That would have been my question. Eying on these for a while. Isn't it called "fuzz" on the label? That made me curious. So good to know i can pass on this :)


Nah, mine is "harmonics" but there is a different type with fuzz...and also I think a guitar head with "saturation" and that one is supposedly sweet... :idk:

Skullservant, those are cool, man. Do the mods make it way different to use or are they more subtle?

They make the amp a little more versatile. I added a master volume to the amp so that if I want some saturation at a low level I can have it. I also did the JP1 mod, which is just disconnecting a jumper, but it allows for a little more headroom. I added a jack for the JP1 mod too, because when connected it acts like a volume boost or lead channel.

Only other thing I did to the color one was put a new output transformer on it and a standby switch (standby is totally unnecessary, but I find myself wanting to change the order of my pedals without turning the amp off so it comes in handy)

SCORE! That's awesome. I just got a few new (to me) cabs myself. Pretty stoked.

Actually, I take that back. It does sound pretty weak when you're plugged into the drive channel and using the distortion, but if you bridge the two and plug yer bass into the clean channel... :omg:
Maybe it IS a mediocre sound and I just dig it unknowingly. Maybe it's like I'm enjoying a DS-1 or something, I dunno.
Either way BRIDGING IS AWSUM

do you play this gear at your bedroom? :omg:


Gets played a lot in my bedroom, yes. I do take it out to friends houses to get loud, though. Trying to get a couple bands going soon.

That's quite a bedroom rig. You should definitely play that out as much as you can. That'd be sweet.

I've always dreamed of owning a Vintage SuperBass. This is probably as close as I'll ever come.
She's my first Marshall... I plan on treating her really sweet for a long long time.

the only time my neighbors have ever called and told me to shut the fuck up is when i was still playing through a Crate FXT120 (years ago). havent gotten a complaint since then. must be the upgrade in tone :lol: ;)

the 25/100 switch also comes in handy.
