Jade Puget's Gear
"When we recorded with Joe (Crash Love Producer), I used my modified Marshall “Plexi” mixed with a Marshall 800, a Custom Audio OD -100 and a Bogner Shiva, which is a big part of my sound on this album. I’d never used that amp before, and it sounded great with a Les Paul"

"GW What does the Bogner Shiva do that Marshalls don’t?
PUGET I like the sound of the Plexi, but it needs something to complement it in the low end. That’s something that the Plexi is missing, and I’d never found an amp to fill that gap. But that Bogner is the one that finally did it, and really gave the Marshall a bit of heft. "
