Michael Tousek	Re: JCM 2000 schematics Hey Tonefactor, I'm curious about the circuit design of the JCM-2000 Marshalls. Could you be persuaded to give a brief rundown of what the different channels look like? Like, is the "vintage" channel basically a tweaked 2204 Master Volume circuit? Do the other channels use diode clipping and/or op-amps? Is it full of cathode-followers like the 30th Anniversary model? Any interesting design tweaks? I think the 2000's sound sweet and have been racked with curiosity since they came out. Big thanks, Michael Tousek
