I've had trouble to connect to the metro forum lately and thought it perhaps was because i'm an european ....But no , stumbled upon a response from george on rig talk :
apparently it may be possible that the metro amp forum 's invaluable knowledge ressource is lost forever .... Only because of a virus which broken down a server
i mean ...shit

I'm in works with lots of Marshall layouts since few months (Superleads, REAL single triode powered tremolo 'Bluesbreaker', JTM45's, Majors, etc...) As soon as Metro forum will be up I will be happy to donate them. I owe Metro all Marshall knowledge I have

I had to think about that metaphor for a while. Then I remembered, I used to have a Triumph Spitfire with a bad rear end. It made a horrible grinding noise and vibrated badly at speeds above 60mph. I guess I can relate after all.

It's pretty intense when they do that "EVH tone" thing. The problem is that they're all trying to mimic a cranked 100w Plexi at bedroom/mouse fart volumes and aren't realizing when the voltage on the tubes goes up that the amp fattens up.
They all think they can get the exact same tone with PPIMV, cap mods, stomp boxes, etc so they don't wake the baby in the next bedroom, or piss off the wife.
And they're all right individually and the next guy is DEAD WRONG.
It gets frigging old, to say the least.
