Hi, I hoping on some advice; I got a JCM800 and the mofo is loud, dam loud!!! I just got it the other week and I love it! It is one of the newer reissue 2203’s and it’s awesome!! (gotta love that new amp smell at the top vent after a good gig ) I play Metal with an old school twist ( Iron Maiden, BLS) so this dog is perfect for me. I put brand new pre-amp Groove tubes inside and bam!!!! the gain is much more in your face now…….. However, at ear bleeding volumes, which I do love very much but the rest of my band totally hates! So here’s my question: after nosing around on eBay for a “Marshall Power Break” I came across many little boxes Like one was called the “Suck Knob” or the “Volume Box”…anyway they look like just what I need, but I don’t understand when I look at the “Marshall Power Break” it’s HUGE! and it looks like it needs to be to perform this type of work! And the ones on eBay are so small and only cost like $20 bucks??? I guess I trying to ask, are these little ones all you really need? Or will they damage the amp even though they clam they won’t?
