Used And Vintage Amps

 Truetone Music has been selected to take in a special collection of instruments from a very special long-time customer and friend of ours.  A collector of only unique, rare, vintage and high-end guitars & amps, he amassed a serious collection of these years.  For the first time, these pieces are available on the market for the first time.


One of the most interesting pieces from this collection is a rare 1978 Marshall JMP Master Model 50 Watt MKII Lead in Fawn.  While these amps do exist out there in the wild, they are hard to score in this covering.  And for it to be in this condition, makes it an even more special find.  


It has the original parts, including the speakers, tubes and transformer.  It even has the original cover, which is rare for these.  It looks like a slight mod was made to it over the years but then restored; more details are listed below.  We had this amp properly inspected and vetted by an outside source - an amp tech who is local L.A. legend and vintage expert.  Everything is straight and tested to good working order.  The condition of this amp is excellent, especially considering its age.  Be sure to check out the photos to see everything.  

This is a great looking amp....to say nothing of how it sounds.  Flat out amazing.   50 watts of pure tube tone, with the sound of the 70's in a 2x12 combo.  Drive it hard but roll the master volume back to get the full tone without breaking your eardrums.  Or, go ahead and blast it - that's what this amp is for.  We were all really impressed when playing through it - turns out this is a very versatile amp, at a variety of levels and settings.

We've had a ton of vintage amps here over the years, and this one stands out as one of the coolest.  It would be a fine addition to any vintage amp collection.
