I guess thunders now will become very loud with a nice warm overdrive. Crank it up for the man, guys.

R.I.P. Jim, you've sure done great things to music as we know it.

R.I.P.
Countless musicians would never have succeeded and even more countless classic and modern tunes would never have been created were it not for you.

Back in the days of Winterland in S.F., I always marveled at the bank of Marshalls the guitar played had behind him. Don't know for sure, but it always seemed like there were at least five double-stacks, with a Marshall head on top of every one, with tubes and power lights gleaming in the semi-darkness. One of the reasons I saw Ronnie Montrose who just recently passed away) every time he played there...

Marshall/Fender... without them, who knows if modern electric amps and Rock would be quite the same.... RIP Jim... :cry:
