Very Good
$6,995
+$150Shipping
Very nice and rare late 1965 to early Marshall amp head in very good condition and sounding amazing. Mostly original with the exception of the replacement of the electrolytic capacitors with high quality new and a replacement front logo. Has vintage Genalex KT66 output tubes. The other tubes are various vintage British brands. All tubes test strong on my tube tester. North America style power cord so this amp is plug and play ready. The usual rips and tolex damages from age but overall very nice plexi amp.

Overview

The JTM45 was the first Marshall amplifier, and essentially remains as the end-all-be-all for collectors and tone-crazed guitar slingers alike. The highly sought-after Marshall JTM45 MK II amplifiers rocked the world when they were introduced in 1963 after a short run of garage-built prototypes. Electronically, these early Marshalls are basically clones of the 1959 Fender Bassman amp, but the use of different preamp (ECC83) and power amp (5881 or KT66) tubes in the JTM45 gave them a raucous, present voice all their own.
