A legend in the world of guitar amps, the JCM800 2203is the 100W all-valve head that kicked off the Marshall JCM revolution and changed the face of modern amplifiers.
Simple yet effective, the distinctive sound of the single-channel JCM800 can be heard on thousands of records.That highly-saturatedyet tight distortion whichtransparently brings out the creaminess of a humbucker, or the vibrancy of a single-coil.
Tribute To A Classic
Marshall's original JCM800 was used by countless rockstars throughout the '80s and '90s, including Billy Corgan, Jeff Beck and Tom Morello; spanning many different genres and proving just how versatile the amp circuit is.
The modern 2203 doesn't seek to expand on the original design too much. Featuring a simpleEQ section withpreamp gain andmaster volume controls, thehigh and low sensitivity inputs also remain;helping you to controlyour overall gain and level. Just plug into a classic Marshall 4x12" cab and you're away - instant, iconicand100% authentic rock guitar tone!
Series Effects Loop
Although the original formula remains mostly intact, Marshall thoughtfully added a series effects loop tothe Vintage Reissue JCM800.So if you're a stompbox fanatic, the 2203can serve as an excellent pedal platform - just connect your favourite modulation and time-based pedals throughthe loop for seamless sonic bliss!
Featuring a true bypass switch, you can engage thisto takethe loop completely out of the circuit.Thisensures that the original tone isn't compromised in any shape or form.
