Marshall JTM1H 50th Anniversary Guitar Amplifier Head

Released in celebration of Marshall's 50th anniversary, the JTM1H delivers crunchy, pure-tube British tone.

A 1 watt all tube head built in Bletchley, England, celebrating 50 years of Marshall power and legendary tone. The Marshall JTM1H 50th Anniversary Guitar Amplifier Head reflects the legend of 1960's Marshall tone and vibe. The JTM1H head can drive a 4x12 cab and is designed and voiced to reproduce the sounds of the Marshalls of the '60s but at a controllable 'home friendly' volume.

The '60s Marshalls were famous for their full sound with a well rounded bass which is balanced by a bright airy treble. They were also designed for a wide range of guitar output levels, so were quite easy to overdrive at high volumes. The 50th Anniversary JTM1H amp head has been designed to provide distinctive tonal character at the surprisingly loud level of 1 watt.

The simple control layout of Loudness and Tone enables you to dial in a great sound with the minimum of fuss. To add further to the 'home friendly' nature of the Marshall JTM10H amp head, whenever the full 1-Watt output proves too loud you can hit the Low Power button on the rear panel to further drop the wattage to 0.1 watt, enabling you to crank the loudness control to get the tone you desire.

The dual-triode ECC82 in the power amp is configured to work in 'push pull', just like the famous Marshall amps of the 1960s. When combined with the right level of feedback in the power amp, this allows for fine control over the dynamics, allowing you to clean up the sound with the guitar volume, or a lighter, picking touch, and then 'dig read more in' for some classic '60s Marshall growl.

The Marshall JTM1H amplifier head can drive an external speaker cabinet of either 16 or 8 ohms at full power via the corresponding speaker output jacks on the rear panel. The 50th Anniversary JTM1H amp head is also very capable of driving a full 4x12 inch cabinet for the ultimate in mini Marshall tone of the '60s.
