no the 2553 50w jube is a mini size head and sits on a custom size 2x12 which
I like as it captures the look of a marshall 1/2 stack and still fits in your car!
Jubilees are hard to get a great sound by themselves I dont care what anyone
says they are hard amps to dial in they seem to lack certain frequencys that tend
to make it almost like someones put a blanket over the amp. thats why I need the
fender HRD to fill in the missing frequencys. DO any jube owners out there AGREE
but they have a lovely thick distortion and brilliant roar like a jcm800
and have a unique sound of their own .you either love these amps or hate them
just my opinion though !
cheers Softmc
That makes sense then, a brighter 6L6/Fender type OD tone would be a good compliment to a warmer Marshall sound. I'm not very familiar with the Jubilee model but I have heard that they are one of the "warmer" voiced Marshalls, not sure if it's due to the SS clipping diodes. Like you said, some love that sound and some just can't get into it. How 'bout some clips with the Hot Drive and Boost and/or the TS-9? Great rig man!
