Marshall Mark VII

Each channel can select between three different Marshall circuits

My dream amp is not made by anyone, so this will do.

Probably an original tweed bassman. I like 10" speakers it was a gateway amp for most other iconic amps.

People would kill for a true IIC+ reissue; knowing Gibson they eventually will but it would be north of 5k$.

 

[TheTrueZoltan!]

A JVM410H without the annoying hiss.

Murphy Lab “I Didn’t Know What I Had“ Edition w/ 40 year old Budweiser and cigarette ashes glazed onto various areas of the amp.

 

[Ed DeGenaro]

Most pre 1980 Marshalls will do. Preferably 70-72 era
Or Brown Deluxe/Blonde Bandmaster

New stuff there are literally only 3 things id be interested in…

Metropolous DVL1
3P Kitchen Sink
Wizard MC2

I'd need to check but I think that schematics looks ok. I remember that back in the day, the most popular schematics had a value written by hand and it was wrong. Our service schematics and the original amp were different to that schematic online Thanks a lot Santiago! The schem I linked...

German and boutique high gain manufacturers hate him……

I think it is hilarious how the most prevalent myth of the Mark series GEQ is to create a semblance of a V,
even when there is easy access to pictures like these.

Very fortunate to have a couple of my dream amps already.

 

[Ed DeGenaro]

Wait i change my vote 68 50 watt Plexi orginally owned by Bob Marley, now owned by Ziggy Marley, his tech brought it over and that was an OMG+++++ experience.

 

[Life Eats Life]

A JVM410H without the annoying hiss.

Mercury Magnetics transformers removes that and the sizzling bacon sounds inbetween chords and notes in channels 3 & 4 in red mode with the gain past noon or dimed.
You’ll need power tubes that can handle higher plate voltages etc because you’ve just added 25-30% more headroom.
All that crap that starts at 10-11oclock on the gain control isn’t even there if you dime the gain.
Holy punch from hell, buries an Uberschall for breakfast.

I guess if i had to own one amp would be one these ->

 

[dronerstone]

I'd definitely love a LAB Series L5 solid-state platform (open-back 2x12") with the tone stack of a vintage V-Series Ampeg.
