Marshall has a 1959 modified and JCM 800 modified, god that 800 sounds great. They also did a low wattage JCM 900

The pricing is what is not sitting right with me. Will stick with the Pandora modded 2203X I have on the shelf.

Lmaoooo

A modded Marshall reissue for $3700

Or I can pick up a NEW Bogner Helios 100 for $500 less.

Wtf in the US is going to pick a shitty reissue over a handwired Bogner that’s almost the same format? CharvelDowns? Even that retard knows better.

Studio 900 could be interesting for the home recording setup.

Bogners don't really tend to interest me much as I haven't spent a whole lot of time looking into what their various models do, but the Helios seems like a much better choice. The control face plate has a weird pattern I'm not keen on, but I probably wouldn't even spend more than 15-20 seconds at a time looking at it, so whatever. Isn't something I'd spend $400 more over.

I can see what you mean on their core line amps, but the Helios is a handwired modified Plexi style amp with much better components and construction.

Hell a Friedman BE100 is only $4k.

$3700 for a reissue Marshall is retarded.

The Helios also looks like the part, so it would fit with someone's Sourmash, Mojotone, etc. Marshall-esque cab as well.

Absolutely insane pricing. Plenty other amps I'd rather own for that money.
