I found mine on GC.com for way less than 1K, vertical input 82. Has a loop though and some small circuit mods that give it a ton more low end. Smoother gain too. I put an SD1 or a OD1X in front and its simply as good as any modded Marshall I've had. I keep thinking I'm gonna send it to someone for a real mod but it doesn't need one. Yours looks built really well, I bet it screams!

In the last year and a half I have bought 2 late 70's 2204's and played 4 more and all of them were meh? Perhaps they all needed a tuneup?

I've had a few here as well, first thing I do is throw a pair/quad of good vintage 34s in, re bias and put some Chinese pres in there. See how it sounds. Usually helps but a few might have needed a cap job. Amazing how vintage 34s can improve a Marshall!

I think I may need to find a quad of g12-65's, amp can be a bit bright and I've never tried those with these amps. You know where to get any used older ones?

Check out Reggie at RawCabs on eBay. I just got a new headshell made for my Fryette Deliverance. I went with a JCM800 style. The headshell that came with my amp was jacked up.

Here's my new one:







And I got 2 extra front panels. The main one will be stained, the other 2 will get piping and grill cloth once I decide on a final color for the headless itself.
