Anybody know a good UK based Marshall Amp Spares supplier or do Marshall hold stocks for old amps? TIA

my amp is quite dead in the terms of reverb and sustain can i solve this with an od/dist pedal?

Save your cash for a new amp would be my advice

Thanks for the help. Im a guitar player of 20+ years but a total dimbo when it comes to electrics. Ive done a bit of soldering to do basic repairs but mostly by copying whats there already without really understanding the logic of circuits. It would be great to get a better understanding of guitar and amp electrics to repair with confidence!

Hello, I've been looking to get an old tube amp with reverb, But I'm not sure which one would be the right one for me. I don't like alot of bass, and I don't much care for the mellow tone that a fender gets. I like a lot of treble and midrange with very deep reverb. Any suggestions?

I use a late eighties Marshall 4203 Artist Combo with a 1 x 12" Celestion and 2 x EL34 in the power stage. The sprign reverb unit is pretty good and produces a big washy sound. Due to the age of the unit it occasionally "disconnects" and stops working but probably just needs a cleanup. Theyre getting hard to find. I read recently in an interview with Joe Bonamassa that he bought one in Germany and uses it to record.
