Full-tube amp head
Whether it’s alongside Jimi Hendrix or many other guitar heroes, this amp was and is constantly found as a companion – the “1959” is arguably the Marshall amp with the most eventful history, with the most reissues and special series, that has ever existed in the history of the Brits. And since 2004, there has been (parallel to the 1959SLP from the New Vintage series) yet another edition. The 1959HW is a very special treat, because it is completely hand-wired using the exact same manufacturing techniques to produce Jimi Hendrix’s stage amps (at that time still in Jim Marshall’s first factory in Hayes).
We will waste no more words on the sound qualities of this amp – that would be superfluous.
