Will probably try and get one some day
Where is the 20W version, or even the 50W? Why no combo with it - it's as applicable to a 20W 1x12" as it is to a full-width head on a 4x12"?

I'm a Peavey 6505+ owner and I love the tone to death. However the clean tones and middle of the rock overdrive sounds aren't easily achievable and don't sound nice on it. Its kinda a one-trick-pony but its a good trick!
I have a TS9 too which I've used with amps and its my secret weapon. I have heard 800's paired with Full Tone OCD's and Tubescreamers, they got some serious balls!!

First time was one of TTony's guitars into the JMP combo and second time playing Rabs' single cut into the JCM800 (which would have been my last choice of amp). Loved it, though.
Yup, the 1x12 combo is a great sounding amp and considerably more practical than a full size head and cab. I can fit it in the boot of a Skoda Citigo!
Marshall really should reissue it with an added fx loop and maybe a switch to engage the bright cap. You could add attenuators, emulated DI and all that stuff but I sort of think it would be missing the point a bit.
It just baffles me that they don't already.
I'd put the FX loop in - since they already do on the reissue 2203 - but not the other stuff. That takes you onto the slippery slope they always go down of changing everything...
Their R&D department need to just take a deep breath and accept that they don't need to re-invent the wheel every time.
