New lemmy Sig From Marshall

[HOOLIGAN]

Whats up w/ the cabs they show with the head?
Are those 12"s & 15"s?
If the his Sig head is anything like his Sig bass and increases
in value x10 in 10 years, I'm in-

 

[Darkstrike]

His setup is a 4x12 and a 4x15.
So thats what it should be.

Lemmy's new 100 watt head looks interesting-but even more interesting to me is the Marshall MB450H...From the research I did on the head-its 300 Watts @ 4 ohms(using 1 cab) and 450 watts @ 2 ohms(2 cabs). I did a price check on the head only and in dollars it was about 600.00 US. Marshall cabs are usually cheaper(ie, the 1x15 bass cab was 300.00 US). Marshall heads are fun-I'd love to try one of these out with a matching Marshall 412 cab and a 125 cab.... or use it with my Schroeder 410R and 212L Cabs...cooool idea...Peace...DAcat

What?

On the Marshall website, it says 100 watts.

but if it was a $600 all-tube head that could do 450 watts @ 2 ohms...

Cool, if thats true, this thing is incredible.

It's not.

you can look at the back of the amp on the website, not only does it say 100 watts, but it only goes down to 4 ohms.

I see he changed it, twas a different head.

 

[Darkstrike]

Actually the MB450 looks pretty good too.

 

[Skullie]

Sounds like a head that might be kick-@$s for guitarists too. I'm dying to try one of these out.

I often play thru an old 100w SUPERBASS marshall bass head & it sounds GREAT!!! VEry similar to LEM Sig. 4 x EL34's Does get MY-T loud especially thru my NV610!!! This ones acyually for sale in a local 2nd hand store. BUT I don't need another tube amp!! Damnit!

 

[washburnfan]

All I can say is his sound is NASTY!! I love it... Last time I saw him in a small club (<1000) he played 2 or 3 stacks... ( they were back to a 3-piece at that time )... And all the sound was coming from the stage... I think it was the Dio tour... Amazing!!

I have a friend who plays through a 1973 Super Bass into an old Marshall 4x15 slant (he also has the 4x15 straight cab too) and it is ridiculously loud. 100 watts tube is much louder than you think and Motorhead is always a loud show. One of my very favorite bands. I'd be into checking this out for real.

I just told my buddy about this thread and his reply was:
"100 watts not loud! Stand in front of a 4x15 stack on 5. I dare anyone! "

Try front row at a Motorhead gig in a venue without PA's set up for them, loud? 100w smashing your face like a hammer!

Was listening to their new album today, his tone is to die for!

...this head is a Hybrid head, with 1 preamp tube only,but is said to have great "Marshall tone" with huge wattage for a marshall bass amp ...I'd love to try one out...Peace...DAcat

Or even more fun would be the the all-tube Marshall VB400"Designed with the serious bass player in mind and drawing from our many years of valve, 'tone crafting' experience, the VBA400 boasts a staggering 8x 6550 power valves, plus 3x ECC83 and 1x ECC82 preamp valves..

Is that the head that is black with white lettering? A little more "modern" looking than regular Marshall's? If it is then I saw one in a store a couple of weeks ago and they look sharp! They have 410 and 115 cabinets available in the same color scheme.

 

[watspan]

I didn't even know Marshall made bass amps let alone anybody played one!

Any updates on availability or pricing yet?
