Have you actually played through one?
I mean the stacks that are the same as Marshalls?

Same price as a Marshall but has a complete effects rack and every other amp voice made in there.

You can like what you want, I owned 2 Marshall stacks in my life 2 Carvin Stacks and a Crate Blue Voodoo.

When you get to be my age you can pretty much buy what you want and I bought this.

I first heard a kid not much older than you playing it at a venue and was blown away.
Then I went and test drove it.
Threw down 3 grand on the spot and never not once regretted it.
This amp is Bogner Tube and Line 6 Processing
But if you don't like them you don't like them. ;)

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Guitar-Fender-Stratocaster-case-/111209355658?pt=AU_Musical_Instruments_Instruments&hash=item19e498198a&_uhb=1 I found this strat on Ebay, and I've been looking for a cheap Strat for a while now, and is this one a fake? :S I don't know if I should buy it or not? Post here to let me know :D


That's a fair price mate, what you'd expect from a H1 strat. As long as it's in good nick.

Let us know how you go.. :)

Donny, you ever play through those old Johnson Millenium/Marquis amps?? Those things nailed amp modeling while Line 6 was still doing their early digital emulation stuff. I just picked up a Johnson Marquis JM60 for a stupid low price and I couldn't be happier with it. These Johnson amps were made in good ol' America as well ;) They are hybrid tube/solid state amps but they sound amazing.

Be nice, Nathan. :idea: There's a huge vocabulary out there to use to express yourself. Remember, one man's s--t is another's shoe polish. At the end of the day, it's all about how you get the leather to shine, isn't it. :wink:

There's that time worn phrase...'don't know s--t from Shinola', but I have to assume that most people know Jack' but don't know Shinola, so shoe polish will have to serve. :lol: :lol: :wink:

Yah...you could learn never again to swap out a '61 Fender Concert Amp for a Line 6 AxSys. They never kept their promise on upgrading the software beyond the Ax2.[ Instead, they created the Flextone series.] Not withstanding their popularity among some, they have no 'used' gear value. Dealers won't take them in trade. I left mine up north, gifted to a friend who is still gigging and was glad to have another one, particularly in the condition mine was in. I would rather have been able to sell my Fender for its value on the vintage market.

Mine is tube by Bogner.
But yes the resale value of my old JCM 800 stack was twice as much for sure.
And sometimes I miss the simplicity.
I really only use a Marshall dirty and clean sound along with Noise Gate.
On solos I will use a chorus and delay.
So most of the Line 6 features go to waste on me.
