SOLD
‘This original 1984 Marshall JCM800 2204 head represents the legendary sound that helped power the era of hair bands and headbanging. This amp was one of the first from Marshall to feature a master volume control that originally evolved from the Plexi head.
The JCM800 2204 remains the essence of simplicity due to one channel with no reverb control. If you want to rock out without a lot of fuss, just perform your sound check and then let this amp do the rest. The distinctive roar of the JCM800 set the standard by which all other rock amps were judged at the time of its original release. A convenient top handle makes transporting this legendary amp easy.’

This Marshall was purchased from 'Byron Bay Music' second hand in the 90's and since then it has been mainly used as a gigging, and occasionally, a recording amp. As you can see the Marshall's beautiful white finish has tarnished from years spent on the road, but we think this only adds to its rock'n'roll appeal - and as we know, a well used amp is well used for one reason, its a goodie!
It’s a stock 2204 with no modifications. It comes with the 4x12 cabinet loaded with four much-desired Celestion G12-65 speakers that sound fantastic!
The Serial Number is AS00158 making it a 1984 build.
So, fire up the SG...this amp sounds unbelievable, with a big clean and even bigger dirty sound with plenty of grit and kick. You will not be disappointed!
A bonus is that this Marshall JCM800 Head comes with a road case as seen in picture 7.
