Title: JTM 50 6550/kt88 Post by: 72fetter on April 14, 2008, 12:19:46 AM Just ordered my JTM 50 ;D
I am gettin ready to order my mm trannies and I am thinkin of opting for one of their axiom sets that will allow me to run 6550's or kt88's. I had a superlead with 6550's and i loved it. anyway opinions? cant wait to post the finished amp!!!!

Marshall used UK-made EL34's in the UK but shipped the amps to the States tube-less and their US distributor would pop in the US-made 6550's.

I am prob gonna mod this thing to more plexi 50 specs to get more of a heavy rock sound. Like changing the caps to 50/50. the el34's may be just right i may just need to adjust other values as well |
