I have a pair of NOS Mullard EL84's and a pair of NOS Telefunken 12AX7's which make a world of difference in this amp. I don't know if you're aware of this or not but Jeff Beck supposedly has an original Marshall 20 Watt Lead & Bass head that he loves so much that he took the reissue head/cab version on the road with him. According to Jeff's guitar and amp tech he runs his flat out and it's just enough power.JkGriffin wrote:Surprisingly small amount of 2061x owners indeed...
For me it has parked the rest of my amps with the exception of the Kemper which I use for practice at home at more reasonable levels.
Not to say that it is the best Marshall out there when it comes to sound, but it hold its own against the best and is a practical size, both in terms of physical size and power...
This weekend I'll replace the speakers in my 2061CX with greenbacks though... I found that it sound better with greenies and I can push the amp into more natural overdrive with those...

I've tried 4x12 with both Greenbacks and G12H30... same issue...Mats A wrote:Maybe the 2x12 is the problem. With a 4x12 or maybe another 2x12 you'd be able to project the sound better. But i know some tones just get lost in a band situation. When i had the 2205 i had that problem.
I'm lazy and I'm at work... so instead of searching up all you've written about this... could I trouble you with what kind of modifications you've done with the 2061X with a small description on how you experience the amp before and after?Papus wrote:Check out my Papus signature 2061x clips on this forum.
Finest amp Marshall ever made.
Perfect compromise between power, loudness, physical size & cost of operation (i.e. re-tubing)

Great tone at home = useless in a band...
