I don't think they are out yet. From what I heard they won't ship until sometime in February. Can't wait to play thru the Vm though!

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Did I mention pricey or is this another new series of amps?! :laugh2:

$1350 for a brand spankin' new 50 watt head shipped from England isn't pricey to me. That's actually right in the ballpark of what I expected the price to be.

The Vintage/Modern is one of the two new series of amps. The JVM is the other series.

Musicians Fiend is taking pre-orders, as ErikH said in the other thread. I don't think the prices are too bad for the (VM)50w head & 4X12 cab. Unfortunately, their not showing the 2X12 combo version.
 
Re: Anyone tried the new Marshall JVMs and/or the Vintage Modern yet?

that is a tasty price indeed. wonder if the combo will be under $2grand...
 
Re: Anyone tried the new Marshall JVMs and/or the Vintage Modern yet?

Forget my prediction above: According to Harmony Central, the Vintage Modern combo's MSRP is $2300. Maybe the retail price will be lower, but I doubt it.
 
Re: Anyone tried the new Marshall JVMs and/or the Vintage Modern yet?

Of course it will be lower. That is MSRP, manufacturers suggested retail price. The MSRP of the 50 watt head is something like $1900.00 and MF's price is $1350.00. Don't ever go by MSRP because almost everyone will sell it lower than that.
 
Re: Anyone tried the new Marshall JVMs and/or the Vintage Modern yet?

Nice, hopefully Marshall's taking a hint from Peavey and Epiphone and learning that we want to play amps that sound good AND that we can afford...

Now if only Orange would take that same hint...

When I worked at GC, bone cast was usually 1/2 of MSRP (full list price) and then there was anywhere from 20-30% markup on that,

1900 / 2 = 950 x 1.25 = $1187.5, probably rounded up to $1199.99 ??????

Who knows? Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

The Vintage Modern looks like a cool head... the JVMs have too many knobs... scary lookin! :laugh2:

I know that the MSRP is always higher, but I was thinking that since it's a new really hot item, they may not budge very much from that....maybe I was being too negative. If they drop it by enough percentage points, I'll jump on it for sure:banana:
