I love chatting to Paul!! Whether it’s on camera or not it’s always an unpredictable ride. You should have heard what we talked about at dinner 😂😂. I wish the industry had more people like him - passionate, out spoken, a bit mad, but definitely not boring or corporate. And by the way - all those “You’ve won something!” replies that are being posted in this comments section are a SCAM!! Just report/delete them please.

Really nice interview and chat Paul is a good guy ! In reference to where the Marshall JTM45 came from it was a direct descendant of a Fender. The JTM45 was, undeniably, heavily based on Leo Fender's 5F6-A Bassman it's history with the exception of substituting EL34s in place of American 6L6s and of course a different power transformer for UK 🇬🇧 power. As far a clean the Fender has a bigger bottom end because of its 6L6 power tubes and a different tube capacitance and frequency response. The EL34 has more of a mid hump nasal sound with a smaller bottom .

I have a PRS story from 1972 before he was PRS. He was in college at St Marys in southern MD as a freshman and heard us play in the student union basement with our 100 watt Marshall Plexiglas with 8x12 I was playing an all original 55 Strat with an echoplex and a Univox super fuzz set on a slight boost. My Marshall had the jumper to get bottom from the 2nd channel. I only had my bottom cab plugged in and facing the painted cinderblock wall. We had a short conversation on the break where I got an ultimate tone complement from him. I was 17 and he was either 17 or 18. Our next gig was in Ocean City MD. We opened for Liz Meyer with Danny Gatton who approached me and announced that his Tele thru a 4x10 tweed batsman was going to be louder than my 100 watt stack. Danny already had a reputation so I didn't argue. 50 years ago and I can't make this stuff up. I also have a Roy Buchanan story from Pittsburgh 1975-6

Talking about “real” vs digital. It’s easy to say as someone who’s managed to find financial success, to just go with “real” stuff. But to try and get close to the tones you would chase as a normal person with a day job completely in-related to guitar, and to have enough time to commit to guitar when you have 2 or 3 other passing interests, it just makes sense. Just like any hobby, truly passionate people with more dedication will play the “you’re not a real (whatever)” and try to make themselves more important, and put themselves in a different class.

I don't mean that as an insult, they managed to engineer out stuff that wasn't good about the amps while keeping theiry character. Channel one is a JMT45, and channel two gets you a JCM800. If I ever needed an a full sized amp to play live again, I'd run through the 44. Victory made the best of everything people love from Marshalls. I don't know why they aren't more popular.
