Ive always contemplated my ultimate setup and came to the conclusion that all I want is a great clean and distorted sound out of an amp(and some reverb).No 'super gear' or anything in between.. mabey a little chorus,but thats it.
It seems marshalls get great tone right out of the box rather than having to throw effects and an eq in front of it to get a good sound.
My friend has a mesa triple rec and has a load of stuff before it to get the sound he wants.
Ive always procrastinated over price,but after I get a new guitar,its marshall city... no more screwing around!!!
Try once,fail twice...
