JMP 50 MKII 2x12 Combo Worth it?
« on: February 13, 2006, 09:45:49 PM »
Hi all,

There is a JMP 50W 2x12 Combo in my local shop going for 400GBP in what looks to be a good condition.

I am totally clueless on old Marshalls, and i was wondering if this is a good model. What's a fair price for it, and if i can identify the model, specs, originality etc etc.

I would be greatfull for some insight.

Double check the model number on the back, but it looks like a great buy!

Don't know about the condition, but I have the head only version and it is kickin'. Mine was modded by Tony @ Krank Amps, but it was great before as well.

2104 is the nice one, single channel.  I think there was a 2187 which doesn't have a master I'd say that would be nice too as it's the same as a 1987 head.

Sounds like a good deal...

Try before you buy and maybe get them to service it as part of the deal...

Its 2104, from what the owner told me... and from what he told me its all stock or so...

He also has a JCM800 2204 head 50W for a similar price.

More info.

1980 model.

Only mod : 1 speaker-out has been probably modded to be a line-out (it has a lineout handwritten over it)

Any ideas?
