Just had it brought over. Have it on a week trial period. If I want it I get it for $800. I don't think that is too bad really. It has a Rich mod master volume installed, whatever that is, it seems to work well. Also has an efx loop installed.

Did a really quick recording of it. How do you guys like it? This isn't shred, so don't expect it. It is purely classic rock style playing.

Edit: I forgot to mention, it has a bit of Maxon OD808 in front. Not a lot but enough to get a bit more... How shall I say it? OOMPH?
 
Me likey! That amp sounds like it can eat nails! That's definitely a good thing!

Thanks much Dale! It has a big round bottom end and it is very throaty sounding to me... I really dig it so far.

Thanks Adam! Really thinking hard about it. I can only buy one amp this year it looks like so, I have to be really careful about what I get...lol
This thing will do the Slash type sound in spades though. Even if it isn't
a JCM 800 I can sure get that vibe out of it!

The amp is very throaty and smooth when you dial it in right. I am afeared
that it won't suit everything I like to do but I do have the Axe-FX for all the modern sounds I want and with the efx loop, this will make a great
power amp for it!

Olaf,
You know me, I am a sucker for old Marshalls. Period...lol
I am sitting here playing some Thin Lizzy now and this amp
NAILS "The Cowboy Song" tone! That is always a GREAT thing
for me!

I really like it a bunch. I have never owned a JMP. Only Plexi's and 800s.
So far I really dig this thing. We will see how it stands up to faster playing
as the week goes on. I am not in a fast playing mood today...lol

Ever get that way?

Ya know, I think I am going to try to get 'em to work that song in for the
Wed. gig... It is such a fun song to play along with "Jailbreak"!

See, that is the difference between you and I. You have tasty chops and can get away with it. Me on the other hand, I have to throw something wanky in to try and fill in for my lack of melodic skills!
