Ceriatone · amplifier
The Ceriatone JTM45/100 is a point-to-point hand-wired reproduction of the 100-watt version of the Marshall JTM45 circuit, the design sometimes referred to as the Bluesbreaker-era Marshall scaled up for larger venues. It keeps the warm, thick midrange and Bassman-derived character of the 45-watt original while adding substantially more headroom and volume, so breakup arrives later and the amp stays cleaner under hard playing. That extra power makes it better suited to stage use or to players who want a louder clean platform with classic British colouration. It suits blues rock and classic rock players who want early Marshall tone at volumes the smaller version cannot reach.
