    Best 100 watt Marshall for high gain/dirty sound.

    I have a modded 78 JMP 50w, and I've not heard anything come close to the heaviness, but I might be biased😂 an honourable mention is the mid 90s VS100😎🤘

    1978 JMP 2203 adding a loop?

    Cheers man, my amp is so brutal on it's own, but and preamp distortion it heavy fuzz just eliminates the sound of the head, and detracts from the beautiful gutteral valve tones. I've noticed people mention loop pedals, but I suspect they mean a pedal for looping guitar parts for under/overdubs...

    1978 JMP 2203 adding a loop?

    I know I'm coming late to the party, I'm wondering if I could make an FX loop, without mods, my 78 JMP 2204 already has been altered, with an extra preamp tube, and foot switch, for an overdriven channel with seperate preamp and master settings. Could I possibly just run the head through my desk...

    Chinese vs Indo guitars - which are better.. or less bad?

    Last year I sold an LTD viper 50, it was Indo made, think i paid roughly 450aud. It was very well made, great action, not bad pick ups, sounded good for being passive, and was a very handsome axe. For a intermediate guitar it was awesome, but that being said, LTD and ESP make awesome products...

    Random or original valves from 78 2204 ID help?

    So the first singular preamp tube is a tungsram, the other 3 are Telefunken copies, the rft is the taller wider one with the intact pin guide, and the one that has EL34 clearly written on it is a shuguang correct? Thanks heaps guys!

    Random or original valves from 78 2204 ID help?

    Hey there again Marshall crew, recently I replaced my EL34 and 12AX7S when refurbishing my amp, and because of the od mod, there are 4 preamp valves. I'm very happy with the swapping out of the EL34 EH tubes, and I got 4 EH preamp 12AX7s, and was surprised at the difference in tone. It's very...

    Modded 78 JMP combo w/ OD?

    There's also the possibility that it was used/made for having the main preamp and master set for mild crunch, or clean with a pedal, and the overdrive was for big heavy kick ins.... If this was modded in the early 90s as I suspect, this was the era of loudy softy style music the "Pixies" made...

    Modded 78 JMP combo w/ OD?

    It sounds great both ways, but I only just found out what the mod does, I've owned it for over 10 years, and the mod was installed a long time before that. I'm guessing it was because of a lack of options for decent pedals back in the 90s, either way this amp is a beast! Oh when it was in od...

    Fuzz recommendations...

    So I did a vid of my overdrive mod on my JMP, and I thought I should do a vid on the cheap fuzz pedals, sorry for the length, lots of knob twiddling🤣 anyhow here tis.... Azor cattle fuzz, joyo tiny huge fuzz, Dolamo fuzz and the big muff to compare

    Modded 78 JMP combo w/ OD?

    So I've done a quick video too demo the mod, I set the amp as chunky as I could, to see how much difference there is, it's not a huge difference from the sound on the clip, but it's there! This is also the old preamp tubes I can't identify, so I'll do another vid when I swap them out. Sorry for...

    78 Celestion T1221 Blackback Marshall label

    Sorry for the Segway, not Marshall related.... I bought a non working Ace tone SA-45 guts ace that I was hoping to fix, but with no love as of yet! On the plus side, it's the original speaker, and although dusty and old, it's in fantastic condition! Do you guys know much about Ace tone guitar...

    Fuzz recommendations...

    Haha so I've already returned the joyo tiny huge fuzz, not my idea of a fuzz pedal, the azor cattle fuzz pedal is pretty cool, fairly versatile range of tone, still not a true fuzz, but definitely cool, and the third I'll collect Monday, the reviews I've heard on this pedal seem to be favourable🤞

    78 Celestion T1221 Blackback Marshall label

    Nah man it's awesome 👍 I'm hoping I can keep learning until I don't have to bother you with my nonsense😂 that being said since I've put it back in the cab, there are some scratchy poppy noises coming out, but it could be numerous things, I need to trouble shoot, first I need to figure if it's...

    78 Celestion T1221 Blackback Marshall label

    Thanks guys, this amp has produced a few unique oddities, ie- the pre Rola 66 G12M, and onboard valve overdrive mod w/ foot switch, and wasn't sure what speakers were stock. Still sounds great, the dust cap looks like it's lifted, but it's in place, and looks like glue used to repair it has...
