... is coming to my place soon! ;)

What Marshall amp sports 8 (yes EIGHT) 6550/KT88s, 3 ecc83s and 1 ecc81 and pumps out a kidney shattering, spleen melting, 400 watts of pure tube goodness?

THIS!!!!

I've been hearing a lot of great things about these monsters, and my curiosity got seriously piqued, so I pulled the trigger, and have one on the way. I really can't wait to hear it plugged into my JCM800 Bass cabs!!!! Should give the speakers a good workout! :D

Cheers!

looks great and i'm sure you'll love it.

could you please do some youtube clips of you playing it? solo if at all possible.

i am thinking of getting my son a tube amp and although these are expensive, they are on my list (which also includes an ampeg heritage SVT and a vintage Sunn amp, maybe a 2000s or a model T)

I'll see what I can do once I receive it.

Did you score yours on ebay last night? I put a bid in early on it but decided to wait. Let us know how you like it, I'd really like to have one!!

Yeah, I did. It went a little higher than I'd hoped it would, but was still well under my max (and less than half what a new one would cost me). I really can't wait to get it and fire it up! :D :hyper:

Cheers!

There's a band around here that has used one of these (or at least something that looks very similar) for years, and they've always had the biggest baddest bass tone around. I'm really hoping you don't let that thing go to waste.

Oh, I won't. We play at one volume: FULL! Hehehe... well, not really, but we do go by the Motorhead handbook regarding volume! :D

The amp will be on it's way by tomorrow, and in my hands by early next week. I can't WAIT!!! :hyper:

Cheers!
