Example Sentences

"The Tube King gives me a really good Marshally crunch, or a sweeter lead tone if I use the neck humbucker in my guitar."
"The tone and tremolo controls and the inputs make a lot more sense on the AC-15 than on the AC-30. The AC-15 also has reverb which the AC-30 does not. On the AC-30 you can cascade the inputs and get a very Marshally sound at higher volumes."
"The "Love" channel has a Fender and old Boogie vibe to it. The "Lust" channel has a more Marshally tone to it. It is an extremely loud amp, but it is not a high gain amp."
