sounds good!! congrats

same here had two and sold both.

i would buy it if it sounds like a glorious jcm 800 should.

hats to you michael. sounds great.

he'd be playing old fender combos (or custom shop reissue hendrix signature blackface;) ) like he did in the studio back in the old days. oh shit its a marshall forum...

durability and tough wise I don't think so. the differences physically comes down to transformer specs and different caps. does that translate to tone difference ? I think so... but there are those who disagree.

ac dc allready sang about the 2203 in the 70's ... we should all take a listen for a reminder

I hear you. the old 2203 roar like a lion. when you struck an A chord with a good les paul no amp can match that unmistakable roar. the boutique can try but its never quite right.

its a fantasy mate they can't really recreate those boards and trannies.

the mass production is going in another direction and away basically from the monster power amps of yesterday. think small, low wattage and digital...that sucks but that's reality...boutique low wattage tube amps is the buzz and the need/ crave for big amps is turning into niche. that said I...

in a nut shell... modern products are disposable as company mission is to sell as many ... old manufacturing rule of thumb was build to last.

I had both at the same time..same circuit but the sl sounded a little more bassy... the original silver sounded better when turned up loud. slash used the silver one from 1987 for all live work and the albums after appetite.

for the use your illusions it was the jubilee or the spaghetti incident I am not sure

those tubes made my 2204 sound godly ...once I changed the tubes to modern the tone was gone. I mean it sounded like a 2204 but the magic was gone. would really like to hear your experience with these.

.

you got a gem right there. they dont built em like that anymore. talking about speakers they sound best with g 12 -65's .

people don't know this but lots of old recordings were done with a mark 1 thinking its a marshall

early boogies like the mark 1 's are epic... reissues and originals

'] I like that garage man. in some places a quarantine is not a punishment [/URL]

its a heavy son of a bitch but a tone to die for. congrats! I regret selling mine.
