you-tube videos sound promising! Seems to nail that classic Marshall tone. All tube, and with used gear prices starting to skyrocket, hope it’ll be a future collectible.
 
Straight in that amp reminds of a crunchy 80s ZZ TOP crunch. Can get close to a Slayer thrashy . It’s definitely great for AC/DC crunch too. My student brought while half stack in one day

There some some diode clipping in the circuit

I liked the sound of the gain maxed on the clean channel. Seemed more usable than the gain on the dirty, which is probably the diode clipping like you said.

I had a JTM30. I don’t want to burst your bubble, but it was so bad I gave it to an ex girlfriend that burnt my home down. Swear to god….that’s true.

I had a 60 LONG ago in the mid 90s....failed on me multiple times. I forget what the problem was but it's something to check out; I believe it was chronic to the mid 90s versions.

Not at all. There’s a reason they are still cheap. I appreciate the heads up.
