Interesting New MJW, Now With More Wood!

martinw

This the latest Roadstar from the MJW workshop. I was asked by customer Matt if I could do an oiled mahogany top panel for his combo, so I did. I've not done that much work with this kind of thing before, but I suspect I might get asked to do a bit more now. There's no reason why I couldn't use walnut, figured maple etc

The amp itself is unusual, in that it has a US and a British flavoured channel (in effect, both of my Bantams), as well as valve/spring reverb and valve tremolo. Each channel has a simple gain/tone layout with 'Fat' switch, and the reverb and trem are global.

There's also Power Scaling, and the speaker in this case is my old favourite the G12T-100. I'm really chuffed with how this one has turned out!

With the gold corners and polished wood, it reminds me of a classic sports car. British Racing Green tolex might be good too!

Looks very smart

Looks stunning, more so than if it had been a full mahogany cab.

MJW needs to go Global

That looks like one of those special edition John Petrucci Mesa amps.

Agreed, just looking for a wealthy backer!
