What year is that plexi ? Can that be done on a re-issue ? Is it a major mod or just a few values change ?
Its a '69 100 watt. On a HW it could be done, and probably one of the reg RI, i havent seen in one of those yet. Convert it over to a 2203 first, then there is a fair amount of tweaking in the power, PI and presence circuits....

These clips sound pretty nice Darren. The UA clip really doesnt sound any different to me from the first one (I'm assuming that is without the UA). Anthony says he likes his alot. I may have to look into one. Do you have the 100 volt tap on yours?

Your full tune sounds great! Nice picking in there :rock:

:rock: Great tones and playing! I prefer the SuperTrem sound the most, I love the bright Marshall sound. Plexi sounds pretty aggressive :)

Thanks George, yeah the 1st clip is without the UA - very loud - that's why I didn't play too long ;) ! And yes I have the 100 volt tap - I got it for convenience of having 1 less plug to find when we're trying to set up and tear down really fast - I'm not exactly sure of the tonal changes, I should check it out one day.

The reason I ask about the 100volt tap is my old Marshalls were intended to run on lower line voltages. I was thinking of either a variac or this 100 volt tap might be good solutions.

I could drop the voltages internally, but would rather just lower the line voltage without adding stuff inside the amps....
