They don't make 'em like they used to...

After dropping my Marshall Valvestate 8080 in for it's first service in 15 years (!) - I was very happy to be told it only needed 3 sockets and a crunch switch replacing + 1.5hrs labour to check everything else (£45).

Man, that amp has seen some use and abuse over the years so fair play to Marshall for that one...

Yep, my valvestate (8240) has seen alot of use, in alot of places and all it's needed is a jack clean/resolder

I love my 8240! I got it brand new in the early 90s. it's now my living room amp, and it's still going strong, never had to do anything to it.

I love my Silver Jubilee Micro Stack. In fact, I have three micros. The only bad part is the POS pots they use. I'm going to pull them out and put in some good quality pots. This amp deserves it - I play the hell out of it.

I love my DSL100 as well, but the transistor is just easier, just turn it on and go (no tube warm up time). What can I say, I'm impatient.
