‘73 Marshall JMP 1992 Super Bass 100w Amp £2500 Stroud

[maximumbass21]

Bought new by my stepfather in '73 and was used for a few years. Since then, it has sat in storage for over 40 years. I have recently spent £300 (invoice attached) having the amp serviced and a new power socket fitted etc. I am waiting for a list of the work carried out from the shop which I will include once received.

The shop who serviced the amp had the amp running for over 48 hours with no noise but as this amp has not been used for so long, there may be some minor servicing required on it as you continue to use it. The shop can also be contacted to discuss the work carried out if you require, Dex is happy to talk through. If you search Dex Audio in Stroud, you will be able to find the contact number for the shop.

 

The amp is in original condition apart from the parts replaced during servicing (I will edit the post once I have this list).

 

Cash only, I am not interested in any trades. Collection from Stroud or I am willing to meet within a reasonable distance.

Beautiful. We used to use boot polish to get the tolex looking as good as possible.

 

I reckon you’d be best off selling in commission at a vintage dealer, I’ve found this the best way to safely engage a global market and get the best price.

I assume you skipped GCSE biology...

I did - went for Latin and German instead, but my point stands - those internal pix are amazing!

In your defence, they are very, very nice indeed.

 

If only I played in a band, had some gigs lined up, failed biology 'O' level, had a cabinet to drive and had not already sacrificed a kidney I'd love this. 

 

In all seriousness, this is utterly gorgeous. I'd love to be on stage and have this behind me. Unless I was at Wembley, I'd have the quiet satisfaction that I wasn't going be ignored and lost in the mix.

These just look so cool - oozing rock’n’roll attitude. My first bass amp was the 50 watt version in ‘76. I’d concur with the vintage dealer idea - many guitarists love these and prefer them to the dedicated guitar version

Yes that’s because few guitards can read and they don’t spot the word “bass” after “super”. It takes a bass player to see these things, leave them to their stacking cups and paw patrol cartoons
