Open Box Marshall JCM800 2203 Vintage Series 100W Tube Head Level 1

I own an original from 1983 and bought a used reissue from our local Guitar Center. The reiusses are amazing and 98% of the same mojo as the original -- plus you get an effects loop. Don't waste your money on channel switching nonsense -- just get this and few pedals and start getting inspired.

I love this head. Its a Marshall 100 Watts of pure power.

"Hey, I've got a great JCM800 model on my laptop..." "Have you ever played a real JCM800?" "...no..." DON'T BE THIS GUY! You don't know what a guitar sounds like until you've played through a Marshall. It's like the difference between shooting a bullet and throwing it. With the gain cranked, it's the sound of rock and roll. Add a Boss Super Overdrive and your solos will practically play themselves. Roll back the gain and you'll have a clean sound as sweet as any JC120. "But I need an orange mode, and a ghetto bass boost, and a sad chorus channel..." Yeah, I've been there, and I'm never going back!

The JCM800 2203 reissue is by far the best rock amp. I use it for classic rock, from ac/dc to Ozzy. By simply changing preamp tubes, you can customize it to you're liking. I have two of them,one is modded and one stock. I love 'em both.

This is one of the most versatile amps i have ever owned. It can nail anything from a hard crunch tone to a soft blues sound. It has a great response to the guitars volume. To get the best tone , just like any other Marshall, the amp must be cranked, but a cool option the jcm gives you is the preamp so you can get a decent distortion without bothering the neighbors. Great amp worth every penny.

Plain and simple this is one of the greatest amps ever made. But let me tell you about the amps tone the Mids are so smooth the treble are crisp and clear its not to heavy on the bass but it still has enough low end to play classic thrash metal or Guns N Roses type of music but you need a really good overdrive pedal.
