I Bought a Weird Old Marshall.
I stumbled across what looked like a normal 1984 Marshall JCM800 2203… and then things got weird. This amp turned out to be anything but stock. We’re talking an extra gain stage, KT88 power tubes, and a whole lot of unanswered questions. Was it a factory experiment? A touring musician’s secret weapon? A late-night mod from a mad genius tech in the ’80s? Nobody knows—and that’s part of the magic.
