Marshall JCM800 2203 Vintage 100W Tube Head Amp

Definitive. Classic. Legendary. This is the amp that shaped a generation, and is the sound most think of when they think of rock, hard rock, metal and grunge. With the pre amp on about 2, your clean tone sounds like it is vibrating a metal tray covered in broken glass, just beautiful crisp and a little raw. Turn that dial and you go from a little raw to a big roar. I love turning this amp up to about 5, keeping the pre amp at about 2. The push from the air in front of the cab is far more rewarding and defined than the one coming from the kick drum. At home, bringing the volume up to where it JUST comes through to the speakers, guarantees a very rewarding 30 - 45 seconds of playing before the house and the neighbours get a bit wild.

This is by far the best amp you could possible ever have in my eyes. To think guitar center sold it to me half off, because "Vintage is the same thing as used". I'd prefer it be vintage. So damn loud too. I can't get past 2.25 before my windows start shaking.

I really dig into this amp! Real punchy rock n roll tones!

This amp is a beast. Loud and tone monster, plug and start rocking without any bullshit

He showed this in his room on top of his amplifier

Have this in a custom Verellen mod from 2010, used on a few Pelican records

One of best amps ever, real beast!

I simply love this amp a whole lot, goes from bluesy cleans all the way to 80's Metal. This amp is brutal and unforgiving, you need to learn how to play with the amp, because you hear every single mistake you make. But once you get to know the amp, you'll love it.

Love the sound of it been using this in studios.
