Jeff Nickoloff	Re: The old 70's vintage Marshall Mark II I have used tube screamers through my old -74 Marshall and my buddies '73. Both were four input models in great shape. I can't get close to the gain Malmsteen has. I recently read where he used a Dimarzio Very Metal pedal. I have never heard of this before. I love his tone. There's got to be more than a tube screamer into a Marshall on ten to get that much gain. Now on a master volume that amount of gain is easily acheived with a t.s. Anyone have ideas on this? Jeff
