AMP CORRECTION -- The Marshall amp was Modded by Voodoo Amps, not Voodoo Labs.



BACK STORY - The amp started out life as a Reissue JCM800 2203x. Anders had played an outdoor show at the long running annual ‘Grassroots Festival’ in Trummansburg NY a few years ago. Backline amps were needed for the gig & a Marshall we Modified for producer Alex Perialas (amp also used on 1st Joe Bonamassa record). This contained an early version of our ‘Hex’ circuit, which was specially voiced for Alex & still resides at Pyramid Sound Studios in Ithaca NY. The amp also had a unique hand-wound prototype ‘plexi’ spec Output Transformer made by Simcha Delft in New Zealand circa 1999. Simcha was one of the designers in the transformer company Obsolete Electronics (more commonly known as ‘OEI’) along company founder Joe Pampel.

A few months after the show, Anders contacted us & asking if we could make a duplicate amp for him. As OEI was no longer making transformers we could not get a duplicate, as such Trace Davis (Voodoo Amps President / Founder) drew up specs for a Custom transformer set which were made for us by Mercury Magnetics. Trace installed the same Circuitry Modifications & also added some additional Customization to better match Anders playing style so it would be more inspirational to play on. The amp was shipped to Anders on 10-23-2014 & they begin discussing the amp at 22:08 in Premier Guitar’s Rig Rundown video

Many thanks to Anders Osborne, his Guitar Tech Phil Franks, John Bohlinger & the gang at Premier Guitar!
