Are Marshall Amps Available Again in the U.S., Or Is It Just Temporary?

I don't care where an amp is made, I care about how it is made and what goes in to it. Ceriatone's are a great balance of quality for the price. I have one of their amps with their own Malaysian sourced iron and it's pretty darn good. I
I never played one a them before yet. I heard they're supposed to be good. They gotta do something about that name though. Maybe it's a revered word in Asia or something, however in English it sounds goofy. Kind of like ceramics or something. Like something from the Pottery Barn.

Collins English Dictionary:
ceria - "a white-to-yellow, heavy powder, cerium dioxide, CeO2, usually derived from cerium nitrate by decomposition with heat: used chiefly in ceramics, glass polishing, and decolorizing"

Names don’t really matter imho. Make a good product long enough and you could have a gibberish name like Spotify or a meaningful name like Whole Foods and people will love it either way.

^^^Yep, true. Marshall seems to have made a good product long enough to establish its name in most of the music industry. Ceriatone? Not so much yet. I first heard about them a couple years ago on "The Gear Page", and more recently on this forum. People on those 2 forums have good things to say about Ceriatone, however I'm waiting for a wider acceptance before I try them.

Marshall on the other hand has developed a very good rep for 55+ years now. The only place I seen anything negative about them is on these types of forums, and maybe only on this forum specifically. I had a decades long positive experience with Marshall owning a half dozen of their amps between the 1980s and now.

Whats in a name ? Like Fucking everything.
Game changing History maker.
OBE = "By order of the British Empire".
Jim never sold to Jina or Vietnam but his kids sure did like before he was even in the ground.
Disgraceful.
It took Jim 80 yrs to build the company and his kids about 10 years to destroy it.

Pretty sure Ceriatone is pronounced “Cherry-a-tone”

Ceriatone has been around for a at least 15 years. I bought my first one in 2012 and they were already around for a few years. They're not a new company, they're a small company and sell at capacity. Not sure if there will be "wider" acceptance since they don't mass produce amps.
