SOLD PENDING - JCM800 head (reissue) and JCM800 2x12 cab (original, not MDF) for sale.

Needs must in the short term, so my precious is up for sale.

The head is a JCM800 2203x reissue head in perfect condition. Everyone knows *that* sound but I've been staggered by the clean sound and the master volume effectiveness. I ended up having much fun running it on the Lo input as a pedal platform, as well as the fun forays in to crunch.

This one is in a very dark blue Tolex (some sort of special run I presume) 

Bomb-proof construction and *that* sound.

£750 collected or delivered in a reasonable driving radius of Swindon, or plus insured courier postage.


The cab is an original JCM800 2x12 which sounds absolutely HUGE. I gather this one has done the rounds of the South Wales musical community being bought and sold to and fro among a small group - one of whom tipped me off to it (thanks @Jetfire ) 
It looks its age close up but by god it sounds wonderful - a room filling sound either clean or crunchy. I gather it has the original speakers in, but they seem to have been so loosened up over time I had no intention of the 'internet received wisdom' upgrades.

£250 collected or delivered in a reasonable driving radius of Swindon, or plus insured courier postage.

I will split - the head can be sold on its own, but not the cab at this stage.

    Just posting to say TimmyO is a top bloke and 2203s are fantastic amps, so if you're umming and ahhing you should definitely buy this.

    I expect to be having a conversation with Tim in a year's time about how he regrets letting this go.

    I'd get it, but I already have one JCM800 head in my mum's garage because there isn't space for it at mine!

    Cheers Jonny.

    I guess if we want to do that A/B comparison we talked about we best do it soon!
