Offered for sale;

Used 1984 Marshall JCM 800 Master Model 2204, 50-watt MK II Lead serial number S04975.

This amp head is in excellent condition, fully functional and cosmetically clean.

The JCM 800 series was introduced in 1981. Although models 2203 and 2204 had been in production since 1975, they were reintroduced as JCM800 amplifiers in '81. The JCM800 amplifiers became a staple of 1980s hard rock and heavy metal bands.

These were the second series of Marshalls equipped with a master volume, which allowed for more distortion at lower volumes. The JCM800 is considered a "hot" amplifier because it has more gain stages than comparable amplifiers, and in "lead" mode, in the "high" input, an extra triode provides extra gain to the pre-amplifier, which really added to the highly driven rock sound.

Cosmetically the JCM 800 changed with front and rear panels and chassis that extended all the way across the bottom of the amplifier heads, and its larger logo created the basic Marshall look that continues with current models.

Raw urgency with tonal richness like no other.

Great amp, timeless design, strong powerful sound!

*Please note: we do our best giving descriptions of used pieces. We have found it impossible to describe every mark on an instrument or amp that is not in the "mint" category. Also, what's important to you may not be important to someone else. For example, you may say, "I don't care what it looks like as long as it plays or sounds well." Another person may say, "Body cosmetics are very important to me so tell me about every scratch, nick and blemish." So, please ask the questions that are most important to you. If you ask they will be answered. They are free and there's no limit. Additional photos can also be made available.
