Vintage Tube Amp

1977 Marshall JMP Mk II Master Model 100 Watt Vintage Tube Amp & 4×12, Red Tolex

Up for sale, a 1977 Marshall JMP 2203 Master Model 100w head and matching 1960A 4×12 speaker cabinet in excellent condition and in perfect working order. Acquired from the private collection of esteemed amp builder Mike Soldano, this 2203 chassis has been fitted into a vintage 50w Marshall head cabinet. Featuring original custom color red tolex on both the head and speaker box, this visually and sonically stunning Marshall is dialed in to perfection with a quad of matched vintage Sylvania EL34 power tubes. One of the first Marshalls to feature the pre-phase inverter Master Volume circuit, this design allows the preamp to saturate and deliver searing crunch at club-friendly volumes. Of course the amp really excels when you dial up both the preamp gain and volume for a thick crunch synonymous with early AC/DC records. The circuit is clean and stock, with original Drake transformers. The chart on the chassis has a handwritten October, 1977 test date. In addition to the Sylvania power tubes, the amp features a combination of modern and vintage preamp valves. The chassis itself is remarkably clean, with a near flawless faceplate and all original knobs intact. The speaker cabinet is loaded with the original Celestion G12M 25 watt Black Back quad, and the speakers each have clean “HL9″ date stamps on the frames and “1777″ stamped original cones. The original red elephant tolex is intact on both the head and cab, with the original pair of large plastic Marshall logos as well as black plastic corners and handles. All of the original piping is intact, along with the original sprung amp feet. Naturally the head and cab have some scuffs and minor tears around the enclosure edges, but overall this set is particularly well-kept. The original back panel for the 50w head enclosure is also included, although it no longer mounts, given the size of the 100w chassis currently in the head box. This is a truly remarkable vintage Marshall with the iconic Master Model sound. Check out our shop “Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar, ” and please let us know if we can answer any questions!
