Marshall JMD-1 100 Watt Head Opinions

I just played on one Friday and I thought it was pretty decent. I was thinking it was going to be horrible from what I have heard around here , but I was getting some good tones out of it. It has some great mid to higher gain sounds. The crunch sounds were damn nice also. I am thinking of getting one for a backup to my JVM. The guy that owned the amp had completely retubed the amp, and he said the stock tubes were {censored}.

I treid setting patches with the foot controller and could not get anything programmed. Any tips?

 

 

from the manual:

 

To Store - Dial in the tone you require, when you are

happy, press the Footswitch / MIDI Program switch twice

(LED is flashing). Using the Footcontroller, select the bank

you require and then press the chosen preset. The

Footswitch / MIDI Program switch will stop flashing and

your settings will have been stored.

 

edit: the footswitch probably has to be in "preset mode".. that's in there, too.

Yea, cause a 69' Plexi and a Mode 4 sound so much alike
:facepalm:

 

No he means, most modelling amps give so much more disperse and different sounds...This one only has a take on marshalls. Too proud and snobby in a sense, even fender had brit style amps on their modelling amps!

But none of the marshall range sound like an AC30 or fender twin or mesa boogie or any of the other go-to standards for "I need a particular sound this gig hey good thing I got this modelling amp".
