Cool Marshall combo

[Disturber]

Im not a big fan of when the big brands issue limited edition series and stick a famous name to the design. Most often it's just a reason to blow up the price, and yes - Marshall does this all the time and it's quite tiresome. But this amp found my liking. Pretty cool (did I say I love Marshall combos, love Paul Weller too).

Always thought he used Vox amps.

He always did. That's how he "has achieve" that sound of his.

Marshall should review ad copy before publication. Or is that a British spelling?

He's been using Marshall 1987 combos for a long time, for all I know? The album I just played in my car for sure has Marshall tones on it, from 2005.

For the past decade Paul has been plugging into a rare Marshall 2100 Lead and Bass 50, circa 1976. These now highly sought-after 50-Watt combos were only produced in small numbers over a three year period from 1973 to 1976.

Live clip with Marshall:

The price is suprisingly low though, only 999 British pounds. i was expecting it to be tripple that.

The amp looks like an archery target. Maybe Ted Nugent should be the one endorsing this amp.

If they change the blue ring to red, they can market it at Target.

I wouldn't think of 1999-2009 as Paul Weller's "classic" period, although I really like a lot of stuff (very much) off of his last album. He was Vox and Ricks with the Jam pretty much exclusively, I thought.
