rb | Marshall JCM-800 50 watt top; any good? I am considering getting a late 1980s JCM-800 50 watt master volume head. Want to use for chunky blues rhythm sound for blues at low to mid club levels. I know the master volumes usually kill your tone, especially the clarity and presence. I am less concerned about the lead tone since I use a tube screamer for solos. Planning to run this head thru my 4X10 marshall cabinet. Pls comment about the sound of these amps, as well as the reliability. I am pretty spoiled by my BF Fenders, which are pretty bulletproof! Tx!! |
