone, great forum, not like some of the other forums I'm a member of that I won't mention, where rudeness/trash talk/being assholes in general is the norm....glad to be here!!!!!!

And I tried to edit my original post, but couldn't figure out how to do it....

Here's my Marshall (for now), with my 1x12 Greenback cab.......

Thanks again to everyone for making this a great forum!!!!!

Hey minernman,

Glad you introduced yourself here.

I listened to some of your clips on soundclick.
That home recording hobby of yours is sounding pretty good.
