A sad day for loud guitarists
http://www.jimmarshall.co.uk/

I met him once and he was very nice.

Oh that’s sad.

Will have to turn it up later on dad’s as a mark of respect. 😈

So long Jim and thanks for all the hearing loss.

“RIP”

Singularly inappropriate….?

alhtough agree with the sentiment 😉

RIP. Legend. Remembered whenever I leave a Sleigh Bells gig with my ears bleeding.

Ironically, he was going quite deaf when I met him. He insisted it was just old age and not years of standing next to giant stacks of speakers. There really isn’t anything more ‘rock’ than a full Marshall stack…

RIP Jim.

Mind you, he’s probably enjoying the quiet.
I hope they get a 12 year old to play a terrible version of Stairway at the memorial.

“RIP”

Singularly inappropriate….?

Rock in peace.

RIP Jim,

Being an MK lad I done bits of electrical work in Marshalls. I used to work with a guy who worked there for over 20 years….his job was amp testing i.e. playing guitar all day long. He actually got bored in the end and left for something different….can you believe that!!

Any excuse to post this

Was always a Fender amp man personally but Marshalls do rock

Very sad. A top man and very nice too. Had time for everyone.

Shame – I used to see him at the 80s guitar shows signing posters n such

never wanted to speak to him as I don’t realy like marshall but he seemed a chipper old guy

I now have the 1 watt marshall limited edition just out – it is the quintisential RAWK!!!!! amp – so Jim thnaks for that

As a teenager all I ever wanted was a Marshall amp.

RIP, unlike my neighbours 🙂 and thank you for so much pleasure…

🙁

JTM 45 for the win. Passing of a legend.

Turn it right up and enjoy.

I went to a sleigh Bells gig at the O2 in bristol, OMG, I was deaf for days after!!

“that” noise when you plug the jack in….makes me smile everytime

Guitar amp innovator Jim Marshall – dubbed “the Father of Loud”

Love it.
