This is me jammin out with my old band through my JCM 900 4100 model (my baby, I personally modded the gain structure, she sounds f#$%&*# killer!!). The other pic is of both my 4100 and my 2100 SL-X sitting at idle in my bedroom. I love both of these amps! Thanks Marshall for giving me the tone I desire!!

A Dream Come True

A Dream Come True

As a child, I dreamed of being a famous musician and having a wall of Marshalls behind me. Well, it's many years later, and while I may not be famous to the rest of the world, I am a rockstar to my two children. I have also built that wall of Marshalls I so often dreamed of. My search for the perfect tone came to and end when the JVM410H punched me in the chest, The JVM fills all of my musical needs, and then some, so it's only fitting that they power the wall that now stands behind me. A dream come true. Thank you Marshall.

Fatten The Bass

Fatten The Bass

Attached is a picture of my model 1987 (big box 50 watt) I purchased new in 1973. I recently re-capped it and changed a few parts on the circuit board to convert it to a "Bass" amp...perfect for fattening up a Strat!
The cabinet is a model 1936 I have had since purchasing it new in 1976. I recently recovered the cabinet and replaced the original Eminence speakers with a new pair of Celestion V-30's. It's an awesome sounding rig I hope to use for many more years.

Old Marshalls Never Die

Old Marshalls Never Die

Here is my old Marshall 2203 with a friends daughter over 20 years ago. This is so old that the cab is a pre JCM800 1960a. I really did enjoy the amp and it went to many gigs with me from the UK to the Far East and all over the US.

More To Come

More To Come

Hi to everyone at Marshall,
I was in here before under “Mode Four Mad”, now I want to show you my new rig. There will definitely be more amps coming in the future, but only Marshalls. The Grill on the Mode 4 was silver, but I had a light built into the amp. Now I painted the grill black and took the light back out. On the JVM and JCM800 Lead Cab (from 1989) I have replaced the Marshall logo with the stainless steel logo from the Mode Four series.
Thanks for designing and building these great amps, they are more than just tools of the trade, they really are inspiring.

Perfect Combo

Perfect Combo

Had a Plexi and a marshall 4*12 in the eighties. I regretted having sold them ever since. Now I have a JVM 410 with 1960a. And with the Les Pauls, it makes the perfect combo.

Cheers!
