I might go with Marstran iron and get everything else from George. Feel free to make suggestions or add anything I may have left out.

Seems good to me. You need to specify the large power board too. Obvioulsy you have all the sockets, jacks, pots, fuse holders, lamp, switches and screws, ground tabs, wire and all that nice stuff as well. When it comes to those kinds of parts I just act like Im at the super market. I go through all the shop pages one at a time and pick out all the necessary and put it in the cart. Thats the fun part. Ordering and waiting on the stuff you realized you forgot is the shitty part.

Ive been using Brian for iron as well. I want to try more metro too but Ive been happy with Marstran.

not the 68/69 barebones type, you just need a reg, jtm45 board and You will need a different power cap board, its bigger than the one you are looking at, contact the guys at Metro and tell them you are building a jtm 45/100 I am shure they will set you up with the correct boards,

If you just put JTM100 in the notes the guys will make the right boards up when you order. Im doiung a JTM100 right now as well but Im sure youll be done first.

Thanks guys, I did email George about making a JTM-45/100 kit. So I can specify a JTM-45/100 board when I order?

I need to conjure up a parts list for my dream amp. No joke I have always wanted one ever since I started using Marshalls as my weapon of choice. First taste was a '93 1959SLP reissue with a '67 Metro Superlead ptp, then a Metro '68 Superbass now Im hooked!

In the meantime, how about a lil Jimi with his JTM-45/100?

I am thinking of maybe changing my 67 build over to a JTM 45/100 in the near future but I am still on the fence.

But if I do convert, is the larger filter board something I can order from George or is that something that only gets made when ordering boards for a new kit?
