Originally a DeVille man, Marsden got hip to the Fender Vibro-Kings, which he uses exclusively onstage, from friend Ed O’Brien of Radiohead. He says the stacks of Vibro-Kings are the closest to a mini Marshall stack that he feels comfortable playing because they still retain the California surf vibe and project a robust clean sound. The combos are loaded with three 10" Jensen speakers and the extension cabs have two 12" models.
