Rare Marshall 2047 amp for sale

[pete1951]

This is an odd one, In 1972 I think Marshall were trying to make an amp that would work for any instrument.
This is a 25watt amp with Reverb and trem and a single 15” speaker ( yes 15”) so it could handle bass, guitar or keyboard.
It sounds great ( though the trem if turned up full is a bit frightening) and for a modern overdrive tone a tubescreamer is recommended
Here is a clip my repairer did, though I will make a longer one before it goes on Reverb in a couple of weeks


These seem to go for about £800 so this could go for £700 on the forum

Collection from Cambridge only, I don’t want to post it!

Everyone has gone out so I turned it up to 11 and it does have a very satisfactory overdriven tone....... but your ears my start to bleed if you don’t use a ‘power soak’ or similar .This is an old fashioned amp, so no master volume!

I love those specs for an amp, got a Valco one with 15" speaker ans trem, and that's a keeper...

Wish you a good sale !

Though the Reverb isn’t as full sounding as most Fender amps the tremolo has much more extreme settings.

I think the amp still has the original valves, this might be good for a collector though I think a new set would be good for gigs .
