Looks like Marshall has hit a new low since the sale of Marshall

[Session 5]

You guys and all your high priced Marshall's. I get it done for less money, and can still get a banging head with this eh! 35RT SS.

That's right ORANGE BABY...

Most won't know that during 1967 to 1972 Marshall made Park amps for their dealers that Rose Morris dropped
Park amps were reissued but had nothing to do with Marshall.
My 1969 Park Marshall 75 is a great sounding amp used GEC KT88 power tubes stock serial #A1048

The Kitchen/Marshall, Narb, CMI and Big-M ( Germany) are other, even more obscure and rarer work-arounds of the Rose Morris deal. The Narb in particular is one of the rarest ( not to be confused with amps built today using the same name and similar build) as it was directly made under Ken Bran's direction ( Narb=Bran).

The Kitchen Marshalls were one of the most well known ways to beat the deal he had with Rose Morris, as they were built for the chain, Kitchen's, initially labeled as PA equipment. However, many models of the JTM45 exist with that badging but the most notable is the Marshall Super Amplifier which is essentially a Super Lead but with 8 inputs vs the traditional 4 and carried much of the same circuitry

Thanks for posting Jason’s video.

After reading the current replies on this thread, I think some are missing the point or did not watch the video. The new Marshall Amp company is trying to capitalize on their history and/or nostalgia by deceiving the customer with questionable parts, but still charging a pretty penny for it. In the example of the “vintage reissue” 2203 for $3500+, this is a joke! Let me rephrase… This is a SCAM! At this price I would expect authentic homegrown trannies. Notice Marshall’s marketing never says: “Hey boys and girls! One of the greatest rock n roll amps ever built, the tried and true Marshall JCM800 2203 of England, can be yours for way more money than it’s worth, and we’ve added an fx loop and exotic transformers from Vietnam!”

Exactly. For what they're charging for what you get, you can get a better vintage amp for less money. I just happen to have a lot of old amps because I'm old, and am not going to buy any new ones to replace them. At least not from Marshall.
