Extremely Rare IRON MAIDEN Guitar Amp Available On eBay

July 22, 2006

According to MaidenNorway.com, an extremely rare item has surfaced on eBay, which is a definite must-have for any serious guitar-playing IRON MAIDEN fan. If you've got £4,500 (about $8,400) lying around that you don't know what to do with, and you play the guitar — check out the Marshall JMP 50 amp that has appeared on eBay. This is, according to the seller, one of 500 amps made for IRON MAIDEN exclusively.

In the eBay listing, the seller states: "Marshall JMP 50 short chassis, as made for IRON MAIDEN in the '70s, only a batch of 500 were made for them specifically to tour with, as obviously as any rock band knows you gig hard you play hard and need backup amps. This amp has been restored by guitar guru Pete Cornish, who does the PINK FLOYD pedal boards and all of Jimmy Page's effects and amps, he actually remembered the amp when I took it into his workshop! The amp has a 4-watt to 75-watt switch, it's a 50-watt amp but Pete rated it at 75 watts!. I have all the circuit board pictures and can take more to satisfy anyone's curiosity, this is such a good amp I don't wanna let it go. I reserve the right to end the auction early. The amp is sold as seen. I have a good courier who handles a lot of music gear, so they take care."
