I grew up in Honolulu. I bought a Marshall 4x10 combo amp in a pawnshop in Hollywood in the late 70s. The chassis inspection sticker was dated 1967. I traded it to a friend of mine for an early 70s 50W head and 4x12 cabinet which came with me to Florida when I moved. My friend was one of 2 Marshall collectors I knew in Honolulu. Both rented out rigs for concerts and I used his 100W heads and double stacked 4x12 cabinets when I played in the arena there in the early 80s. I also heard of another Marshall collector there, so finding an old Marshall in Hawaii is not so far fetched. My friend died in 2019 and I don't know what happened to his collection.

3 years late, but the JTMs aren’t usually what comes to mind when someone says plexi. They’re mostly referring to the JMP and Super Lead models. The JTM amps are certainly still plexis, but their sound is a kind of middle ground between the old Fender Tweed sound and the Marshall sound.

I've seen him play on some of his video and obviously he was good but he rose to the occasion of having that killer amp that's older than him or I. If that amp could talk. Oh wait, it was channeling its stories through Brad in the universal language of jamming on a guitar.

Thanks for the interesting video. I have seen and identical one that used to have a GZ34 but now has a solid-state rectifier. It looks as though something got very hot (the mains transformer) and vaporised varnish all over the inside. The extra resistor on the impedance selector is to lower the negative feedback fraction around the driver and output stage. Without this, this amp will oscillate at 100 kHz at full power - blowing any tweeters if you ever have any, but sometimes described as fizz, as you will have created a Class-D amplifier with lots of intermodulation! The original feedback resistor is 27K, but later models had 100K to lower the feedback, so I added 47 k and the amp was stable for all settings of the Presence control(with some effect of the treble, but that's not in the feedback loop). For those who like feedback theory, this is called gain compensation. An idea for setting up the bias from the mains power draw, could you turn off the Standby and see what the difference is? Most of the power difference will be going to the output tubes (minus maybe 6 mA x 440 V to the ECC83s = 2.64 W). Perhaps I skipped over you doing this? For the IEC connector - just mount it behind the original Bulgin hole, so you won't have to drill anything. I am sure this is why the IEC was designed as it is. Nice playing BTW. Cheers

Lots of military there Brad. Back in the mid 70s when I was in, there guys I knew who had rigs, you wouldn't believe. Of course going overseas one could get MONSTER equipment (stereos, instruments, amps, etc) in the PX/BX with no taxes, import tariffs, etc, etc.(Never saw Marshall equipment in the Base exchanges though). A friend bought a Strat in 1982, when I worked in Korea (DoD contractor, but we had full access to everything on base), he picked it up for around half of what cost here. When I was in the military, I saw guys with Nakamichi(spelling?)stereos. One guy bought 1 of their under dash car cassette decks at Subic Bay BX, it cost $1200 there. I can't imagine what they cost at regular retail.(I hadn't heard of them, but I was informed, they were pretty much the BEST stereo equip on the planet. Any way, in the 60s & early 70s you could pick up old used Fender tweeds, etc for less than $50. Any way, just thought I'd throw that in, I actually knew sailors in mid 70s that had full Marshall stacks, & other mythical equipment.(I know I'm showing my age, but hey I'll admit to being "legal age" as my mom used to say) Hope you're doing well.

Beautiful history lesson here Brad!! What a cool amp! I actually got lucky at my last job and found a couple heating elements from commercial coffee brewers that are exactly 8 ohms each, so I can wire them at 16, 8, or 4 ohms depending on what I'm testing. They have nichrome coils inside, and when I pump enough watts into them, you can hear some sound coming from them 😁 Also, since they are heating elements I can use water as a heat sink if I need to do a long test. (I had an old solid state Peavey that was overheating, so I ran signal through it at a high level to test after I fixed it)

In the UK amps like this are converted to the EIC 3 pin kettle lead and have been for many years now . These are Bulgin sockets and we're OK for sometime but have nowhere near the insertion rate of the later 3 pin sockets . Replace this with a Bulging EIC for a couple of quid . Phone Marshall UK and ask them for a US 3 pin kettle lead and they will probably send one for nothing. I have done this many times here, but they may charge a few quid for shipping but it will be a stock lead that Marshall uses . It doesn't have as much effect on the value of the amp as you may expect . The EIC socket is 40mm between fixing centres and normally these are fitted straight into the hole and uses 2 3mm countersunk screws and nuts to hold the socket in . Keep the original parts of course .

I've been watching your videos for some time now and I must say your riffin on this one is impressive. If ever in the Detroit area we need to get together and jam!!!!

No way would I pay that much, but apparently someone loved the sound enough. I learn a whole new thing besides playing from you. And yeah, you can play pretty good too.

I had a similar problem with a marshall amp I had years ago with that same plug. What I did was wrapped the post in guitar shielding copper tape the adhesive is conductive so no problem there, I wrapped each pin a few times until it had a snug fit and it worked fine

Well now we know why those older Belden A/C cables were changed out for newer more reliable style cables..BUT In the end, even if its now really your kind of amplifier. It sounded good. When us old guys who have played Marshall amplification. We always start off with that huge open A and let it ring forever until it goes into feedback. And judge if the amp has THAT MARSHALL SOUND. We need to feel that chunked A chord in our chest. If its right youll feel it right between your pecs. Saying that, playing some lead work fallows. And in all my Marshall amps ownership, its thise hangin lead notes that have made me buy AND use during my own rockstar carreer 76-85. Modern guitarists dont know the intricacies of handling 1)volume 2)feedback 3) true amp made tone and soundman be damned.. Great video Brad. I just picked up an old Melody maker, I'll be feeding thru my jmp 1987 from1976. Its time to ROCK again....DK
