NMV JCM800

Found out recently that Marshall made non-master volume JCM 800 amps in the 80's. The master volume versions were more popular so the non-master amps were kinda rare.

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a good combo amp. Due to weight lifting restrictions (30 lbs) it'd most likely have to be a 1x10 or 1x12 solid state unfortunately. In my history with the AxeFX III, I'm on my 4th problem and will be selling it once it's fixed. Hate to go this route but...

Echoplex preamp

Just wondering if there's a way to duplicate the subtle EQ boost of the pedal with the array of drive pedals we already have. Very subtle but to my ears, very effective too. Dunlop and a couple others make them but we've got so many to pick from in the AF3, I'm hoping there's a way to do it.
