I'm ready to order a JCM 800 2204 complete with cab and tubes. I was wondering how long it takes to get the amp?
I've been using 2 JMP Mark II 50 watt heads since new, and they have had repair several times in the last 2 years.
Last saturday a friend brought one of Nik's JCM 800's for me to try, and with my back to the amps I could'nt tell the difference.
GOTTA HAVE ONE!

You will have to ask Nik what his lead time is.
As far as quality.....Ceriatone is going to be better made than almost anything that has a Marshall logo on it. I refer, of course, to what is being made today, not the hand wired amps of 30 years ago.
Nik builds as good a amplifier as anybody on the planet. But keep in mind, stuff (especially tubes) can be damaged during shipping. No builder would ever ship a dead amp, but it is not unheard of for a tube to fail during the shipping process.  Otherwise, that amp will only need maintenance for the next 3-4 decades.
Good Luck
