This was my first tube amp and had the bias drifting issue then eventually died entirely even after a trip to the shop. Wound up losing in a move shortly after.

I'm super tempted to pick another one up just to see how it feels now that I actually know what I'm doing lol.

Grab one while they are cheap! Get one that was made in 2004 to 2009

I am not a tech guy by any means but I think you can get new boards or have a tech bypass the the bias circuit or something like that to avoid the hot area of the board or something to that effect

That amp and 75 watt Marshall 4x12’s are the cheapest back line rentals on the planet. Crank them up and get a good sound man and your golden
Yup good sound no matter what your looking for...... plexi sound.....80's metal.....modern metal (with right pedals) and beautiful cleans. My fave speakers with it are uk greenbacks.

Definitely keep an eye on the years. That bias drift issue is a bummer, as it will eventually eat itself. The only solution is a new PCB, and Marshall stopped making them. I couldn't find any in stock at the end of last year. Last I knew, this guy was working on something.
