Marshall Haze Amps Now In Stock at Ballew's Music - Carrollton, GA

noreply@blogger.com (Ballew's Music - Carrollton, GA) — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 19:10:00 +0000

New Haze line of compact and portable, valve-driven performance amplifiers from Marshall: the 40-Watt Haze combo (MHZ40C) and the 15-Watt Haze head (MHZ15). The Haze line was designed for the musician who demands an honest clean sound, a driving blues tone and some biting rock — all from a single, gig-ready amp. The Haze 40 combo is equipped with a single Celestion G12-66 Marquee 12" speaker. The Haze 15 head can be paired with matching single 12" Celestion G12-66 Marquee loaded cabinets (MHZ112A - angled; MHZ112B - base) as well.

The preamp section is powered by three ECC83 valves (tubes). Both Haze models feature two channels (normal and overdrive) that share a three-band EQ; a Bright switch adds extra emphasis to the highs. A selection of retro-style effects offers authentically-voiced Echo, Vibrato, and Chorus. An emulated spring-reverb is also included. Effect settings are retained by each channel for immediate recall during performance. All effects remain truly bypassed when completely off, providing a more direct signal path.

The Haze 40 combo features unique cabinet construction elements. The closed-back cabinet has been modified with four circular holes to preserve the best aspects of both an open-back and a closed-back design. The speaker is asymmetrically mounted, allowing for extended lows. This combo also features an additional presence control in the EQ, as well as a boost switch to add more depth to the low-mids. A bypass-able effects loop is also included. For recording or directly patching into a PA system, an emulated speaker line output recreates the speaker response. Power is provided by two EL34 valves.

The Haze 15 head is powered by a pair of 6V6 valves. Two 8-Ohm and one 16-Ohm speaker jacks are provided. The matching MHZ112 cabinets feature finger-jointed construction and a closed back design for robust tone and efficient power handling. The MHZ112B is a straight style (base) design; the MHZ112A is the traditional Marshall angled (top) style. Together with the Haze 15 head, they form a striking mid-size stack that is easily transportable.

An included two-way footswitch allows for channel switching and turning effects on and off.

The Marshall Haze 40-watt combo (MHZ40C) and the 15-watt head (MHZ15) are available, well, NOW! Click here for our Marshall Haze page

Oh my goodness....it's finally here!

Marshall Lemmy Kilmister Signature Bass Stack
Marshall Amplification introduces the new Lemmy Kilmister Signature 1992LEM Super Bass Head and matching MF280L 4x12" and oversized 1979L 4x15" cabinets. The amplifier is Marshall's first Signature Series bass amp, and it will be available in extremely limited quantities in the U.S. The 1992LEM is a faithful replica of Lemmy's favored model 1992 Super Bass Head from 1976, affectionately named "Murder One." Lemmy's original amp was in the studio and on the road for over 30 years, until Marshall presented him with 1992LEM prototypes for Motorhead's 2007-8 tour and Murder One went into a well-deserved retirement. The new 1992LEM captures the look, feel, sound and power of Murder One, as well as Lemmy and his legendary band Motorhead.

2 in stock....these won't be here long!

The Option Knob for effects pedals...Now at Ballew's Music

noreply@blogger.com (Ballew's Music - Carrollton, GA) — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 21:52:00 +0000

Introducing the Option Knob, a killer new accessory for effects pedals!

Everybody knows we adore effects pedals here, and you can just imagine how excited we were when found an accessory for effects pedals that wasn't a board or a patch cable...and this one's pretty cool AND functional!

If your one of the many players who use effects, you've probably encountered a situation where you wished you could change a setting on one of your effects on-the-fly without having to wait until the end of a song, or worse....interrupt your performance. Maybe you have a part in a song where you'd like to start off with just a hint of overdrive, but you need full-tilt saturation in the chorus? Maybe you have a delay pedal and want slapback in one part of the song but want longer delay time in another part? I could go on, but you get the basic premise.

Enter The Option Knob!
The Option Knob is a nifty little device that allows you to control your pedal's settings with your foot, enabling you to keep both hands on your guitar. Need to make a minor adjustment? No problem! Better yet, with the control the Option Knob gives you, you can experiment and explore a whole new range of sonic goodness!

So How Does It Work?

Select which factory knob you'd like to control with your foot. Turn the knob counter-clockwise as far as it will go, then remove the knob by pulling it firmly upward (Don't forget to put this knob in a safe place...don't lose it!)

Align the Option Knob so that it's 'wings' are positioned at 7 O'Clock and 1 O'Clock when looking at the pedal, push the Option Knob on in place of where the factory knob was, push carefully until you feel that there is a snug or adequate grip to utilize the Option Knob's universal fit.

Use your foot to nudge the wings of the Option Knob left and right to whatever settings you prefer. Enjoy manipulating the knob during live performances for more interactive real-time expression. You now have more options and control over your sound by using your foot instead of bending down and using your hand! Pretty cool, huh?

You've Got Options!

The Option Knob comes in 2 styles - Classic and Boutique. The Classic Option Knob will work for most effects pedals made by Boss, BBE, Digitech, Diaz, Electro Harmonix, T Rex, DOD, while the boutique version is for many boutique effects on the market today. Some of the boutique effects use pots with a slightly larger diameter. We will have a more detailed list of effects companies in the future, but to be on the safe side, just take the knob off of your pedal and measure the diameter of the potentiometer...simply because the model you need might vary from pedal to pedal.

The Option Knob Classic will accomodate pot sizes of .220-.235in

The Option Knob Boutique will accomodate pot sizes of .235-.25in

The Option Knob retails for $9.99, and we have have both styles in stock at Ballew's Music

Diamond Memory Lane - Custom Color - Last of the Original Version 1

noreply@blogger.com (Ballew's Music - Carrollton, GA) — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 20:37:00 +0000

Diamond Memory Lane Analog Delay w/ Tap Tempo

Grab this one while you can!
This is a custom color Memory Lane, and when we ordered it, we were told it was the last one they had so that makes this one pretty special. It's also an opportunity to take advantage of the price, because while we're sure the upcoming Memory Lane II will totally rule, it'll retail out around $600.

Ballew's Music Price: $459 - Click Here to Purchase

Don't forget the original Memory Lane is the best damned analog delay on the planet (until #2 comes out!) ....at least that's how see it!

About the Memory Lane:
It's so nice and warm it's not even funny. As you can probably guess already, this isn't your typical analog delay. The Memory Lane has a number of innovations that bridge the feature gap between analog and digital delays while retaining the warmth and unique sound of bucket brigade delay devices in an all analog signal path. Offering up to 550 ms delay time, tempo can be set either by dial or by foot tap switch. When you don't need foot control of tempo, you can use the second foot switch as an on/off switch for the modulation feature simply by switching the small feature' toggle switch from 'tap' to 'mod'.
