Hi,
A local store has a JCM 800 KK for sale that I played and like very much. How does the tone of it compare with the original JCM 800? Is the gain strength about the same(minus the Beast option)?
I like that the JCM 800 KK is newer. So, those of you with the early 80's models, are there any known issues that come up after 25+ years?
Price wise the KK model seems higher, so is it worth the extra $$? Are KT-88 tubes easy to get?
My music interests are in blues, classic rock, hard rock. I use a strat and Les Paul. Recently, I'm practicing metal riffs at home to improve my overall rhythm. So, I'd like a nice metal sounding amp. I use an OD pedal for boost as well...
Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
