Marshall has introduced the brand-new Studio JTM, a revival of the amp that initiated it all but now in a more compact, lightweight format. In celebration of what would have been Jim Marshall’s 100th birthday and in tribute to the inaugural Marshall amp, the Studio series has unveiled its latest addition. Inspired by the 1962 JTM, the new Studio JTM offers contemporary players the same legendary warm, smooth tone that has inspired generations of musicians to unleash their musical visions upon the world.
ST20H
The new Studio JTM range comprises four distinct yet equally distinguished products: a 20W head, a 20W combo amp, a 1 × 12” cabinet, and a 2 × 12” cabinet, all adorned with period-correct aesthetics such as the iconic red enamel “coffin” logo and luxurious fawn fret.
The original JTM45 earned high praise from the likes of Gary Moore, Richie Blackmore, and Angus Young for delivering more tone, more gain, and more grit to their sound. Today, this same ethos drives the creation of the Studio JTM, meticulously recreating the JTM sound and being handcrafted in our world-class UK factory in Milton Keynes.

Terry Marshall, Jim Marshall’s son and the creator of the original JTM45, expressed, “When I was introduced to the Studio JTM and it took me back to my original JTM45, it was my sound… I feel like it’s going to be something special.”
Marshall introduces the new Studio JTM AP amp with an emphasis on convenience. It features a smaller footprint and is lighter than its historical counterpart without compromising on sound quality, making it a breeze to transport and suitable for various performance settings.
ST112
Ideal for both home use and smaller stages, the Studio JTM boasts built-in power reduction technology, enabling players to switch between 20W and 5W settings, allowing guitarists to capture the signature JTM sound anywhere.
ST212
The Studio JTM incorporates many of the components that defined the iconic JTM tone, including ECC83 preamp valves, 5881 power amp tubes, ECC83 phase splitter, and G12M-65 Creamback Celestion speakers, resulting in a unique blend of warm, growling, and versatile sound that transports you back to the heyday of rock and roll.
