The brown truck arrived with my new amp - Marshall JCM 800 2204 (˙82). It sounds amazing and it is LOUD! :thumbsup: It needs new tubes though (still original ones in there) and I´ll probably change the caps too (I am looking for RFT el34 or Svetlana =c= winged, I hope I find either of these locally for a decent price - thanks to Olaf for advice!). This amp is a keeper that´s for sure...Pics:

congrats, nice looking amp, I'm sure it sounds killer!
 
I have the exact same amp (82 2204), and that one you got is clean! Mine has gone thru hell and back with various mods and stuff.. it now has a Metroamp PTP board inside as the PCB traces ended up dying.

Great amp! :rock:
 
Thanks for the comments! I thought it would have less gain, according to what I´ve been reading on various forums, but It has enough gain for 80s hard rock/metal without a boost pedal. Can´t wait to play it at the rehersals tommorow.
 
I love my '84 2204! After I change the power tubes, it may end up going back on the stage for a few shows (the Splawn has taken over for the last year or two)!
 
I also have the same amp, same year. But mine is no where near that clean. Probably will be in the family a long time.
