Plexi 45 – based on a 1965 Marshall JTM-45
When the royal agents that we had dispatched to the UK found this particular amp, we
instantly fell in love. The amp even has the original KT-66 tubes in it, still in great
shape! It’s one of the finest examples of a JTM-45 we’ve ever heard, and it’s a constant
battle at Line 6 to see who gets to take it home for the weekend.
Those interested in the genealogy of tone will be interested to note that the JTM-45
marked the beginning of Marshall’s transition from a mellower Fender-like tone to the
distinctive, bright “crunchy” sound of the later Marshalls.
The Cabinet Model is based on a ’67 Marshall 4x12 loaded with 12-inch Celestion
Greenback 20’s.
