This episode dives into the legendary world of Marshall amps, the backbone of rock and roll. The journey begins in 1960s London with drummer and music shop owner Jim Marshall, who, after chatting with guitar gods like Pete Townshend, Ritchie Blackmore, and Eric Clapton, created the first Marshall amp to meet their demands for something louder and crunchier. The iconic JTM 45 was born, leading to the invention of the Marshall stack, a towering symbol of power on stage. From Jimi Hendrix to Metallica, these amps have powered the sounds of rock legends. Still evolving today, Marshall amps blend classic tone with modern innovations, staying true to their rebellious spirit. Whether you're a musician or fan, there's no denying—Marshall amps are the loud, proud heart of rock and roll.
