SERIOUSLY?

[anitoli]

what about this one?


Vintage Marshall 1972 SUPER LEAD 100 100W HEAD Tube Guitar Amp Head | Guitar Center

Better off just to get this, hook it up, plug in and play and not worry if it's been hacked or not original, ect.

Not bad idea!

If someone wants to pay it....but I'd say no to that amp. Cleaner examples than that have sold for less. No knock on the amp, it's a good example, but not good enough for the asking price. Not to me.

Just WOW!

While I'd love to have that amp, I'd love even more to have that kind of change to play around with!

And then, the greedy sock tucker with the cohones to ask that price, while obviously not realizing that his listing it as a JMP 50 watt is criminally ludicrous. Sellers like that (along with all the "bankers") need to get rounded up and hung by those cohones!

Am I Wrong?

Re: the London 2x12 auction. Strictly speaking it is a JMP50 Trem, one of the first after the 45 using -128OT but still with tube rectifier.

Price is crazy. I do not know what their strategy is....high price, get 'lowball' offers and accept 2/3 of the asking price (still steep for a recover IMO). Again 1/2 that asking price and I think it would sell.

Thanks for that clarification/correction. I absolutely love the depth of accumulated and historic knowledge shared here! I absorb it like a sponge!
Thanks Again,

Lets see, I could buy this one, or..... I could go to Nik and get about 12-15 of the nicest amps ever. Hmmmm, tough call....

It is pretty common to see stuff "dangled" overpriced on Ebay and Reverb. The vintage market never quite recovered from the original financial crisis of 2008-2009 and asking and selling prices seemed to get pretty far apart since. The seller of the '68 is someone I remember from the old Plexi Palace board. He does have a "make offer" on the auction and is probably getting real-world offers. It is a player level amp. This '68 configuration isn't that rare. In times like these it is probably better to be a buyer than a seller.

 

[matttornado]

wow, I guess I will stick with my Origin for now.

probably sounds just as good or better too!

looks like a mixer cap is removed?

which amp?

 

[Exotic]

20 thousand dollars for that thing to appear here in the usa ,bless the monkey !

 

[Mrmadd]

I would rather give GC the money for an overpriced used amp. At least they will give you back the money if it turns out to be a clunker.

Ebay guys do shit like this all the time...."trying to hit a financial home run"

 

[Huey Falls]

wow, I guess I will stick with my Origin for now.

Love my Origin 50, I think it’s worth a million to me.

 

[Steven Howes]

They are worth that much in my opinion, but certainly don't have to cost that much.

That right there, Explains the entire vintage market to me. Well said!

Its like watching some rig run down on youtube where they have banks of "dud empty heads and cabs" up front and one head and cab with backup mic'ed round the back plugged into the mixer/PA. Talking to the rig guy (engineer) they will tell you they want reliability and some kit musicians use they have owned for years. Best thing I bought was a JMP-1 and plugged into my power amps sounds perfect though G12ts G12HS and V30s, in fact it NEVER sounds bad.
