1968 Marshall 50w plexi Model 1987 "Salvation plexi" Brown Sound
This is my so called "Salvation plexi" as it used to belong to the local salvation army close by. This is one of my most frequently requested amps for studio recordings. I very famous guitarist has used it on his last two recordings (unfortunately I can´t name him here as he endorse another amp company. This clip is the guitar straight into upper channel one only, which get kind of brown. However this amp has more tones. Lower chanel one great for a more smother sound and with the lolume a bit rolled off, ACDC ones. The Channel two is darker and perfect for strats. The amp starts to break up earlyer then most, with humbuckers between 1-2. After 3-4 you don´t get an lolume increase only gain response.
The clip is done with a 1974 Les Paul Custom 20 anniversary into stock Marshall plexi, stock T-top pickups, no boost pedal or attenuator were used. The miced speaker cabinet was in a nearby closet. An old sure SM57 into iRig pre and iPhone 4 was used for recording. No post sound editing. Sync is screwed since sound was recorded with one phone and video with another...
The amp is a Lead Model 1987 not the Bass model 1986 as I wrote somewhere here by mistake.The amp is an all original Scandinavian S-marked amp.
