We love Marshall stacks

 

I love Fender amps Grace, don't get me wrong.  I used to have a Super 60, which I liked very much.  But indoors or outdoors, nothing can match the power of a Marshall stack.  Sure we have modern amp stacks too, but none of them can match the image of a Marshall stack.  One look at a Marshall stack, and even the most spaced out dude will think "Rock Star".  And again, it matches your hair.

I have a vision of you Grace, setting up on stage at some festival.  You're standing in front of your Marshall stack, trying to get the right vibe.  You know, when the speakers start to break up and the whole rig starts to shake.  In fact, the whole stage and the towers vibrate.  The sound guy comes up to you and says, "You have to turn down."  You reply, "This is as low as it gets.  I am an artist, and I must express myself."  The sound check continues, and the sound of the guitar bounces off the bleachers.  The sound guy comes back and says, "You really have to turn that Marshall down!"  And you scream, "HOW DARE YOU TELL ME TO TURN DOWN!!!  YOU'RE NOT MY MOTHER!!!"  Then you start throwing shit around and kicking and swearing.  You know, like a REAL rock star.  So they let you have your way and when the festival begins, the sound of your guitar is bouncing off the mountains.

I'm sure you're too ladylike to behave in such a way, even though you should.  But get a Marshall stack anyway, Honey.  And oh yes, watch out for your ears.
