johhurt's Punk Studio Setup
Classic JCM900 Hi Gain Master Volume MkIII with matching cab. Dialed in a pretty clean tone as a basis for my pedals but also stands well on its own with reverb added.

Marshall JCM 900 Model 2100 100-Watt Hi Gain Master Volume MkIII Head
Avg price: $1,000.00
Classic JCM with a bit more to it
The natural heir to the JCM800 dynasty with more versatility and bigger extremes. This thing can take you from something like John Scofield through ZZTop right up to the likes of Entombed or Slayer. Always with that trademark Marshall texture, which isn't for everyone, probably... but it sure as hell is for me.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Setting with my old band was Presence at 8, Bass 10, Middel 4, Treble 6, Master Vol as needed but mostly 5, Gain at 18, Preamp 7 with a TS9 in front of it (and the occasional HM2). But currently I'm experimenting a lot with softer tones.
