Purple and Orange Marshalls

Ive seen them in the JCM800 versions. But, is there any way to buy an already black marshall and get it painted (or do it urself) what ever colour you want?

Not sure tho, cause it might wreck the shell.

I suppose you could paint the head if you really wanted to, but you'll run the risk of getting paint inside the amp and possibly setting yourself up for future damage. I've seen a few painted heads, and they really look rather poor.

The best bet is to get the amp re-tolexed with the color you'd like. I know amp shops like Splawn offer the service, and you may be able to get it done locally, or just buy the tolex and try it yourself. Here's a place that sells tolex: http://www.vibroworld.com/parts/tech11.html

I have a Super Lead that was recovered in white and an Artist head recovered in purple, and the custom colors look really cool. They definitely stand out:
