if your a beginner dont go spending all your money on a 100 watt, buy a marshall used 50 watt amp first, then go with the 100 later on in your lifetime of playing.

i like marshalls im saving up for a half stack.
but yah about your guitar u said 5 pickups??
i think your talking about the switch that changes the humbuckers to singel coil is this true just cheacking. or if u really do have 5 pickups send a pick because ive never seen one lol sry i sound noob or just stupid its the weed

i saw a 6 pickup guitar. But it was only half pickup. I never felt like trying it out, but i bet it'd be super for sound qualities.

the marshall tone kicks ass for anything and everything.

humbuckers is wat u use for distortion.
it "cancels" out the hum while in that state.
if u put a single coil in distortion then your going to get a really annoying constant "hum" the humbucker gets rid of that and makes the tone real nice and mean

an update on my post about the 6 humbucker guitar. It was a fender strat model, old one, i think 1960 with a glitter gold like pickguard and a lighter shade of gold body. Painted glitter like though, they didn't make the body out of gold, lol. But it hade 6 half-a-pickup pickups, one on top of the other like-
___pick
pick
___pick
pick
___pick
pick

anyone seen it before?

you're thinking of G&L's pickups. They aren't separate pickups, but rather, they're split.

is this what you're talking about?

Well it has Flanger, Chorus, and delay, which may supply you with stuff to make
melodic metal type of stuff.....
