Marshall TSL100 head for sale. This head needs some work, I can't bias one pair of the tubes. The problem appears to be caused by one of the caps bleeding voltage into the bias circuit and is a documented problem with JCM2000's. It should be a cheap fix along with replacing the bias pot from the previous owner stripping it out trying to bias the amp. I don't have the time to fix it, nor do I know of a good amp tech in my area. It still works fine and sounds pretty good, but it'll sound great once it's fixed. Just trying to be 100% honest about the amp. Comes with working footswitch. I don't know if it's original, but the footswitch came wired with a plug so you can leave it on your pedalboard and just connect the wire. Has Groove Tubes EL34's and 12AX7's in it, have no idea how old they are. I have 3 brand new Tung-Sol reissue 12AX7's and a balanced EH 12AX7 from Doug's Tubes that I'll thow in if full asking price is paid.

 

The amp is 7.5/10 cosmetically, has a few small tolex tears but not bad overall. This cost me $850 a few months ago and I've played it for maybe an hour since then. I just can't get away from my rack gear and have come to the conclusion that heads are really not for me. I was going to keep it for a backup, but really need to clear out some gear. I'm asking $650 + shipping (I'll split the fees if you want to use paypal).

 

Have 100% positive ebay feedback, user dmtnt, and have done some good deals with forumites. PM me or e-mail me -> dmtnt13@hotmail.com, can send pics if interested. Thanks!

 

Will consider trade for a TC G-Force.
