Ted,
I sense that you are very passionate about the Marshall JTM45's and 1962 combo's. Here is where I was coming from:
1) I personally think the Bluesbreaker reissue is one of the best sounding reissues out there while still box stock.
2) I really, really care about people and their feelings. My thought was to let TxMack get his amp, play it awhile and if he liked it the way it was, fine. If not, then I thought a few of us here could suggest a few tweaks to make it even better sounding such as changing speakers and component swaps. That was why I said in my original post to play it a couple days and let us know what he thought.
To be quite honest, I was concerned that you jumped right in to make sure that TxMack aware that his new purchase was not totally historically accurate even before it hit his doorstep. He hadn't even had a chance to play it yet. Maybe that wasn't your intention but that is how I perceived it. If I was wrong in my assessment, then please accept my apology.
I must take some rebuke for saying it was one of the most authentic reissues out there because that precipitated your comments about its inaccuracies.
I have printed your list of mods for the JTM45 and will peruse them at my first opportunity. (that means it will be my bedtime reading material tonight)
One of the reasons I love this site is that people share their thoughts, ideas, new purchases, etcetera and encourage one another while having fun. Not all web sites are that way.
NOCD, you are a classy host for the amp section.
Respectfully submitted,
