MEGADETH's DAVE MUSTAINE Interviewed By HARMONY CENTRAL At NAMM; Video Available

January 14, 2010

Harmony Central conducted an interview with MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine at the Marshall booth at this year's NAMM (National Association Of Music Merchants) show, which is being held January 14-17, 2010 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California. Watch the chat below.

Marshall Amplification is introducing the new Dave Mustaine special edition MG microstack guitar amplifier, dubbed the Megastack. The three-piece unit includes a 15-watt compact head with four channels, plus two matching speaker cabinets — one angled and one straight. Each cabinet is loaded with a full-range 10" Celestion speaker. Available in extremely limited quantities in the U.S., the amplifier looks like a compact version of Mustaine's legendary full sized touring rig that he uses with MEGADETH.

Mustaine will be signing autographs at the Dean Guitars booth (booth 5466B) on Friday, January 15 from 12:30 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. and on Saturday, January 16 from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The much-anticipated American Carnage tour, featuring thrash metal behemoths MEGADETH, SLAYER and TESTAMENT, has been put on hold due to health issues. SLAYER's bassist/vocalist Tom Araya is in need of back surgery which cannot be postponed.

While disappointed by the tour's delay, MEGADETH "is concerned for Araya and wish[es] him a speedy recovery," according to a statement released by the band's record label, Roadrunner Records.

MEGADETH is currently scheduling a U.S. headline run for March and April, and hopes to reschedule the American Carnage tour for this summer.

Anyone who has purchased an American Carnage ticket should hold on to it until further notice.
