I'd never flame you for that, to a certain extent I agree. I had an old JMP previous to this and liked the older look. Trust me, this one was beat up pretty bad on the outside and beyond the mojo factor. Look at that thing! :lol: :LOL: Didn't know Blackmore used these, I'll have to check it out. Thanks.

Looks awesome. I was thinking of white tolex for my JVM, does the guy also sell headshells?

Thanks. Yeah, Jerry at vintageheadbox.com will set you up. He makes great head boxes.

Those white stacks look awesome, Blackmore is tearing it up too. Never really gave him a good listen, might have to reconsider. :yes:

Looks great! The before pic looks a lot like my JMP.

It might have been, not sure what the chain of ownership was unless you mean your current JMP :lol: :LOL: . I got it from piccasochild. Needed a couple of easy fixes to get it back to stock. One power tube wasn't working because of a bad resistor and a cap wasn't grounded. After that it sang and smokes pretty good now with the new mod.

They're beautiful, even in this condition. Ok maybe not beautiful. :lol: :LOL: Only gear whores can love an amp like that, its like your kid!
 
I love beat up old Marshalls. But that looks beautiful. Hum, could he do my recto solo head?

Nope, still have mine. The funny thing is, mine has some engraving on the back, some of which was there when I bought it in 82. I used an engraver to scratch all that out and put my name on the back. Point being, it's in the same spot where it looks like something got scratched out on yours. Funny...

Bob,

Nice playing, amp sounds great. I hate when people engrave anything on a Marshall and then scrape it off. I guess that's better than having some jokers name on the back. How does that Bogner sound? :lol: :LOL:

I like it, but I would have to have matching 4x12's for it as well.

Dave,

Don't think that isn't going through my head!! It does look pretty good on the BX cab but the randy mojo would be in full force with the half stack for sure.
