The Marshall 50W JMP Metal is an original hand-wired vintage amplifier from the early 1970s, considered one of the most important amplifiers for hard rock, heavy blues and early metal. Its unique sound made it the preferred choice of legends such as Jimmy Page, Paul Kossoff and Ritchie Blackmore.
Legendary British Rock and High-Gain Sound
With 50 watts of power, EL34 tube power amps and pure point-to-point wiring with turret boards, the JMP Metal delivers the raw, unadulterated tube overdrive for which Marshall is famous.
Its aggressive, dynamic sound with tighter bass reproduction and pronounced mids provides a punchy distortion that becomes ever creamier and more organic with increasing volume. Without a master volume, the amplifier has to be turned up really loud to achieve the coveted satisfying tube distortion – perfect for bluesy crunch sounds, rough rock riffs and early metal power chords.

The hand-wired Turretboards and original Marshall transformers from this era ensure an extremely pure signal path and sound quality that often surpasses that of modern amps. The amplifier retains its full, open sound even at high volumes and offers a perfect combination of definition and warmth.
Conclusion: The epitome of the early 70s Marshall sound
Anyone looking for the ultimate vintage British rock sound will find it in the Marshall 50W JMP Metal. Its original handwired construction, top-quality components and explosive sound make it the perfect choice for hard rock, heavy blues and classic metal.
