Best guitar with a Marshall

[KKM1]

I just got a 1974x Marshall which i think is a great example of pure Marshall tone. What guitar do you think compliments it the best? So far the Les Paul sounded the best to my ears. It was Les Paul Studio. On a side note, do u think the higher priced Les Pauls will sound much sweeter than the studio model?

Not to be a negative guy or anything but that is the gayist poll I've read that wasn't a joke.

What about "Whats the best color seat cover to put in my new Toyota?"

Ok, I thought I should add a little...


Its all personnel preferance man, just test drive and settle on what YOUR wanting to hear. Me? I'm not the biggest fan of a Les Paul because IMO its not as versatile as some of the competition. But thats must me...

Again, all personnel preference.

No not a crime, but your not going to get anything useful except 10 out of 100 ppl agreeing with you on your Les Paul and that making you feel better about the purchase.

i love the sound of both a strat and an LP. i've got an 89 strat with lace sensors, and a les paul studio as well, they both sound great through any marshall.

[DogFood]

Gold Top...all the way.

[GOODLAND]

Les Paul all the way!!!!! My friend has this setup and it sounds so freakin good!!

I say a pee-wee Vee. Tuned to C flat.

I think it is definitly the SG or the Les paul. THey are almost the same guitar, except the pickups are a LITTLE different. But other than that , they are electronically the same. I plya SG's all the time on marshall amps, and they sound B-E-A-UTIFUL.

Nothin' beats the Les Paul/Marshall combo.

im with him


you gotta tell us what sound your shooting for then maybe we will be able to tell you what guitar you should use to accompany that marshall

[faderbug]

one of the greatest tones in rock was achieved with a strat through a marshall. yes, it's jimi i'm talking about.

I play my mid 70's Takamine F312 through a Marshall AS100D acoustic amp I just got. I know acoustics don't count but it is a kickass guitar/Marshall amp combination.

Les Paul, hands down.


Why can't people figure out that polls are for peoples opinions. It's not a Presidential election.

Well your obviously responding to my

but that is the gayist poll I've read that wasn't a joke

statement. Looking back I guess I could have worded it a little better and not been an ahole about it, that wasn't my intention I guess I had a little too much to drink that night.

But my point is illustrated nicely in this poll
Just that its completely preference. Just about ANYTHING is going to sound superb through that 1974x Marshall. But let me know if you don't find anything, cuz I'd be more than happy to take that amp off your hands!!

Please check pm.

thanks for voting. i ended up buying a new heritage cherry sunburst gibson LP Standard. for hard/classic rock it really is a super sweet combo. i dont use any pedals either. just pure tone!

now i need to make some money to pay off some credit cards lol

For rhythm or leads?

That Strat through your amp should cut right through a mix on lead and sound awesome. Well, I guess awesome is pretty subjective.

[zrockisaddictin]

[Dani Pace]

None of them, I just don't like Marshall amps.
