The 1994 Marshall Purple Stack is an extremely rare, limited-edition commemorative rig modeled after Jimi Hendrix’s legendary late-1960s custom Marshall setups.
Key Details & Specifications
• Components: A complete stack typically includes a 1959LTD 100-watt Super Lead (SLP) all-tube head, paired with matching 1982A LTD (angled) and 1982B LTD (straight) 4x12 speaker cabinets.
• Finish: Covered in original Royal Purple tolex, a rare colorway originally produced in very limited quantities by Marshall in 1968 and 1972.
• Speakers: Cabinets are loaded with Celestion G12M Greenback reissue speakers for classic vintage crunch.
• Valves/Tubes: The head is powered by high-quality tubes (often factory or period-upgraded with valves like Tesla EL34s).
Rarity and Value
• Production Numbers: Only around 100 units were produced for the European market and approximately 100 for the U.S. market, making complete original stacks heavily sought-after collector pieces.
