care & feeding of the plexi

today I fired up the JTM100 to give it some exercise ( I can't wait to move somewhere I can crank this thing regularily ) and keep the filter caps etc from drying out...it's a shame I don't use this more often

 

 

anyway I set up a mic in the room, probably not the best recording but whatever...I figured I'd at least document it...it was pretty loud, you can hear all kinds of stuff rattling around in the background :D

 

 

guitar was the 535 with Lollar's direct in, about 3/4 volume. I didn't really mess with the EQ or anything. someday I'd like to do a proper recording with this amp

Nice Marshall tone there.. !

 

If I remember correctly, you've got a nice sounding old cab that contributes to that fine tone.

ah, right I have a '68 straight 4x12....but this was going thru my JCM800 era top cab, loaded with Scumback 75Hz 50w speakers

 

plexirocker it is running real GEC KT66 output tubes x4...preamp tubes are all the original Mullards, still going strong after nearly 50 years!!

He He.. That was fun.

There is a rich fullness not in current Marshalls coming out of this amp. The harmonic content is musical, sounds great.

 

Agreed! They sure don't sound like that anymore.

That does sound great, I'm with Jeff now I want one.
