MEGADETH's Dave Mustaine Demonstrates Signature MARSHALL Cabinet

In 1962, a new amplifier became available to guitarists, bringing with it a whole new approach to how the guitar was played. 21 years later, in 1983 a new band emerged on the San Francisco bay area, bringing with them a unique, new sound for a generation. The music had a distinctive guitar style, often involving complex, intricate musical passages. The lyrics were profound and gave a sharp, cynical view of modern society. The band MEGADETH, the visionary Dave Mustaine.


The Dave Mustaine signature range consists of two cabinets, the 1960A-DM, which carries the classic angled look, and the 1960B-DM, the base, straight front cabinet.

Hand-built in Marshall's U.K. factory, the company's development engineers have worked closely with Dave over the last year, and have devised Marshall's most visually and sonically striking product to date. This "sealed" construction gives tightly focused, aggressive projection to the sound and is exactly to Dave's specification.

The cabinet has a more open face look, with a diamond pattern, black powder coated steel kick grille to protect the speakers. Covered in rugged "Carbon Fibre" patterned, slate black vinyl, the cabs are finished with high impact-resistant cabinet fixtures and durable Manganese-Phosphate plated screws and rivets.

The final touch is a custom plaque in the corner of the cab, carrying the signatures of both Dave Mustaine and Dr. Jim Marshall OBE.

Included with each 1960DM cabinet is a DVD presented by Dave and featuring the building of the cabinet. There is also a heavy duty dust cover with a custom artwork and a product completion certificate hand-signed by the Marshall production staff.

  7. COme`on just because you two are stubborn and don't wish to believe anything other than what you say doesn't mean you're right.
    I know for a fact that there are loads of other people liking megadeth better. Metallica being a more commercial band has more followers but Megadeth is fucking awesome \m/

  8. Megadeth till Cryptic Writings was brilliant. After that? not so much. I've liked everything Metallica has done except St. Anger. The songwriting is overall more memorable. But Megadeth at their peak was my second favourite band of all time.

  9. Mustaine needs to vomit out whatever's been stuck in his throat for the last 30-odd years. Had hoti hai.
