I bought my amp and cab many years ago, and payed ca 650$ back then. Can someone please tell me if it was a good buy, and how the amp and cab are? I will tell as much as I know about them, so you can find out what I am talking about.
The amp:
Marshall JCM 800 Lead Series
- Power and Standby switch
- 3 Channels: Normal (Bass, treble and Gain), Boost (Bass, Middle, Treble, Volume, Gain) and Master (Presence, Volume and Reverb).
- The serial number i 122694
- Model 2210 I guess...
The Cab:
Marshall Lead Series Cab Model 8412
- Serial number 4234
- 140 W R.M.S. 8 8ohms
- 4 x 12 cab, but the size is a bit smaller than the regular Marshall 4x12 cabs.
I am pretty satisfied with my amp and cab, especially with the clean. The Boost channel is very chrunchy (sounds like a heavy Bif Muff) and does not give the Fat, chrunchy, clear and massive distortion I am looking for.
Any possibilities to change this? Heard that some guys had done amazing things with their JCM 800 in here.
It`s modded by the way. The guy who had it before me played in a Noise/Emo band and maybe that`s why the boost channel souns a little weird...
Any suggestions? Thanks!
