I reckon I'd possible have enough funds to afford a JVM410C combo once I admitted that those tones could rock the socks off my feet better than the pedals I'd sell to to easily justify it all. It appears Jim Marshall has begun to grace the threshold of the practical limits of classic, rocking tones, at least to my simple-minded ears, that is.

Cheers Andi, How much are the Combos over there? They're fairly price here at around the grand mark, but I reckon they must sound great, they have two different speakers in them for a nice blend of low response (G12-H) and Highs and Mids (Vintage30), should be an interesting end product out front. Yeah the JVM made me sell all my dirt pedals too, before I was using two of the channels of the 6100 (clean and crunch) with a variety of pedals for breakup, heavier crunch and lead sounds and they all bit the dust with this amp, I can't hide my love for it.

Thanks for chekcing it out and sorry for making you envious. You have PLENTY of stuff I would remove limbs to have.

Haha, t'is all gooooot.

Strangely enough, Marshall amps in general were relatively more affordable a good 7-8 years ago, but an across-the-board higher VAT on imported stuff has forced dealers to really push things up over the past few years, most gear averaging now about 20% above UK street, from what I've calculated. Bad timing for good equipment, there's no real advantage to buying stuff direct from the UK anymore.

I may just have to rescind and get that Bad Cat Mini Cat until the big ship comes in. :P

That would be a lovely choice. Those BadCats are well designed. The Arctic Monkeys use them these days and I really like the sounds they're getting.

Marshall is having a bit of a price hike around now because of the weakness of the dollar, we're talking 200$ in the US, hopefully you won't be affected if you do choose to go down the JVM route.
