Okay I know both amps are insanely loud, I'll state that out of the gate. I am curious though if people know or could recommend amp companies that build replicas/clones of a JTM 45/100 or a Marshal Major? I played a JTM45/100 once and holy crap was it amazing. Don't have that kind of cash to drop on one though (let alone find one). I know of Germino and Metropoulos.

I know the Divided by 13 RSA23 (or BTR23) is loosely based on a Major, but it breaks up really quickly so no clean option really (by design though).

Thanks in advance.
 
I'm not aware of anyone who builds a Major clone (nor have I ever seen one), but as for a JTM45/100...

I've had him build me two Marshall style amps - a JTM45 and a '68 spec Super Lead... both of which are unbelievable amps. I'd put the '68 up there with my original one.

He can dial them in how you want as well. I told him what I wanted from these amps, and he got both of them right the first time.
 
Wow, that builds look intense. Winding his own transformers.
