Just scored my second Modded Marshall from Brian / Screamindemon here on the forum. I purchased a modded Metro Plexi build from Brian 7 or maybe 8 years ago and it is hands down the best sounding amp I have ever owned. Several heads have come and gone through the stable since acquiring the modded Plexi and nothing else has risen to 'keeper' status.
Shortly after snagging his Plexi build, he listed a 2203x that he modded and I just wasn't in a position to snap it up. I 'think' he reconsidered and decided to keep that amp. Well, that's the amp that he listed in the classifieds here a week or 2 ago, and I wasn't going to miss out on it twice. It arrived today - bulletproof packing - and I could not be happier. I ran it through the paces and it just sounds incredible. Very similar to the Plexi - which I love - but definitely brings its own slightly more modern flavor to the table. So many options - all of them 'usable.' Ultra low noise, transparent loop, and tone for days. I will need to get it dialed in (which will be the easy part) and then try to get my chops warmed up enough (that's the challenging part) to do the amp justice with a few clips. I told Brian it has the core tone of a truly great Marshall, all the slippery, greasy 'fun to play' feel of a Cameron / Gower and all the articulation and string separation of a VHT / Fryette. I'm not sure how he does it, but I'm glad he does!
These are the pics from the classified listing. I need to shoot a few of it in its new home with its long lost Plexi sibling. I'm stoked.
