Hi all , selling my blue tolex 6100 el34 6100 head , excellent condition , in the UK. will post pics or you can see it on fleabay uk / reverb
Looking around £1000.
Hi all , been playing marshalls 30 years plus and am thinking on load boxes etc. Not sure exactly what the capture x does - it has attenuation which I get - can reduce volume of amp so I can crank up the master volume. Now - all the other stuff - cab simulation , mics , reverbs , etc etc does /...
Hi all , I have a blue el34 6100 head and am considering selling and getting an sv20. I have other amps ( 2203 / shiva / mesa royal) for the higher gain sounds and the 6100 lead channel just isn't as great as those amps. So what Im after is an amp that can do the classic hendrix / ac/dc sounds...
mines a stock 6100 el34. when I was young back in the early 90's I toured the uk ( supporting status quo!!) and marshall lent me their ( then new ) 6100le.
Played some big gigs with that! the quo all used jubilees.
ok , 2203 keeper
6100 clean destroys 2210 clean. Has more options.
6100 b channel "different " from 2210 but prefer 2210 , not by much though
Then theres the debate - reliability going forward of the 6100 vs the 2210. Being that 6100 is a PITA , very complicated.
ok all thanks for your input.
Building a man cave , leaving the wife and selling all the amps for $20k each!!!
Looks like consensus is the 2210 is the "weak link" but I do like it.
The 6100 clean hearts the 2210 and the B channel is great but doesnt quite cover the 2210 sound.
I guess the big...
Over the last 20 years Ive been lucky enough to pick these up.
I love them , they all work flawlessly. They are all slightly different with the obvious pros and cons.
One has to go ( or the wife) and I cant decide. Which amp not the wife , or...
Anyhow , any opinions welcome.
They are all 100...
hi , mine is the non lm el34 model. standard chassis. Will see if I can glean more info. Would love to do something , find 3rd channel a bit thin and compressed. Definitely like it with less gain but louder. I had the lm 5882 , much prefer the le el34
Hi , Im sure I've asked this before.
I have a blue tolex el34 6100. Any mods to open up the 3rd channel - lead - bit less compression. I dont need all the gain either.Other than swapping in 5751's etc
Hi , the marshall els4's are shuguang el34's. I wondered if theres any difference between the 2 as the 00087 is an el34b graded anode current white label and the 00101 the same just not white label. does anyone know what the white label means?
hi , one of the guys on the forum said you were the 6100 expert. I have a blue el34 version head and wondered about mods to channel 3 , to make it less compressed. It has all the gain I would ever need - could even be dialled back. I just think it sounds a little thin / compressed. already tried...
Hi all , apologies if this has already been discussed in this huge thread. I have the blue tolex el34 head and love it , have had it for many years. My main gripe has always been channel 3 , lots of gain , maybe too much , but in reality its that it sounds quite thin , compressed. Ive tried the...
Hi , ive decided to sell my 6100 el34 head. It is in excellent condition. Its been mostly bedroom and studio playing and rarely gigged , you can see from the photos how tidy it is. Its also had a very recent full health check at Marshall and some new preamp tubes , a new biased quad of power...
thanks for the info.
Is access to the pcb fairly easy? I heard a rumour its a nightmare to get to.
If its unscrewing fine , if its unsoldering stuff just to get access would be good to know whats involved.
thnx in advance
Can anyone tell me how to reverse the lm lead mod on channel 3.
Back to the original lower gain 6100 specs.
I understand its a few resistors and a cap.
Possibly something bridging into channel 2?
I want less gain. for me anything above 9 is unusable.
Ideally a 2nd channel 2…
thanks
