  • I've got a Marshall JMP1C I'm going to sell if you're interested?  Despite what ICBM says I think they sound great!

    Depends on your budget I guess but this satellite could be an option if you want valve, small size to fit on shelf and combo format with front facing controls.

    Otherwise I'm sure someone like @4114Effects would be up for a challenge of something that would fit your needs

    ^that looks really cool! Would look a lot less out of place in a living room than my suggestion as well :)

    Sounds great clean, but drive sounds aren't good with the stock speaker.  Works ok with a Tube Screamer type pedal to give drive, but not with a pedal that has a lot of low end.

    It would probably be better with driven  sounds with a speaker swap.  I know Watford Valves used to sell a 6" Weber that would go in one of these.  I always though about getting one, but never pulled the trigger.

    Having said that, I really like the clean sounds. They are lovely.

    I haven't even turned mine on for months though.  I normally use my Kemper for playing at home.  If anyone is interested in taking it off my hands (warts and all) let me know.

    I've always fancied one of these - 



    Selmer Little Giant. Used a very battered one many years ago, very raw sound but can be surprisingly sweet with some coaxing (fingers). Unfortunately they go for crazy money nowadays on the rare occasions I've seen one turn up.
