Most certainly, yes. Marshall came out of the gate creating awesome products, there's no denying that. Those older designs are classics and sound great to our ears, but we're becoming dinosaurs.

There will undoubtedly be new designs for future generations of rock musicians who value tonal qualities that we old fogies don't value. From the perspective of a kid today who may not be buying his first Marshall for another 10-20 years, their best designs may still be ahead of them.
