Both the Marshalls have greenbacks - the angled front was made sometime in the last several years, it belongs to my singer who also plays guitar in SH.
The straight front Marshall is a beat to sh.it affair from the 80s.
As for the Soldano - I actually don't have a clue what speakers are in it. I got it off of Craigslist at a steal of a price, and it has served me well from day one - so I figure it's best not to fu¢k with a good thang.
Our record is almost finished - my singer is just hammering out his vocals and then we'll send it out to be mixed. I'll see if I can find some demo tracks to show the Splawn/Soldano combination...
Interestingly enough, when we went into the studio to check it out and hang with our engineers, I was trying to describe Splawn to our main operator. I told him it was like a Marshall on steroids, with the most articulate, even "clean" distortion sound. He was noticably nervous about tracking with it. Afterwards, he made mention to someone else that there were only two kinds of amps he would want to use in the future - old Fenders... and SPLAWNS.
I'm proud to say the 95% of the tracks on our record will have been cut with Splawn amplification. We also used an old Fender Princeton from the 60s and an Orange AD30 Twin Channel.
Hey definitely post that when its done!
If you go to my link for my band's myspace you can hear almost that exact amp combonation on the song "Ichabod the Idiot"
I used a late 60's Fender Deluxe Reverb, an Orange AD-30 combo and my Splawn Pro Mod for that song. You'll probably be able to pick out which one is which.
