"Guitar amp innovator Jim Marshall, dubbed 'the Father of Loud' for creating kit used by some of the biggest names in rock, has died aged 88.

Mr Marshall, who originally owned a music shop in London, founded Marshall Amplification 50 years ago.

Jimi Hendrix and Kurt Cobain are among the musicians who used Marshall amps."

"In addition to the creation of the amps chosen by countless guitar heroes and game changing bands, Jim was also an incredibly humble and generous man who, over the past several decades, has quietly donated many millions of pounds to worthy causes."

"Virtually every major guitarist has used Marshall amps at one time or another, and giant arrays of Marshall cabs - often suggested to be empty boxes, with no actual amplification purposes - have become key stage props for generations of metal bands, especially."

"Als 'Father of Loud' hat er die Rockmusik in den 1960er-Jahren mitgeformt, die von ihm kreierten Verstärker sind bis heute erste Wahl grosser Gitarristen und Rockbands."
