PETA make me angry. Incredibly angry. So do vegan's who are fucking morons.

A workmate of mine's neighbours were vegan, and they had a baby. But, because they were vegan (and fucking idiots as well) they didn't breast feed the kid or give it any proper kind of milk/baby mixture stuff.

You know what they fed it?

Soy milk.

I shit you not. Fucking soy milk. The baby died about a month later of malnutrition.

/OT rant.

On topic, i'm also somewhat against Marshall... I'd buy one again, i'm past the point of not even considering them, but I hate that they're the only thing anyone outside of the music world recognises but really, their quality is :noway:

:lol: I used to feel that way about them

For me it used to be worse, after my god-awful experience with the MG100DFX, i swore tehy were created by the devil to bring death and destruction upon the masses...

I'd consider a TSL or a Mode four now (yes, i am aware of the M4's reputation, i happen to like buzzy, chainsaw sounding rhythms)

The thing is you really can't judge Marshalls by the MG series :lol: I don't love them either, and they seem to be very hit and miss (ie some amps are great, others are not, even in the same line of amp) but the MG series is just utter shit :barf:

I really want a JCM800/900 lately, and I'm not quite sure why. They're awesome amps and I'm normally against 2 channels but they're so god damn nice. Not to mention they look killer in white.

I think my issue with Marshall is that sure, they sound nice, but the sound i like so much more is the hot-rodded marshall tone... which Marshall themselves simply don't do :lol: Give me an Uberschall any day :evil:

I dislike equipment based on the color of its skin and wouldn't buy it based on religion. LOL jk jk! Just Gibson cause that hard earned money just bought you a over priced piece of furniture and a title that says " I've got money to blow" Sorry for all you Gibson fans out there. I am sure there are some good builds just my experience is bad.

I've tried a couple of Epiphones i really enjoyed playing, although they are fucking heavy :eek: Never tried a Gibson i've liked though (weird, huh :lol: Might be a mental thing), and their horrific pricing really turns me off. So far as i'm concerned, the only (real) reason to respect Gibson these days is the fact that they use their own pickups, which is kinda cool.

I can't stand new models/brands that looks just like something else that already exists with just some small changes.
"Here is our new stratocaster model with green pickguard instead of the original white, now pay us 2500 dollars extra for this guitar because it has a different color" *puke*, I don't care if it's the best guitar in the world, I won't go near it.

I hate the solid state marshalls cause its like LOOK IM COOL ITS A MARSHALL =D die.

I dunno what to tell you. The JCM 900 I used to own was completely useless unless I wanted to play some weak classic rock, so I sold it. My AVT150H on the other hand, can make just about any sound I ask it to make. :yesway:

I think tube heads are great when you're the kind of player who uses one specific sound 90 some odd percent of the time. If you're like me, and playing entirely different styles of music every 10 minutes, solid state is the way to go.

So you admit, you live by the ball sack of Steve Jobs...Outstanding!!! :fawk:

I selected the quote carefully, I did not include the other insane imaginations of the sexually deprived who also still believe XP is the best OS ever made or lack the intelligence to be able to work out that the cheapest product to purchase does not mean the least expensive to own. But whatever, you keep pumping your ego and tell yourself that you are so much better then people who love their Macs and keep making yourself happy by thinking about gay porn. :cond:
