Why no MV reissues?

I'm very interested in a reissue jmp or jcm, but for the love of god, why don't they have a MV?

I'll have to attenuate, or mod it. Is there a 2203/2204 reissue with stock mv?

For the price of reissue, I'm more keen to find a vintage amp with stock mv.

Hey, I don't know how I missed that. It wasn't listed in marshall's tech spec page. I had to blow the pic up to see the mv.

I may pick up some eyeglasses too.

If you are after a 100w re-issue with MV, the silver jub re issue was just released this year... Some members here have it and it seems to rock!

Thanks. I didn't know about the Jube until yesterday. I'm looking real hard at it now. Its based on the JCM800 yes?

Not really, some would ague yes but I find the Silver Jube a much more forgiving amp. It is a true two channel amp and its gain comes on much earlier than a traditional 800. If you like to play heavy rock the amp is great for that.
