Re: silver jubilee

Try Ebay, Marshall has't made these in a long time.  The Slash Marshall is similar.

Re: silver jubilee

they are rare amps. good luck finding one and then being able to afford it.  People wonder why joe tours with them because of their value and road abuse.

Re: silver jubilee

I actually saw one at guitar center a while back- it was pretty expensive (like $2000 or so) but I played through it and it was heaven- great sound out of these amps... good luck in your quest to find them... I think Joe tours with them because
a.) (obviously) he likes the sound and
b.) he probably has a good amount of them so if one breaks he still has more...

Re: silver jubilee

Being that they're not in production anymore, and the helter-skelter nature of amp production (reissues being notoriously not) he probably scafs them up when he sees them- they seem to be a fixture in the set up.
But I am sure you were yoking.

Re: silver jubilee

Theres this new amp Marshall has out now that is pretty similar to it... it's the Vintage Modern amps... they have a master volume just like the Silver Jubilees and they don't sound half bad smile

Re: silver jubilee

I gave you a hookup on one of those, natluS, but somebody snapped it up while you were dithering. They only have one row of knobs. neutral

Re: silver jubilee

Yeah we stock 'em. Very 'old school'. You ride the volume on the guitar to get your tones. They're for people who know what to do with a valve amp....not full of channel switching pyrotechnics and they're not a 'plug in and go' amp....you have to work at it.
