MARSHALL 1969?70 JMP Model 1987 Head, 50 W [S/A 3945A] (09/22)
A 1969?70 Marshall JMP Model 1987 50W Head has arrived!
On July 7, 1960, he opened a family-run music store called gJim Marshall and Sonh with his family at 76 Axbridge Road in Hanwell, London, initially selling a variety of musical instruments.The shop attracted many musicians as customers, including Pete Townshend, guitarist for The Who; Ritchie Blackmore; John Entwistle; Big Jim Sullivan, a friend of Terry's; and Keith Moon, who discovered the shop through one of Jim's drum students.
Around 1962, the gJTM45h?based on the Tweed-era Fender Bassman?quickly gained popularity. Since the amplifiers of that era lacked sufficient volume, Pete Townshend requested a more powerful model, leading to the creation of the gModel 1959 ePlexi'h around 1965.
This unit is the gModel 1987 Head,h which hit the market the following year in 1966. With an output of 50W, it has gained popularity today as a model that delivers Marshall-style distortion at a moderate volume.
Although various specification changes were made after its release, this unit uses two 6CA7 (EL34) tubes and three 12AX7B tubes.
When the owner acquired it, the circuitry had apparently been modified to be similar to Fender's design; however, it was recently restored to its original circuit configuration at our workshop, which involved replacing some capacitors and resistors, as well as re-soldering certain connections.
The potentiometers, main transformer, indicator lamp, tube sockets, handle, and some screws have been replaced. As part of the recent circuit restoration, the unit has been fully overhauled and is now ready to deliver exceptional sound.
Additionally, although the details are unclear, the label on the chassis has peeled off and is illegible; however, gKurt James 11-28-89h has been written over it, leading us to speculate that the circuit was modified in 1989.
The Tolex is black, but there are traces indicating it was previously painted orange and then painted black over that.
Based on the serial number gS/A,h this is a 50W model; the g3945Ah indicates it was manufactured in 1969?70, with this specific unit being number 3945.
A 1969?70 Marshall 1987 that can be used for all genres and is highly regarded for its outstanding sound! Be sure to check it out!
