Apart from being an admitted newbie, I have been reading about Marshall amps a fair bit (obviously not exhaustively) but I’ve heard of most of the usual suspects from the JTM, JCM, JMP, JVM, SC, SV, Origin, DSL, etc.
There’s a JTM60 combo (2x12) for sale in my area for cheap (for a Marshall) ~700USD, claims it is in full working order, and I’ve never heard of this amp - and JTM is a pretty legendary acronym (ok, initialism). Is there a good reason I haven’t heard of these? They must not be awesome(?) Or just short lived? Cursory research seems to indicate they have overheating issues? Is it worth looking into? I’m always searching vintage UK rock tones a la JTM45 or plexi in general… any thoughts appreciated, cheers!
