indeed.


that's a steep price for an amp that, if you could even afford it, you'd probably not ever use.

and good luck getting Kurt's tone just because that might have been his amp.

Why would you want someone else's sound?

hrmmmmm, looks like a fake to me. Kurt used to use rack mounted boogie pre's and solid state crown power amps to get his sound + a shit load of pedals. I seriously doubt he'd use a Marshall, very much a different sound. Although I've got the track on CD somewhere and give it a listen to see if i can snout out that Marshall crunch.

It is...he posted a photo of the settings, and if you zoom in you'll see:

It's a Marshall JMP series combo amp (Most likely a 50watt MK2 Lead such as the 2104)

Settings:

- Presence: 7
- Bass: 9.5
- Middle: 2.5
- Trebel: 7
- Master: 2
- Pre-Amp: 9.5-10

The amp will cost ~$500-1000 used.

Unless you used the same guitar, strings, etc... it won't be the same.

Don't you love it when people who know nothing about guitar amps try to shove you around? :dork:

that is probably what he used in concert.....this is claimed as what he used to record his last song, probably a few others too
