That Sixties Music - The Drummer That Defined “LOUD”

[@eddietucker3334]

I can't play guitar. Never held a drumstick. Can't sing a lick. And yet I can't get enough of The Guitar Trooper's vids. Thank you!

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Thank you SO MUCH, Eddie, for the kind words!

[@FawleyJude]

One of Marshall's drum students was Mitch Mitchell, who became Hendrix's drummer. That's how Hendrix discovered Marshall amps, Mitch told him about them and they went to pay former teacher Marshall a visit to look into them.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Absolutely so! GREAT POST! And THANKS for the view! AND…If you haven’t subscribed yet, please consider it. It really helps the channel a lot!

Thank you for the rock history lesson!

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Thank YOU, as always!!

[@RubyBandUSA]

I was waiting for you to invoke the Paul Harvey punch line ... "and now you know the REST of the story". Very nicely done! Keep 'em coming!!

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Thank YOU for the view and nice comments! Please do me a huge favor and share the video with your friends!!!

[@tpatrick44]

What a Wonderful Story! I had no idea! I really enjoy your channel! Your information, style, and delivery are excellent! 🎶

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Glad you enjoyed it! And THANKS A MILLION for your support! Consider joining the channel and becoming a Trooper Fellow!

[@lilajagears8317]

The band cream sure put the Marshall amps to use !

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Yeah! They used them in all of their concerts as far as I know. And Hendrix used them, after trying a few other amps. Jim said that Hendrix was the best brand ambassador that Marshall had! It’s estimated that Jimi owned somewhere around 100 of the stacks.

[@mikeywid4954]

Thank you to The_Guitar_Trooper for your musical trivia. I just today discovered your channel and do look forward to many more entries. Keep up the great work.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Welcome aboard, Mikey! And Thank You for the view and support!!

Great story of Jim Marshall! I always wanted a full or half stack, but at my age, it’s not so much the price but the weight that determines my amps of choice. Thanks for sharing.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Hi Larry! The first time I ever saw one was at a gig that I went to at the age of 16. The sheer majesty of the stack was enough to sell the idea to me! I never owned one either, and that’s probably a good thing, because my hearing would undoubtedly be worse now if it had happened. LOL

[@DavidAndrewsPEC]

Wow ... plot twist much?! Took me ages to twig who it was that you were talking about. Thank you so much for highlighting one of the two major forces in British instrument amplification. Although I'm more of a Vox man myself, I'm a sucker for a lovely Fender Princeton. Again, sir, great video. :)

[@the_guitar_trooper]

I’d take any of them - Vox, AC 30, a Marshall Plexi, or Fender Princeton! And thank you from the bottom of my heart for the view! If you haven’t yet considered it, please do consider subscribing, and even becoming a Trooper Fellow member !

[@DavidAndrewsPEC]

@@the_guitar_trooper I subbed on the first video. :) I have a Princeton 65DSP needing new PSU diodes for the bridge rectifier. I bought a Line 6 that has vague 'feels' of amplifiers ... but the most recent one I got was a Harley Benton HB20-R ... it has tube emulation in it. I have to admit that I wasn't expecting much from it. What I learned: never judge an amplifier by its price tag.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

@@DavidAndrewsPEC Welcome aboard, David! Harley Benton is an enigma for me. I haven’t ever laid a hand on any of their products, but I hear good things about the guitars all the time, and sometimes even without the obligatory tag line “for the price”. I have a Boss Katana that has taught me that I can waste an obscene amount of time screwing around with tonal mod software! Fender Princeton is hard to beat though.

[@DavidAndrewsPEC]

@@the_guitar_trooper Thank you. :) Yeh ... HB is weird, indeed ... David Knopfler was sent a very nice Tele replica by them. He was expecting to be slagging it off but ... he was very happy with it. Same with me and this HB20-R ... very nice amplifier. Princeton ... yes, very hard to beat. I still want to fix that PSU in mine.

[@happyolddude]

It took me a while but then I guessed it. Thank you so much for what you do as I really do enjoy your videos and also learn a lot.

[@grahampaulkendrick7845]

An excellent video about a legend. In the UK we'd have called his store a shop, tho'. Well done, Mr.Mashall.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Thanks for watching, Graham! And roger your comment regarding “shop”, too. I have a challenge with international nomenclature!

[@grahampaulkendrick7845]

@@the_guitar_trooper Yes, it is tricky. It's the height of fame for one's name to become part of the English language as in: the Marshall stack.

[@Music_is_Breathing]

interesting. I've seen those huge wall of Marshall amps in rock videos, but never wondered who invented them.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Yo Trooper Fellow Praisegrrl! Who would’ve thought, eh? LOL

[@donaldroberts7055]

Great story. At 2:52 that kid looks like a young Buck Owens.

Good, good stuff! Talk about multi-talented🤯wow!

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Thanks as always for the view, Cindy!

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Hey, Cindy - You should consider becoming a Trooper Fellow so you'll get priority and I can easily pick out your comments for a response! It's rapidly getting to the point that I can't personally respond very quickly to comments and I don't want to miss you folks that have been supporting me!

[@oddshot60]

A good story told well.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Thanks for listening! I expected that video to get a lot more attention that it ended up getting. Please help me out and share it!

[@patrickfreeman8257]

Interesting side note: One of Marshall's biggest fans was James Marshall Hendrix.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Jim said that Jimi was the best brand ambassador that they could ever have.

[@MrKaywyn]

Very interesting,

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the view and sub!!

[@shuroom57]

His honorary second last name, after Marshall, should be "Stack".

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Ha! It seems like Premier Drums could have piggy-backed on the endorsement train somehow….

[@gkess7106]

Suggestion for subject matter: the Brill building in New York my provide several stories for you.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Thanks for the idea! And THANKS for the view!

[@lessmith6848]

And now you know...the rest of the story.

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Yep! Don’t ya love it?! Thanks for watching and the sub!!

[@Music_is_Breathing]

Cool!!!!!

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Glad that you liked it!

[@Music_is_Breathing]

@@the_guitar_trooper It was really good. I always wondered what I would sound like if I was ever plugged into a real amp, not just a little portable Fender amp like I have.

[@patrickfreeman8257]

I think you're talking about Marshall

[@the_guitar_trooper]

Yep
