Hi all,

Reducing the amp collection so up for sale is my Marshall JTM Head/Cab set. £625 collected from CR52EJ. I still have the box so could courier at the buyers cost.

Twin ECC83 preamp valves and a single ECC82 in the power stage
Runs at 1 Watt or .1 Watt
Speaker is a custom voiced 10″ Celestion G10F-15

Great little home or recording amp, with a summary below of the full review which can be found in the link provided. Pics to follow.

The design of the JTM half stack is inspired by the early JTM45 Offset that was produced in small numbers by Marshall between late 1962 and 1963. The latest Offset is a limited edition hand-built offering from the Marshall Custom Shop, Bletchley, England.

This single channel 1 Watt amp has been designed to be used at home, in recording studios and at small intimate gigs. It may be limited to one Watt, but it packs an unexpected punch and oozes classic Marshall tone. The fact that it delivers vintage sounding crunch and drive may come as no surprise, but I was unprepared for its gloriously articulate glassy clean tone.

The head is equipped with only two controls, Tone and Loudness, but the two radio-style knobs are all you need to dial in great sounds with the minimum of fuss. With twin ECC83 valves in the preamp and a single ECC82 valve in the power stage, the Custom Offset is configured to work in “push pull”, just like old Marshalls of the ’60s. This amp rewards the expressive guitarist. It feels responsive and dynamic.

There are few components to get in the way of the guitar signal, so it sounds big, open, full-bodied and chimey. The new Offset encourages use of the volume control on your guitar to generate everything from bright cleans through to heavy crunch. Stick an overdrive pedal in front of it for all the gain you’ll ever need. If cleans are all you want, just keep the Loudness rolled back. With this amp you can get pretty much any sound by leaving it cranked up all the way – just use the volume pot on your guitar to clean up the tone, the way guitarists used to do it.
