its all the rage

marshall jcm800's seem to be all everyone ever wants for playing loud aggressive music, maybe for its simplicity (6 knobs), or maybe for its crushing tone. i've never been sure, all i know is while i have always loved its sound, i have hated it's cosmetics. its not that looks are everything because i can assure you they have no effect on the ton of the amp it self. i just have always loved how jtm cabs looked.

so for this recent build (which i almost finished last night until i realized i was short 1 singular resistor) i decided to do a jcm in my standard jtm style head cab. while this chassis is alot smaller. and i have to drill alot of extra holes i think asthetically it will be worth every ounce of frustration when it comes to fitting it all together. its also my prototype to make sure i have one for people to play when ordering.

this one is dedicated to tj for being such a supportive and rad dude.

the only thing that will change on ordered ones after this is that the head will look like a more traditional jcm, still my black on black scheme. just not a jtm cab, its to small and troublesome. and the new chassis will provide extra room for things like buffered effects loops.

i'll be done this guy by boxing day at the latest. maybe this time around i'll get some sound clips. its gonna be a heavy metal dream.

and by the time i come back to work on the 4th of january i hope to have also completed the 300 watt bass head. but thats another story with a lot of custom one off work going into it.

i'll post more pics soon.
k. good
