Marshall Vintage Modern 2266 Tube Amp Head
Vintage and Modern! These are two words that don't normally sit comfortably together unless you're talking guitar amplification. The Vintage aspect is, of course, the tone - fat, smooth, classic, and dynamic. The Modern aspect is the feature-set included to enable ease of use and flexibility - Master Volume, series FX Loop, extra overdrive for those hot "modded" sounds, onboard Reverb and a new frequency selective pre-amp topology to facilitate tonal tailoring for specific instruments and musical styles.

This is not a real high gain amp, but the overdrive button gets you fairly close to the "modern" sound. Clean "vintage" setting is quiet and very very tasty: the best sound I have heard with P-90s, except maybe for a Tweed Bassman. Unusual two-knob tone controls make this amp fairly easy to adjust: not a lot of dials to screw around with. The color is a deep purple so won't match your black cabinets perfectly. The stock 4x12s have Celestion Greenbacks in matching purple levant covering. Very well built but I have not fooled around with after-market re-tubing, etc., so I can't tell how easy this is to maintain.
