Marshall JCM900 MkIII Info

[ErikH]

For those who have asked me or ever wondered about the MkIII Master Volumes, I have lots of info on my web site about them. There will be more info to come I'm sure but as it stands right now, it should answer a lot of questions.

Marshall JCM900 MkIII

Re: Marshall JCM900 MkIII Info

I like the site Erik!!!!!!!! The MKIII's are definetly over looked by most people!!! I have noticed that they are gaining value since I got mine. I bought my 2100 a year or 2 ago from GC used for $500. It seems like at that time they were about the same price on Ebay but, it seems like they are fetching more money now. Have some people taken notice??????

I dunno. It's possible since all the JCM800's are being snatched up and what is out there is out of the average gigging musician's price range. I'm hoping that with that page, some good words will be spread about the JCM900 amps, especially the MkIII's.

I have, but at a lower volume setting. There is a change in the tone. It's not as big and full. It still sounds good, just not as good as full power. This is based on the 100 watt. I don't know how it would affect the sound of the 50 watt.

no! you should have bought a 5150 !

I had one of those, the first edition. Great sounding as it was, it was still missing something. Then when I played the Marshall MkIII, I knew what it was....the tone. 5150's are good amps, no denying that, they lack that smooth and warm overdrive that these Marshalls have.

Nothing sounds like a Marshall..except a Marshall...even the boutique stuff is just not quite there....Maybe because they are trying to 'improve" upon it?

I don't know...but nothing has that sparkle and crackle and KERRRRANNNGGGG like a Marshall.
