Just recently got my dream guitar, a black LP custom. I recently got an amazing amp to match up with it!
My former amp didn't sound too hot with 'buckers, so I decided to start looking for a Marshall again, my LP's have always sounded great through them. Posted this over at the Marshall amp forums, figured at least a couple people might enjoy it over here!
Just happened to browsing my local craigslist on Monday, looking for a good marshall. I wasn't looking for anything huge, but came across an ad for a 2555 jubilee 100 watt halfstack for a grand. And aside from a funky replacement metal front grille, which was added for better airflow while in a roadcase for stage use, seems to be in decent cosmetic shape. Where it counts though, the guts, are perfect; clean bill of health from tech, etc etc.. seller couldn't have been nicer guy, said he knows it's rare but I think he just wanted his old rig to go to a good home. Cab also has 60 or 70 watt Celestions, not a matching cab but still a 1960b cab with nice replacement celestions... great!
I had never played one before but heard it's got a GREAT sound for rock/hard-rock. I think the clean's not half-bad either for a Marshall!
Ordered a replacement front grille for 40 bucks, so 1040 for a great Marshall half-stack, not bad! :foghorn
