It's 2203 day

[Lasse Lammert]

....if there's still a producer/guitarist who doesn't have a 2203: YOU FAIL!!!!!

seriously, those amps are so awesome, especially the old JMP and early vert input 800s

here's some Nevermore with the JMP 2203....

2203+TS

Mesa Cab, single sm57

settings are in the "comments" section of the mp3 tag.


if you wanna be taken seriously: get yourself a 2203 or 2204!

who here has one?

 

[Skyweaver]

Had an original 80's and sold it for a BlackStar....if i ever get enough $$ I might get another, theres that new zakk wylde model coming out could be a goer - if your "B" test had 6550's in it

you sir, are an idiot!

but I've done equally stupid things before....4 times so far, NEVER gonna sell/trade this one though, it's the best one so far (they all sound different)

Ha ! I knew that was coming, yeah I got married and had kids too !

yeah the 2003 was great for slow stuff and solos,

but by far my biggest fuck up was selling my trace elliot V4 - what a fucking great bass head

 

[Straight Shooter]

My '77 JMP 2203. Still completely stock except for the power tubes. Also had a few more '70's 2203's including a '78 2203 (modded) but it was stolen.

 

[jangoux]

I can't afford a 2203, but I am thinking of building a clone in the next few months. lately I've been recording a lot of bands that just ASK for the Marshall tone.

 

[FIXXXER]

sounds really good!
are we speaking about the original 1975 models or the 2203 in general!?

cheers

[Trevoire520]

Closest I've had is my DSL and the Windsor that I've got the now. Would absolutely love to get some kind of Marshall again if I had the cash.

 

[BLUElightCory]

I have a '78 JMP 2203, that counts yeah?

 

[Lasse Lammert]

I have a '78 JMP 2203, that counts yeah?

that's the one I'm using.
Just converted mine to 6550

 

[Mikaël-ange]

Need one

 

[The Unavoidable]

I'm getting one. Not quite sure when, but hopefully before the year is over.

I will however be picking up a 1960BX cab (greenbacks) very soon!

 

[dasbrootal]

LOVE my 2204.

instant GAS

 

[Splat88]

Damn I hate you right now. I desperately wish I had an 800 at my disposal.

 

[guitarguru777]

My friend has a 78' JMP that I am going to use on my next project

My fave amp of all time still to this day!

 

[7string]

I have a couple of cascaded 1959/1987's that I built. Same thing as the 2203/2204's except the V1b cathode resistor/cap.

'75 1959 100w Metal Panel JMP Super Lead. '67 1959 100W Plexi, a '69 200w Major, and a 2204'd Blackface Bassman.

 

[kvoid]

Yeah Lasse everyone sure wouldn't mind having a 2203, but I wouldn't mind a bottomless pot of gold either

Maybe a Bugera 1960 would be a good choice to butcher to 2203 specs? The 1990 is a 4100 clone (why oh why...)
