Chris Broderick's Amplifiers
“I've played Marshall forever,” Megadeth founder Dave Mustaine says at (3:52). “It's just I established the band on Marshall sound.” According to Chris Broderick, Megadeth’s lead guitarist at (7:51), “As far as the live rig, [Dave’s and my] rig are actually virtually identical. That's so that we keep that tightness that he was talking about.”
So on to Th1rt3en, what did you use amp-wise? ** For the rhythms it was a mix of the Diezel VH4** and the Bogner Uberschall. It was a very good combination. I felt they complimented each other really well. And for the leads it was just the Bogner Uberschall. Those were [producer] Johnny K’s amps and those were amps that he really liked. When we looked at how those amps sounded in the mix, they definitely fit the sound the best out of all the amps we had.
According to Megadeth guitarist Chris Broderick at (7:51) “Right now, we're running straight into…into Marshall cabinets loaded with the Vintage 30s. It's just your traditional thrash setup. That's what we're out here to do, so we're doing it.”
