Faithfully replicating everything you love about the JCM800
The Marshall JCM800 Modified pays homage to one of the most iconic amps in history, capturing everything guitarists loved about the original JCM800. Introduced in the early 80s, the JCM800 became famous for its punchy, high-gain tones and was embraced by punk rockers and heavy metal bands, including Slayer, Guns N' Roses and Iron Maiden.
Though discontinued, its distinctive sound led to a revival in the Vintage Reissue series called the JCM800 2203, which saw the introduction of a series FX loop. Inspiring a new generation of artists like Lzzy Hale, Gregg Barnett and Lee Malia, these musicians, like their predecessors, found the JCM800 2203 a tool to express their creativity and push the boundaries of their music.
The new JCM800 Modified faithfully captures the iconic tone of the original amp while retaining all the classic features that made it legendary. Enhanced with modern features, including a gain boost, mid boost, and tight switch, this latest incarnation offers greater tonal control and versatility for today's players. Experience the amp that defined the sound of an era, now reimagined to faithfully replicate everything you loved about the original JCM800. With enhanced versatility, you have the tools to shape its legendary tone to suit any genre.
