I must admit, at first brush it does smack of "POSEUR!" but cabs are heavy and expensive to transport and you only mic up one cab typically so paying to tote half a ton of unused gear does seem silly. To wit, bands have been using one loaded cab and wands of dummy cabs. Here is a pick of BLACK VEIL BRIDES using 4 DUMMY CABS with not a real cab in the mix at all since they run direct now with axe effects. The cabs are just like their makeup. An affectation.

That name already screams "Poser" itself I think that Metallica Used this fake cabinets on stage too... They played thru Mesa Boogie Mark IIc i think, but on stage there were DIESEL amps!

It would be worse if your favourite guitarist came on stage and played Air Guitar. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

I slagged them off for ages afterwards about it to anyone who would listen ...... then I found out that most ( if not ALL ) of my favourite bands done the same thing I think Rush have the best approach with just having washing machines and crazy stuff like that instead of pretend amps.

Maybe they don't just use 4 dummy cabs, but also faking the AxeFX running all guitars directly through zoom 505? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

The only possible benefit for having multiple cabs on stage like that has only ever been visual, nothing more. Other 'wall of amps' stage setups of note would be Yngwie Malmsteen in the late 80's and Slayer. But let's face it - a wall of Marshalls looks amazing You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Yngwie actually hooks several up I hear so his stage volume can get a bit nuts but hey it's rock and roll I'm personally not offended by the fake cabs, or by the fake hair colors, or by the sometimes fake tattoos. It's just theatre after all But I was far more judgemental when I was first learning to play, even though I was a complete noob.

I think that if you are going to have something back there, it should be something that actually benefits the band and the entire organizations. For instance, Chicken Rotisseries... Or, it's the perfect time to do everyone's laundry, with vending machines... You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
