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.

:twisted:

I am sure that an original JMP or JCM 800 would be much better money spent... the current lineup doesn't hold a flame to their older amps.

:D The thing to remember with RR tone is that when he & the band recorded the 1st Ozzy album, Jet records invested practically nothing in the recording process, it was done on the cheap. Nobody expected the thing to do much !

It was recorded on a 16 track studio setup. This hamperd the sound rather badly as you can hear by Randys sound. He allways sounded better live than in the studio.

I thought the amp in that Youtube vid sounded pretty damn good to my ears at least.
