Re: Marshall JMP production yr. 1979 Amp Trouble
The workmanship in this era of Marshall's varyed from bad to worse. I remember fixing intermittant fuse blowing problems in one 100 Watt combo, that had no solder on the power tube connections ! The amp actually worked fine and then popped fuses when it felt like. The connections were properly wrapped around each tube pin, and just never soldered at the factory !
