If you want a signature Marshall, just get a Silver Jubilee Reissue

Will there be an un-aged version for sale also?

Not that has been announced. As I say above, it would not surprise me at all if they release an unaged, non JB spec version at some point.

If it were Un-aged, I would buy one now.

#1-150 Aged & #151-300 Un-aged. I'll pay for #151 right now.

Take care,
Bill

I'd buy one if I needed 80w of tubes... I barely need 5 tube watts

Re: JB 59-Twin coming soon

Remember to break it in first before just turning to 12.
If it was me. I might even let it run a couple of days with mp3's slowly turning up the volume

Enjoy

That’s to bad but oh well he knew everything and would not listen to anyone. If he just thought before he spoke I am sure he would have been great to talk about gear.

Sad to say, that his attitude and need to make bold claims etc almost made me doubt anything he said about himself.

Re: JB 59-Twin coming soon

I kinda thought the opposite.  However, things are verifiable, so why run off if true?!  Dang, I was hoping he would be a good contact for Alaska...snow well!  hmm

And yeah, not listening to people in Joe’s Forum is a dumb move.  Actually, it’s a requirement.  That’s the mainstay way to stay connected, hooked up, stay somewhat in the know, get generally genuinely great advice (or information about anything-maybe even overhead space and other mathematical measurements and more, mostly meaningless meanderings) while joining in in generally good spirits with or without the blues, with this forum, from the very first iteration.  I’ve been listening for a looonng time.  This forum has an almost audible quality about it.  You can hear how quiet it goes if nobody is taking the time or making the effort to post in earnest.  You can also hear the din when significant numbers of the debating Team show up with their trophies!  By the way, open enrollment for tryouts is ON Right NOW! cool

Let’s get back to the Fender gender JB

Re: JB 59-Twin coming soon

It stinks when a new user leaves and I hope he will be back... This really is the most polite, reverent and balanced forum I have ever had the pleasure of being a part of but at the same time sticking to the facts (which is helpful). Sometimes new poster's don't realize they are reading posts by others who have a LOT of experience.

As for pictures anyone can open a dummy Instagram account and post pictures there. Even post videos if they like.

Maybe he can come back and give things a second chance. Sounds like a 'gearhead' to me and they are always welcome in my book.

Re: JB 59-Twin coming soon

I have serial number 0004 and spent the weekend breaking it in with a 65 & 69 Strats and a JB goldtop & JB tomato soup burst LP.   I love the amp.  I can't get sparkling clean from it but that's not what I got it for.   In a reasonable sized venue at the suggested JB settings it was very loud and I have to wonder how long the power tubes will last, but it was sweet.  I've mainly played the strats the last few years and the LPs through this amp was a powerful and articulate sound.  Every note comes through and there is a lot of that tweed saturation.  I kept the guitar volume about half for rhythm and rolled it up for leads (very tough to do when one is used to the ease of the Strat's volume knob).   It'll be a few months before I reach a final verdict on the amp but I was all smiles this weekend.  As with any tweed boosting is better than OD pedals, but the KOT, Doubleland and TS all worked well.   The main use for a pedal at that volume for me was to knock off some of the bass.   Realistically for what I do I think the sweet spot will be around volume 4.  From there I can boost up for more raunchiness or leads and still roll down for cleanish playing.   You can use a strat to get really good Hendrix like tones, ones that are good enough to convince me he likely used tweeds in some studio recordings.  Regardless I got a piece of history that will never leave my side while I'm still breathing.   This is not a bedroom or even really a basement amp.  It's loud.  Luckily I have a tweed champ that sounds similar enough for home practice.   I really want to thank Joe for making this happen.
