Originally built to handle bass but often favoured for guitar by artists like Billy Gibbons from ZZ Top, the Super Bass was Jim Marshall's first amp which used a solid state rectifier. As well as the solid state rectifiier, the Super Bass also features slightly higher filtering giving a more immediate and 'tighter' playing feel than the regular P50. Our reproduction is based on the legendary JMP Bass (Model 1986) built around 1968 which has influenced countless players and is heard on albums from the late 60's until today. Given the many variations in any Park or Marshall circuit over the years, the particular amp we chose to reproduce was used and loved by the late, great Dan Achen of the band JunkHouse and was the go-to favorite house amp in the Catherine North Studios, Hamilton. A great amp with a great Legacy.
