Feedback requested

[blinder]

errr... um yeah... Feedback, get it?

Okay, bad joke. Anyway, I just want to get some feedback regarding completing my guitar rig.

Right now I'm playing through a Vox ToneLab, which I really enjoy -- nice sounds, and with tweaking, some very nice overdriven sounds (like using the rectifier model, backing off the gain)... anyway, I do, however want to have one area of my guitar tone arsenal that isn't dependent on modeling.

So, here's what I"m thinkin... and this is where you come into it.

I'm wanting to find myself a nice vintage Marshall JCM800 head, but seeing as though I live in a townhouse, and wish to stay living here, a cabinet is out of the question... so I'm looking at the Palmer Speaker Simulator

So, I'd like to hear from folks who have similar configurations -- and well, does this sound feasable?

My desire is to have that vintage Marshall amp sound for real.

I recorded this with a Mesa-boogie V-twin preamp direct into the board, doesn't have the sweet feedback of the JCM800 and cab miked but it is sufficient and won't disturb the neighbors:

I used a home brew version of a box like this years ago to record in a closed area from a Fender amp. Worked well then, with zero sound outside the head phones.
