I have a 1975 Marshall JMP Super Bass Mk II head for sale.
Here it is:
It's in not-bad cosmetic condition. I gave it a good clean up, Marshall gave me a new handle as well. It smells most fragrant.
It is dickhead loud. The previous owner hasn't exactly maintained it well. It works but it could do with a service and some tubes replaced. Nothing heavy. I bought it as I'd been borrowing an earlier MkI super bass off a friend that sounds amazing, this one didn't quite sound as good so I had Marshall look it over and quote me for basically making this one sound like the older model exactly and they quoted £140 including full revalve and a courier to deliver it, so it's not a big job and if you're competent as an amp-fiddler you could do it yourself.
Not having 140 pence at the moment means I'm selling it as it is for £350. If any of you Americans like the look of it then UPS will deliver it to you for £141 making the total just under $1000 which is apparently cheap for a vintage JMP according to the investment bankers on the Gear Page.
I also have a matching, slightly later, 4x12 cab for it. It's the bass cab model, it's from 1980 and has 4 x Marshall logo Celestion black-backed speakers in it at a rating of 260watts. It sounds killer for guitar. That one is £175
Someone please buy my Marshall JMP
2sound like Noel Redding and buy this amp!
It's stupidly loud, but in a good way.

4I'd trade you something for it. Shipping in both directions is kinda ugly and all, but... what kind of trade might you consider?

5Well, shipping from the UK to the US is £141 according to UPS.
I guess I would be more into trading for a guitar than an amp as I have my quota of large amplifiers...

6I have the same head, well, I think mine is a year newer, but the same model. I can attest, it is killer. Louder than most people will ever need, and sounds great. I hope someone jumps on this, its a good deal.

7Agreed. They're insanely loud and amazing amps. The '72 I use for recording (that belongs to the studio) sounds perfect to me.
I am into the idea of trades, I guess think of something worth about $1000 including shipping to the UK, or UK folks think of something worth 350 quid.

9I use a THD hotplate with mine, and I had to keep it at "-12" for most applications (thats basically the setting before "off"). Sounds soooo good as a bass head too. Total Lemmy style punch if you jump the channels.

10I may be wrong but wasn't 76 the first year for rocker switches and even a very few at that? Just wondering if the date of this amp needs to be checked.
