This is a Marshall 2245 JTM45 MKII Reissue 30-Watt Amplifier!
The amp normally comes stock with three ECC83 preamp tubes, two KT66 power tubes, and 1 GZ34 rectifier. This amp comes with all of the above, except for 6L6 power tubes in place of the KT66 ones. I have linked a video below that I enjoy comparing a JTM45 with 6L6 vs KT66 power section tubes.
Condition wise, there are a few spots where the tough vinyl tolex has some wear, or dust that can be wiped down and remedied in any way the gear forums may argue. Most notably, as pictured on the top right edge of the amp, there is a region where the tolex it is ever-so-slightly pulling back, a small opening tear, a couple of inches long maximum.
The serial number dates this amp back to the year 2000. I was checking this for the listing out of curiosity, and I had a hard time believing! She's over 20 years old and is still crystal clear. (This is the telltale that I am not the original owner of this amp.)
This amp plays extremely well and as you may have heard, is a phenomenal pedal platform. Don't let 30 Watts fool you, as opposed to 50 or greater... It is LOUD! Think Cream's Eric Clapton, Fleetwood Mac's Peter Green, both of their tones with John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, The Who's Pete Townshend, and of course Jimi Hendrix!!! Those guys are loud, but have some of the top guitar tones of all time.
