I see no amp threads have been added to the new forum yet, so lets get started. Here's a pic of my current stash. :geek:

What’s the Marshall? Bluesbreaker? 1974?

That's a 18 watt 1x12 replica that I had Gabi Bucataru (sp?) From the 18 watt forum build me back in 2004.

Jeff Swanson built the cab and Gabi did the rest.

It's the only non-vintage amp I have at the moment.

Hey man :mrgreen:
Yeah, they're great little amps! This is an early one from 1974.

Hmmm. It's gone wonky? The URL itself looks the right way up (on my browser at least). :?

Edit: it’s the right way up on my phone (iPhone using Safari) but sideways in my PC using Chrome.

Look nice! What is it exactly?

Btw, I've seen this sideways issue on others forums. I think it has to do with phones vs computers or something.

It's a Marshall Class 5. It's one of the revised ones from around 2011 (ish) with the low power mode and upgraded cabinet.
