CS1962G-01-H<br />

Marshall 1962 <strong>Willen</strong> <strong>Hospice</strong> Celebration “Bluesbreaker” combo<br />

The sound that launched <strong>the</strong> British blues invasion.<br />

The Bluesbreaker, which derives its nickname from being used by Eric Clapton with John Mayall & The<br />

Bluesbreakers, is credited with delivering "<strong>the</strong> sound that launched British blues-rock in <strong>the</strong> mid-1960s. It<br />

was Marshall's first combo amplifier, and was described as "arguably <strong>the</strong> most important [amplifier] in <strong>the</strong><br />

company's history" and “<strong>the</strong> definitive rock amplifier”.<br />

With 30W output and 2x12 speakers, it produces a gutsy bass and vibrant top, coupled with overall natural<br />

warmth.<br />

The Marshall 1962 Bluesbreaker all valve combo amplifier is based on <strong>the</strong> JTM45, widely considered to be<br />

<strong>the</strong> definitive '60s Marshall. With 30 watts of power connected to a pair of Celestion G12M-25 “Greenback”<br />

speakers, a footswitchable tremolo effect you'll command <strong>the</strong> legendary guitar tones of '60s rock legends.<br />

The 1962 Bluesbreaker's sonic sweetness comes courtesy of a GZ34 valve rectifier, which imparts <strong>the</strong><br />

natural sustain and compression <strong>the</strong> JTM45 was famed for. Simply put, you'll love how it sounds - and feels<br />

- to play through <strong>the</strong> Marshall 1962 Bluesbreaker valve combo amplifier. The amp controls are Speed,<br />

Intensity, Presence, Bass, Middle, Treble, Volume I, and Volume 2. There are four quarter inch input jacks;<br />

two for each Volume Control. The amp has two input channels which share <strong>the</strong> same EQ, and Presence<br />

settings. Channel 1 has more treble response than Channel 2; Channel 2 on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r hand is <strong>the</strong> channel you<br />

use for Tremolo. You can also use a short quarter inch patch cable and use both channels with a single guitar<br />

by patching input Channel 2 into input Channel 1.<br />

This one-off 1962G-01 Bluesbreaker combo has been hand built for <strong>Willen</strong> <strong>Hospice</strong> here at Marshalls<br />

Custom Shop in Bletchley, Milton Keynes and features a Gold plated Chassis, original “Bluesbreaker Cloth”<br />

speaker grille and is hand finished in classic Black Levant vinyl covering.<br />

A truly unique amplifier and often cited as Jim Marshall OBE’s proudest and favourite designs, this<br />

combination Amplifier is <strong>the</strong> ultimate Marshall collectable.<br />
