  • I took the plunge....

    I am now a proud owner of a Marshall JMP 2204.

    I've got 2 JJ KT88s 1 JJ matched triode 12AX7, and 2 JJ high gain graded 12AX7s coming from Bob at Eurotubes.

    Pictures will be up tonight or tomorrow courtesy of D!ck and his digital camera.

    I took my Tele last night and it sounded like a BEAST through that amp. My wife thought it sounded good as well, I also plugged up the guys Red R8 with Antiq. and played a bit. She gave me the go ahead and after some...negotiations we loaded it up and off I went.

    Next question...anyone got a bias probe I can borrow?

        Shouldn't you be working?

        Also I have to give credit where it's due, Christian is the man who helped me figure out what I could do tonally, and where this amp fell in the scheme of the Marshall line, so hats off to him. We burned many a minute on this baby.

        Fortunately when I move next month, or Dec. I'll have somewhere to crank it!!! I'll be living back out in the country.

          He told me about your chanting yesterday. I think you finally pushed him over the edge. Good job!

          I've yet to hear it, though I saw it last night. The pictures are going to cost him some playing time...LOL!

                Congrats, bro.

                I'm jealous. Those are some sweet amps but hey, if I can't get one might as well influence others who know what they're getting to get one.

                Rule number 1, Luke and TGB are not allowed to post pics of their amps in the same thread..... JeffB will probably agree with me on this one..

                  That's discrimination!!!!

                  hahahaha I just used the dancey sheep thingey!!!

                  BTW the serial # is 00659N according to http://www.guitarattic.com/how_to_da...rshall_amp.htm

                  It's an 81. The cab says 1982 on the silver badge, and the Serial # for that was 3870.
