Is this your prayer to get rid of the woman who complained about you playing during the day a few months ago?
Marshall is dead, isn’t it?

I would bet money that website is already taken, but I'm not doing the Google search on it with my work computer
Nope it's free.

Seriously though, If I were to get someone from the UK to pick up a used Marshall amp for me and ship it to me or bring it over the next time they visit, what would be the shipping costs and I assume duties will need to be paid. With the prices in the UK and the current exchange rate, it should still be worth it to ship it and pay the taxes.
Anyone have a clue?

I'd put a rough estimate in the $300 range (+ or - $50)---with that including
enough insurance to cover any loss or damage.

FWIW, they are shipping E. Asian made stuff, i.e. Origin, DSL, and MG stuff. However, nothing British has showed up, except oddly another friend's shop DID get the JCM900 Studio.

They ought to be. He made a better Marshall than they do.

It depends. For a modern Marshall style tone, with a good master volume, great loop etc...sure. But my '77 Super Lead has a rawness and punch that none of the Friedmans I had could touch.
I like the amps, don't get me wrong. But they're their own thing/different animal.

That’s why I’m a bigger fan of George’s stuff. His stuff still keeps the rawness and the raspiness. Dave makes amazing amps, don’t get me wrong. But I haven’t played a Friedman that’s made me want to off my Metroplex.

He made a different Marshall. I wouldn’t say a better one.

Can't argue with that. Metro amps are amazing.

At $2600 I’m buying a Friedman. The $1900 JVM was a bargain I was willing to pursue.
