Hi guy's. I have been gone a while. I ordered a Quickrod in 2009 and had trouble getting along with it. My son now has a 2009 Nitro that just kills!
So I had the opportunity to buy a Splawn modded Marshall Re-Issue 1959 Plexi. I am really looking forward to comparing it to the Nitro, Friedman BE 100 gen 1 & gen 2, Cameron Snorkler, Diezel VH4. These were the keepers. I went through a bunch of fizzy amps. The video from the seller sounded great...with a little more highs (scooped) i guess than my 2009 QR.
No disrespect meant. Best to all, New Religion...♫

After reading I realize the Scott modded Marshall 1959 SL belonged to a fellow member... "AndyK". Great guy to deal with. Thanks Andy. David...♫
SORRY I tried to insert a Youtube video but it continues to read Error.

Cool man, from what I hear they are some bad ass amps! I myself have a Friedman modded super lead BE/HBE and I love it.
I would love to play a Splawn modded plexi.

I am diggin' the Scott modded Marshall SLP 100...
It has the 2 channel's Clean and OD with OD 1 & OD 2 in addition to a solo Boost with a 3 button foot switch.
Think I will take it with me tonight and put it through a 4 hour gig with my Live rig which consist of a "J" model December 2015 Friedman BE 100 (Primary gigging amp) and my Plexistein DH-50 (reversed engineered but with a lot of my own changes to eliminate the Cantrell honk) Mark Cameron inspired Snorkler built for Armand Crump (RIP) Slayer Tech.
I usually never use the clean channels of any amps as I roll back the guitar volume knob to clean up for Simple Man etc...to full up Man in the Box etc...
Scott did a great job on this SLP Reissue...I prefer it over the 2009 QR I owned as we all know each amp can be quite individual.
My sons 2009 Nitro just kicks A$$...It has so much clear articulate low end. More than needed in fact but is responsive and controllable. Truly a work of art in and of it self.
I am about to start on a new design based off of the HBE 100 circuit as a one channel but will need to locate a vendor that can provide custom spec'd Transformers as that is where the extra magic lies...
Peace...David ♫

I called Scott to date the amp as it has no Serial number from Marshall other than R/I (Reissue) and an 8 character ser# RF104032 in addition to (I forgot to ask about PHP-4.6) all in black marker...along with his shop sticker and US National Flag. It has stoch Dagnall PT/OT and a Splawn Merc-Mag Choke.
Scott estimated it to be from 2002-3. All boards inside are Scott's. Sounds great!
Philipians:4.6 PHP-4.6 (?) =
do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

After being gone for so long, I saw your post title and thought Scott was doing Marshalls again! Welcome back to the family! Those are some great amps you have. I have played a few VH4's and they freakin' kill. I also had the pleasure of knowing "Butts". We did a few festivals together when I was a young tech and he and Warren scared the hell out of me before I finally met them!

Congrats NewReligion. Enjoy. After being gone for so long, I saw your post title and thought Scott was doing Marshalls again! Welcome back to the family! Those are some great amps you have. I have played a few VH4's and they freakin' kill. I also had the pleasure of knowing "Butts". We did a few festivals together when I was a young tech and he and Warren scared the hell out of me before I finally met them! I was under the impression that Scott is doing marshalls again. splawnfans.proboards.com/thread/10080/splawn-modded-marshall-1959-plexi |

Whoa, it has been a while! That's cool, I wonder if it is the same mod as the originals or if it's a new mod
