'Father of Loud' Jim Marshall dies, aged 88
Marshall started his business in a garage before opening a factory in 1964.
JIM Marshall, the man whose guitar amplifiers earned him the nickname "the father of Loud", has died aged 88.
A statement on his company's website said: "It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved founder and leader for the past 50 years, Jim Marshall. While mourning the Guv'nor though, we also salute a legendary man who led a full and truly remarkable life."
"While the entire Marshall Amplification family mourns Jim's passing and will miss him tremendously, we all feel richer for having known him and are happy in the knowledge that he is now in a much better place which has just got a whole lot louder."
Marshall, from London, began building amplifiers in his garage after first trying his luck as an engineer and drummer.
He went on to open a factory in 1964 and soon his trademark signature was seen on amplifiers for names such as Jimi Hendrix and Pete Townshend.
Rock legends have quickloy taken to Twitter to pay tribute to the man who gave bthem their sound.
Former Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash wrote: "The news of Jim Marshall passing is deeply saddening. R&R will never be the same w/out him."

Hmm I thought that might be the case. The fact we are struggling to think of decent rock bands post gnr worthy of inducting them, says a lot about the quality (or lack of) of acts in more recent times.
I don't mind some of the early Green Day stuff but it iust doesn't seem right them doing it. Then again not much about this whole HOF thing seem right so why break with the theme.
#786 Re: Guns N' Roses » Green Day to Induct Guns N' Roses Into Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Rea » 735 weeks ago
How do they choose who inducts them? Is it usually someone that isn't already in the HOF themselves?
I would have thought they could get someone like Aerosmith, ACDC, The Rolling Stones, Brian May etc etc

Crazy rock n'roll antics going on there!
Yeah, here's me thinking there would be Nude girls, drugs and alcohol in the studio. But instead there is balloon origami.
Man they look so young too. They wasted the best years of their life tinkering endlessly in the studio
