« Marshall JTM30 »

PART EXCHANGED MY JTM30 FOR A LANEY AOR50 & CAB(TOO HEAVY ROCK FOR BLUES!!) AT A GOOD SHOP IN FOLKESTONE, ENGLAND IN MARCH 2002.
NOT A VERY HEAVY AMP, WEIGHT-WISE. SUPERB SOUND ON CLEAN CHANNEL. IT OVERDRIVES BEAUTIFULLY WHEN CRANKED UP. OVERDRIVE CHANNEL IS FABULOUS. NOT A BAD SOUND TO BE HAD!! IT IS VERY LOUD FOR A 30 WATTER. I ALSO HAVE A PEAVEY CLASSIC 30 - NO CONTEST!! THE MARSHALL SOUNDS LIKE A SMALL STACK WHEN PUSHED. HAVE USED IT FOR A FEW OUTDOOR GIGS AND IT COPES EASILY. MY BIG RIG IS A LANEY WORLD SERIES 100 WATT BEAST. 30 YEARS OLD AND STILL STEAMIN'!!

ANYWAY THE JTM SOUNDS GOOD AT ALL SETTINGS AND VOLUMES A BARGAIN AT £350(INC. P/EX ON LANEY). IF YOU SEE ONE....GRAB IT!!!!!

DISLIKES..MMMM..DIFFICULT..MAYBE THE SINGLE EQ FOR BOTH CHANNELS. BUT THAT'S WHAT YOU WILL GET WITH MOST VALVE COMBOS UNDER £400

NOT TOO HEAVY BUT VERY SOLID. USUAL MARSHALL QUALITY. COVERED IN A BROWNISH/DARK GREY VINYL...VERY TASTY. CONTROLS EASY AND VERSATILE.

IF YOU BUY A SMALL VALVE COMBO, MAKE SURE IT'S THIS ONE!!
