All of this could be yours, for the low, low price of just $9,999!

I dunno, Marshall just dramatically dropped their prices across the board by cutting out the US middleman

They're releasing a special edition commemorative anniversary item.

This quote caught my attention:
"But at the same time, [the second thing we’re clear on is that] we don't have all of the products that the guitarist today expects of us, when it comes to digital amplifiers, or digital products, in general."

I hope this means Marshall will come out with some high gain amps for modern metal.
Diversifying their amp line, a bit more, couldn't hurt.

I think it most likely means they are working on some Marshall amp sims, maybe with Neural or something. Or maybe some kind of MFX/modeling unit. They specifically mention digital stuff twice in that quote.

A modern iteration of the JMP-1 would be cool.

Marshall actually had a really decent tube/digital hybrid amp, the JMD:1 it was short lived because of reliability issues bit it actually sounded good.

A few guys on the Marshall forum swore by the JMDs. And they sounded legit.

Yeah, I agree... I'm thinking a little too far outside the kitty litter box.


This was also interesting...
QUESTION: So there will be options for in-house mod builds?
ANSWER: “We're working on this.”

It would be cool if they made plug-and-play mod circuits... a Jose mod (for example) that can be easily popped into a socket on the chassis.

That would be a cool spin on the synergy concept Mayve

The more I think about it , I don't think it would be possible. The various mod tap into different areas of the entire amp circuit.
It would be very difficult to route all the possible connections to one plug.
It was a good idea while it lasted!

I suppose, they could offer the Jose mod (or other popular mod) as an on/off switch.

Something like the Legendary Tones Hot Mod could work.

But I think they're talking about a Custom Shop/Mod Shop, like guitar companies have. That would be an interesting concept for amps, but it would probably be based in the UK. Although they have a vast network of service centers in the US that could perform the mods.
EVH did something like that for a while, offering a mod kit to upgrade the original 5150 50w to the new version with the concentric pots, through their service center network.
