    Slash's first signature amp came from most of his original Jubilees being ripped to shreds at the infamous St. Louis riot back in 91. Slash went to Jim Marshall about having some more Jubilees made because he said if anything happened to the amps he had left, he would be "totally screwed." Jim told him that they could, but it would (apparently) be more cost effective to release the amp as a signature model instead.
    Also Slash didn't get his Derrig LP in the mid 90s, it was in 1986 just before the recording of Appetite as his guitars he had at the time "sounded like shit" in the studio. Alan Niven (GN'R's manager at the time) got it from a guy called Jim Foote who worked at Music Works in Redondo Beach (he's still there by the way). Yes I know I need to get out more! 🤣

    Amp is correct. The delay pedal is what he uses now, but for the original welcome to the jungle effect a roland srv 2000 was used. For whatever reason that rack unit is the only one that gets the timing identical to the actual recording.

      I checked out the MXR 10 bands eq, but ended getting better results with a Friedman buxom in front of the amp, amazing pedal!!! By the way, watch the presence control, this amp has plenty of it from the beginning. I find it sounds more pleasant to my ears with the control around 2-3. As everybody says the eq section is very sensitive, just a increase/decrease of one point makes the difference.

    • @jjruizsoriano
      @jjruizsoriano Před rokem

      Quick update after a year. The buxom was good, then I tried the golden pearl and it was even better, but too much high mids and trebles. Finally I got a MXR Timmy, and the amp sounds terrific!! for the first time I have the impression it sounds just right!! I can understand the hype about this pedal for pushing Marshall amps.

    the guild double neck was used on Anastasia by Myles Kennedy and the Conspiritors from time to time
    the EDS-1275 was for Knocking on Heaven's Door, hope this clears it up for ya!
