Re: Waste of money or not ? Marshall 50th Combos....

One thing I love about my JMP1 combo is if I want to take a guitar and amp on vacation.

Even thought the Blue Pup is only rated for 10 Watts and the V30 is rated for 60 Watts?

The voice coil has more to do with power handling than the mag

Re: Humbucker Magnets

I've switched a few mags in difference PU with mixed results. It's an easy swap with PU's that don't have covers. One thing to watch out for is the orientation of the mag to keep the PU in Phase.

Re: Changing the speakers in a 1958X

I love the those little G10F-15's I find them very balanced, they are a green back without the green plastic covers. I switched out the G10N in my JMP1 for one, have another in a JCM1 and JTM1 OFFSET and one in a Class 5 cab. I use them with all my amps, thought about making a 4 x 10 with them, I ke...

I'd rather replace the speaker lead with a longer one, but that's me.

Re: Suggest Me A Marshall?

The DSL40C is a very versatile combo for the price you can upgrade the tubes and speaker and even buy the extension cab and upgrade it's speaker too and still be under your 1k.

Re: About adding a second cabinet and Ohms

If the amp has the 4 ohm tap then no problem, you may feel/hear a difference in the response of the amp, you can try and run the cabs in series (16 ohms) by making your own cable.

Re: JMD1 what ohms do i set on the head and what ohm sockets do i use on each cab please

They should be equal, 16 ohm cab set head to 16 ohms, 8 ohm cab set head to 8 ohms, if you run 2 x 16 ohm cabs which in parallel is 8 ohms so set head to 8 ohms.

If the cab has the switch in the back for 8 ohm stereo or 16 ohm mono, set it to 16 ohms

Yes I have a combo for years, I think it's a great amp, lots of tones. Also have the Ultra which I like better.

Re: JMD & VM - both thru one 4x12 Cab

Question 1 is a yes, just as you stated, number 2 will work up to a point, the G12C are only rated at 25 watts, so if you go too loud with the 100 watt VM you could blow them.

Re: DSL1 - 12BH7 as power tube

Marshall & Blackstar use the 12BH7 as the power tube in there 5 watt amps might be too much for the 1 watters

Re: Class 5 headphone trick mod - R51

I was looking at the guts of my C5H, boy that R51 is a little sucker, kind of tough to get at. I saw 2 unused male tabs by the headphone jack labeled speaker + & - do you know what they are for ? I guess I'm going to just put some clips on them and connect it to a speaker and see, hope it's the same...
