I used to have a '93 1959SLP reissue that was amazing boosted with a SD1 but it was so loud it really was unusable. A few years ago I picked up a Vintage Modern 2266 halfstack. I liked it so much I sold the Plexi because the VM could do the heavy stuff and much more.

That's what I was saying in another post.

A decent Marshall head (model 1959SLP), a SD-1 and that sound is to be adored, albeit way too loud unless you are playing Giants stadium.

I've been tempted by various JMP combos and JCM 800s but I am really not sure without trying every single one of them. I also know nothing about JCM 900/2000s or other models.

I play mainly Telecasters and love that crisp, cutting, just breaking up tone. For extra gain I tend to whack on an overdrive so I don't need a massive rock monster necessarily.

Any advice or recommendations?


I'd say any Marshall built before 1990...

Stayed at my friends house during the summer he has a Marshall JVM410H
And i would say its my favorite out of all the marshalls, my second favorite would be the JCM2000 DSL !

All jokes aside
IMHO
the best Marshall is the One you left at the store.

I`ve been playing a JVM-210c that if I don`t overthink all those knobs ,it sounds decent. Allthough its heavy.
