Hammond 1750N OT for Marshall JCM800 50 Watt

• Sebastiano, 04/21/2011
  This transformer is a very good quality OT from Hammond,but lacks something of real "marshall-y" tone.The problem is the lamination,a real 784-139 use a 0.50MM not-grain oriented lamination.The 1750N have M6 GO lamination instead,that is electronically bettere but make the OT sounds more like a 100 watt Marshall,than a classic 50 watt plexy.This OT have less midrange crunch and a more tight but "less warm" bottom end,It sounds very good but is a bit different from a real Drake 784-139. a 0.50MM not-grain oriented lamination.The 1750N have M6 GO lamination instead,that is electronically bettere but make the OT sounds more like a 100 watt Marshall,than a classic 50 watt plexy.This OT have less midrange crunch and a more tight but "less warm" bottom end,It sounds very good but is a bit different from a real Drake 784-139.
