    '96 JTM45 reissue.

    In 2003 I modded it to period-correct (1966 JTM45) specs.

    Last year I modded it to be a '68 50W Plexi (tube rectified) with the .68uF V2 bypass cap (EVH plexi gain secret!).

          I’d post my JCM 800 but it’s out being modded at the moment.

            I went into a random Dallas Texas Music store yesterday. They had 3 classic Traynor amps (and had already sold a few others) from a collector in Texas who had recently passed.

            Now, I've never see 4 Traynors in one store before but they had a Guitarmate YGM-3A -which is a hand-wired Fendery sounding amp with a really high end reverb tank (accutronics like Fender) and even better Tremelo (Vibrato as Fender mistakenly called it) -A great amp, A big Reverb Master which is really good, A modern version, and the grand daddy a real YBA-A1 Bassmaster MkII -which brings this comment into this thread topic -as it's the ultimate Marshall Plexi Derivative -and one of the easiest and most fun amps to MOD.

            I may go pick it up tomorrow and get it to snarling dog Marshall Plexi level this summer.

                I'll try to dig out the 2555 for a few pics tomorrow.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

                    My DIY 18 Watter clone, originally a Bogen PA amp chassis. I love the looks of the old Univox Group B amps (another great beastly Marshallesque amp line) but have no use for 60 or 100-watt stacks any more. So I built this. Low-powered Marshall tone with groovy '70s Univox style.

                        Since Mike’s target tone for his crunch channels was aimed at the JMP, here are my Soldanos. Plus, the Chrome Dome custom amp is a JTM style circuit with Adam’s touches built in.
