Verified · 93/100 confidence. Complete schematic. All component values readable. Parameters derived directly from the circuit.

The 1959HW is Marshall's hand-wired reissue of the 100-watt Super Lead plexi head. It keeps the original two-channel, four-input layout (Normal and High Treble, which players often jumper together), a shared tone stack, no master volume, and four EL34s. It is loud and raw, built to deliver the late-1960s plexi crunch at full volume.
