That does look like my old one, Cam. Great amp.

First digit of the serial number should give you the year.

JCA2550 · December 2013

Great amp, glad to hear that you're sorted.

Yep that will make this a 1974 model then folks.

A friend of mine had one of these, blooming lovely thing! If I had the cash and all that.

How about £400?

I've looking for a blues junior, but this is a bit nicer - where are you based?

JCA2550 · January 2014

Hi, North London/ Hertfordshire

JCA2550 · January 2014

How about £375 delivered or £350 collected or local delivery?

JCA2550 · January 2014

A gentle bump!

EdGrip · January 2014

Guys! Somebody buy this just to stop me wanting it! It's making me wish I didn't have a Princeton Reverb, which is crazy-talk.

JCA2550 · January 2014

I have been considering a trade but would rather free up the space so £340 plus delivery/or free delivery if local (North London/Herts etc...).. and it can be yours.

JCA2550 · January 2014

One more time before I decide to keep it, If only I had more space?

That should be an 8 ohm speaker in there.

JCA2550 · January 2014

Yes so it should!

JCA2550 · January 2014

Originally a Jensen 40 Watt 8 Ohm speaker was probably the stock one. This YGM-3 had had several mods (improvements?!?) carried out on it by the previous owner it does sound glorious though and hasn't had any issues. I'll try it with an 8 Ohm V30 and report back.

Cheers,

Stock speaker would have been a Marsland alnico. Despite the reviews, they're actually very sweet sounding but woefully inefficient so were often dumped for something louder.

I think the reissued YGM3 has/had a Jensen and would be a good match for a Fender-y vibe. When I bought mine, it had an Emi Red Fang alnico installed and it was epic, especially with the back off the amp.

Previous owner chips in...

The Greenback was in there when I bought the amp so I don't know why it's a 16. I can't imagine a tough old Traynor being too troubled by that, though.

There are two tiny mods and every YGM-3 should have them: one cap switched to a different value to tighten up the bottom end, and another removed to de-spike the top end.

I've just replaced the Marsland in my new one for a Cannabis Rex, which sounds lush. If anyone wants an original Marsland, let me know.

I have just dropped a spare 8 Ohm V30 in and shall give it a blast at tomorrow's rehearsal. Initial impression is tighter bass and certainly louder which is only to be expected.

JCA2550 · February 2014

Sorry decided it's a keeper.

Howdy, Stranger!
