Valvestates Suck! I have proof.

[nightflameauto]

Greetings. Once upon a time a billion years ago, some of you knew me. Apologies.

I'll apologize to those that don't already know me later.

At any rate, observe:

Take one shitty cheapo Schecter C-4 something er other who the heck cares? Set it up for Drop C.
Plug in a Keeley SD-1
Then a Marshall original 8000 series Valvestate, in this case 8200.
Mesa Standard (OS) 4x12
A Roswell Cab Mic Pair


Then play some classic Anthrax riffage. Result?

I rest my case.

8200 with a boost is killer. Still slightly prefer the 8100 but they’re both amazing and under appreciated

I know you! Great seeing you here, NFA ! Clippage is, as always;

 

[FuzzyAce]

Nice clip. I had a 2x12 combo version.

 

[Rubber Clown Mask]

Always loved the Valvestates and Anthrax as well. Great sounding clip!

 

[BFRaid]

Love me some Valvestate

I know they sound amazing so I thought you made a spot to insert your penis in the amp and was scared you posted a video to prove it.

You haven't seen the back of the amp.

I know they sound amazing

I have a Schecter CR-6 that looks very similar to yours. I love that guitar! Very aggressive pickups. Toothpick neck.

 

[sleewell]

Good shit homie!!

 

[CorrosiveMatter]

Good? Ok? I think Ace would play one.

 

[maddnotez]

I want one of these or a 1600c/gx 130c

 

[FuzzyAce]

Good? Ok? I think Ace would play one.

I did play one.

Oh, you mean the famous Ace!

 

[CorrosiveMatter]

Oh, you mean the famous Ace!

Yea it's the right brand at least.

I have a 8008 valvestate 19"
Absolutely killer amp.
I prefer the ENGL 920 (duh) but the valvestate surprises me every time. It has balls when dialed in correctly (not above or just slightly above 12:00).

I had a VS100 1x12 I sold when I bought my JCM2000. I wish I had never sold it. It was the perfect grab-and-go amp. I miss it every time my back goes out moving the 900 cab.
