ryan_waf Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 1981 MARSHALL JCM 800 I recently bought this off someone from here, and it is a beautiful amp - but it just doesn't suit my style of heavy gain playing like I get with my Tech 21. Would love to keep it as a studio amp, but sadly the money is much needed instead right now. It was recently serviced and revalved just before I bought it, and have been using it a few times a week and never had a problem with it (SLIGHT pot crackle when you turn the knobs, which settles after a few seconds - not bad for an amp from '81). I'm hoping for around £375+courier fees (or you can collect for free) - comes with a great flight case too. I've been told it also works great as a guitar amp, if you're into that kind of thing. I've also got this 2 channel Mars Real Sound pre amp that works great in front of this amp (can use it as your DI), cost me £99 a few weeks ago but will knock some money off if you buy it all together - all the tech details on this can be found here: [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mars-Real-Sound-Bass-Professional-Component-Bass-Guitar-Pre-amp-w-Effects-Loop-/200755693804?pt=UK_Guitar_Accessories&hash=item2ebdf8c8ec#ht_1752wt_789"]http://www.ebay.co.u...c#ht_1752wt_789[/url] I'll sell the lot for £440+courier fees or you can collect for free (or i can deliver within a reasonable distance for petrol money). PM if you're interested. Cheers, Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassman Steve Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Ah, I was thinking of my nephew but being Pompey based may be a difficulty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matte_black Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Marshall still available? Does it work with 8ohm cabs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan_waf Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 Hi Matt, It's been put on ebay (as some very kind chap on here advised me to do!) - but yeah, it does work with 8ohm cabs, and 4, and a few others - it's got a selector dial on the back which is amazing. If you want to see the ebay link, it's here, just less than 2 days left. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1981-Marshall-JCM-800-Bass-Series-Valve-Amp-Head-/170876307812?pt=UK_MusicalInstr_Amplifiers_RL&hash=item27c9058964 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
