Marshall superlead 100

[hatori]

Like a fool I sold my Marshall superbass 100 5 years ago and now desperately want another. Prices on Ebay reflect their collectability and are sadly out of my reach. I have read that there is not a great deal of difference between the Superbass and Superlead head. Is this correct and, were I to use a superlead would it damage it in any way? Ive been checking out the Vintage modern 2466 which is more affordable. What do you think?

No idea, try posting in the Amps section. I dont think Dave Hall had any input into the design of Marshall stuff.

The difference between the two amps is one cap which makes the superlead a bit brighter. A superlead will work great for bass.

My fav amp BTW.

When you settle on a budget, let me know and I will pick through the pile to see if I have one I can do for that price....
...but you'll find that a Bass will be cheaper than a Lead.

And you'll find that the new series stuf jsut doesn't ahve the qua;ity of componenets, build or transformers of the JCM800 and older models.
