ELECTRIC TUBE AMPLIFIERS: 50W SERIES (1966-1981)

This series was introduced in 1966 and is an updated version of the JTM45. There were some tube changes amongst other electronics inside the amp, while the cosmetics on the outside changed as well. In 1967, the "JTM 50" and "MK II" labels had been replaced by JTM. In 1968, the steel chassis was introduced and the initials JMP (Jim Marshall Products) were added. In 1969, the Plexiglas panel were changed to gold aluminum. It should be noted that in the price lines, 1969 refers to models having Plexi panels and 1970 for the aluminum, even though an aluminum amp may have been produced in 1969. This series was discontinued in 1981, when the JCM-800 series was introduced.
