That is good :) I dont know how Ozzy can even stand to play with Zakk after having someone of that standard. I love the solo on Goodbye to Romance from the Tribute live album, hate the song but that is an awesome solo. I like his live tone as well, cant stand the studio tone though.

This amp sounds pretty good, I'd like to have a go on one.

i've heard about this, apparently its guna be going for around 3500$ US?

and the cascade mod means that the gainstages will be in series instead of parallel, which might mean that 1 channel will feed into the other instead of having 2 completely separate channels like before... kinda like a 2203


i bet you mod companies will start offering this as a "randy mod" or something of the sort... that would be sweet.
my maxon OD 808 really DOES make poop sound good

Be ALOT cheaper to buy a Marshall or similar and pay an AMP tech./guru to MOD it to what YOU want.
This way you have YOUR tone (cos ya aint EVER getting Randy's, he's sadly not here anymore and was never cloned to my knowledge). Also, ya don't have somebody elses name on YOUR amp signifying you wanna be someone else and not yourself.
But thats just my opinion :)
Also, the parts from Randy's amp are not around anymore I would bet, let alone the Euro nannies deeming we ALL lick our equiptment and therefore banning lead solder SHEESH  :roll:

I'm really interested to know what they did in that amp - there alot more gain than a 2203.  One of my mates wants one but I talked him out of it saying that an original JMP would be money better spent, now I'm not so sure - they sound great.

Mind, he did point out in nerdish fashion the the piping on Randy's Marshall was black - not white like they've used in the reissue.

And I think the cascade mod has something to do with cascading pre-amp á la Mesa Boogie


I wondered if it was that... does it mean that each preamp tube runs into the next or something?


Pretty much, an extremely common mod for distortion back in the 70s and 80s.

I wonder if this is going to suck as much as the rest of the current Marshall lineup...
