But this old house hasn't get (don't owns)the ground connection (or ground cable).
So,when we play,our amps have get noise.
This place for our jams is provisional but drop the subject of noise,I would like to know about if our vintage tube amps could been damage from play with this no ground way.Could they fry? ]]> The Workbench Reginald http://www.marshallforum.com/workbench/9619-house-without-ground-connection.html http://www.marshallforum.com/marshall-amps/9618-new-amp-under-250-a.html Sat, 21 Nov 2009 09:56:00 GMT hey, i'm looking for a new amp and i have a very small budget, im looking for an indie/rock/punk sound i:e kooks, libertines, clash, i need this amp for small gigs and practice, my 30watt MG is perfect volume for what i need it for, just had it for way too long and bored of it. i have found a bugera v22 which looks nice, in my price range, heard some good things about it, and some bad. and a lanley vc30, surposed to sound like a vox ac30?... so can anyone here help me? thanks VT ]]> Marshall Amps VintageTone http://www.marshallforum.com/marshall-amps/9618-new-amp-under-250-a.html http://www.marshallforum.com/marshall-amps/9617-79-jmp-mk2-100w.html Sat, 21 Nov 2009 04:39:05 GMT Hi Folks,

I just picked up this 79 JMP 100W and cannot find anywhere what circuit it is. It has been modified, but I am curious to know the model #. It's a master volume, US (6550s), SL/A 08298L. It has all Drakes in it, a few extra holes in the chassis. Sounds pretty good without having gone through it yet. Am I to assume it's a 2203?

Here's one so/so picture.

I am new here, but not new to amps. Some of you may know me from the amp garage forum or the old 18watt.com.

Anyway, I have a couple of 1960 lead cabs that I would like to know more about. I am not a Marshall expert (even that it is my middle name), so can anyone here help me?

Fawn 1960 Lead 100W



6 rivet plastic handles, plastic corner pieces, non-original speakers. I believe it's late 70s, but need verification.

Checkerboard 1960 Lead



Metal handles on this one. No speakers when I bought it, but it has 4 Fane AXAs in it now.

Can you experts help my date these please? ]]> dartanion http://www.marshallforum.com/cabinets-speakers/9616-couple-1960-lead-cabs.html http://www.marshallforum.com/marshall-amps/9615-help-me-please-marshall-manual-mode-problem.html Sat, 21 Nov 2009 01:50:43 GMT ok maybe im stupid or something but i purchased a marshall amp mg 30 fx and it has both manual and preset mode and i can play preset perfectly fine but when i change the amp to manual mode the amp produces absolutly 0 sound.I have no idea why is this .I already tried moving all the knobs I already restored default setting and still no sound.help me if you can i dont know what to do ok maybe im stupid or something but i purchased a marshall amp mg 30 fx and it has both manual and preset mode and i can play preset perfectly fine but when i change the amp to manual mode the amp produces absolutly 0 sound.I have no idea why is this .I already tried moving all the knobs I already restored default setting and still no sound.help me if you can i dont know what to do ]]> Marshall Amps marco9231 http://www.marshallforum.com/marshall-amps/9615-help-me-please-marshall-manual-mode-problem.html http://www.marshallforum.com/tone-zone/9614-jvm410h-pod-xt-live.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 23:11:36 GMT Hi guys!

My first post so here goes!!
I've just purchased the JVM410H and run it through a 1960A cab.
The amp, as you guys probably already know, absolutely ROCKS!!!!
I also have a POD XT LIVE floor effects processor and am currently running it through the front input of my JVM which sounds kinda watered down and pale. I tried to use the FX loop at the back but either I'm not connecting it wrong or it sounds terrible, as in uncontrollable!! What I'm trying to achieve is to add a bit of chorus and delay, but I find especially the delay really difficult to control between clean and OD channels. Any ideas?? Or should I just buy a TC G Force rack!?!? They sound amazing!!!

Thanks ]]> The Tone Zone spaceboogie http://www.marshallforum.com/tone-zone/9614-jvm410h-pod-xt-live.html http://www.marshallforum.com/marshall-amps/9613-plexi-1959slpx-vs-1987xl.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:28:17 GMT I am thinking of buying a 100 watt plexi reissue. Effects loop is a must for attenuation using an Alesis Quadraverb for volume control, reverb and delay. I own the 50 watt 1987xl and love it for what it does. My question is simply, what if any difference is there in tone and character between the 50 and 100 watt plexis? Thanks.

I picked up a 3.5mm - 3.5mm cable and a mini-jack-to-big-jack, and I was away. I had my Marshall as speakers for my Mac. Brilliant.

The only problem I've found, is that there's no pan at all. This wouldn't ordinarily be a massive problem, but whenever something is panned hard left, it ends up just being really quiet. Is there any way to either a) achieve a decent pan with my speakers, or b) just kill the pan completely and have a mono signal coming through?

Thanks in advance. ]]> The Workbench MHMaddo http://www.marshallforum.com/workbench/9611-marshall-into-speakers.html http://www.marshallforum.com/member-classifieds/9610-fs-marshall-jcm-2000-dsl-50-a.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:04:00 GMT Hi guys, I'm looking to sell off one of my amps, to pay for metro amp kit.

First post, first introduction.

I'm from France and owned some Marshall (2 Studio '15) amps. Now for my practice I have a TM30 but I'm looking for the Class5.

Hope to see you guys in some posts !

So like 1 1/2 months ago I replaced the tubes and re-biased, then the amp died a couple days later. The issue was W19's spade terminal and broken.

I resoldered it, but since I didn't have a new spade terminal it was probably not a good solder.

So in the past 2 weeks the amp would work, for say 5 minutes, then fade out, then start working again a few minutes later. I suspected a loose wire.

I ordered new spade terminals, and I replaced W19 and W20 and checked all other wires.

Now I fired the amp back up, and I blew the mains fuse. I rechecked my wiring, it looks correct, I did label each wire prior. So I replaced the fuse.

The amp powers on, but none of the tubes glow, and also, the channel selection lights are not on (no green/red/yellow).

I rechecked the marshall wiring schematic, but one wire on the mains and one on the transformer near the mains looks wrong in the scematic. I have seen photos of other DSL401's, and i compared my wiring and mine looks correct.

Does anyone have an ideas on what would cause just the mains to power on (i replaced fuses as well).

I was thinking either the onboard fuse OR the rectifier.

My amp is from 2002 and yes it did overheat. I actuallt put a heatsink on the rectifier just this past sunday because I thought thats why it was fading.

ANY advice would be appreciated! ]]> The Workbench dsheehan2005 http://www.marshallforum.com/workbench/9602-dsl401-no-sound-no-glow-fading-out.html
