Topic: NAD '87 JCM 800 2204

I originally bought a Hot Rod Deluxe at a pawn shop for $265 then traded that and $125 for a TSL 100 and a Bugera 2x12. Sold the 2x12 for $130 then traded the TSL for the Vintage Modern. Traded the VM to my buddy for the JCM 800 and now I'm happy as a pig in a pile. Not getting rid this one.

The tone is great. Getting everything from Kossof to Page to Angus to Joe to  Warren's SLO 100 Gov't Mule tones. So versatile and articulate to picking

Love those 800's. Wish I hadn't traded mine in '85.

Re: NAD '87 JCM 800 2204

I love my 1985 JCM 800.  I will never get rid of her.  The only things Ive had done to her is put in a FX loop and changed out the original 6880 tubes with EL34's.  That turned it into a lean mean fire breathing monster of Marshall glory lol.


Hope you enjoy yours.

It's a fantastic amp. I can't wait to play a show with it.
