JCM 2000 TSL.. Plz review...!!

[edi_87]

Hi!
I've been thinking of buying a TSL 100. I heard a lot of mp3's whith it's sound, and like it VERY much, but all of them are just full of rock sounds and i don't know if TSL 100 is good for other types of music..
I like strange sounding strats a lot, and need an amp which makes a good combo with them . I play mostly modern rock, metal, but a lot of modern jazz-rock, or FUSION too. As you can see i need very versatile amp. Would TSL 100 fulfill my needs???
Please help...

Well you can get all the info online, but it is probably time for new power amp tubes which I'll take care of. A few minor scuffs in the tolex. Nothing you would see unless you look for them. I have the power chord, and footswitch. I've been the only owner, I have had it for 2 years. I've put casters on it because its pretty heavy. I've played out with it about 5 times and handled it myself and shows no signs of such.

However you being in poland might make any transaction a little tricky.

I like this amp a lot. It's versatile and has great tone. A friend of mine owns one, and I've gotten to use it a lot. It's very versatile. Does eveything from clean to metal, everything inbetween. Three channels with separate eqs. It's a great amp, but it's a great amp with its own tone. Like most nice amps, it has its own unique character. I think you would like the amp, but play one before you buy one. What I think and what you think might be two different things. I know this sounds stupid, but I'm going to state it anyway. It's a great amp if you're looking for that tone, but don't buy a Marshall if you're looking for the Mesa tone, it won't do it, buy a Mesa. Similarly, don't buy a JCM-2000 if you're looking for the plexi tone, buy a plexi. Try as many amps as you can and choose the one that you like best. Good luck in your search.

I tried the TSL and did not like anything about it. The sound was so sterile and had some problems with the sound going off/on. It was a floor model at a guitar store. I was more impressed with the DSL but none of those even compare to the JCM 800. Better yet, you could wait a while when those new Marshall RI hit the showroom floors. Those should be worth the wait.
