Ken Bran was Jim's partner and for awhile sold some amps with a NARB label instead of marshall, park, kitchen, or whatever.

Good info. in the Doyle Marshall book.

narb is bran spelled backwards jim marshall made some amps under different names (park,kitchen-marshall, narb and a few others)to avoid his contract with his distrubition center.

I knew about Park, but I hadn't heard of Narb. That's pretty funny!

So is Park to be spelled backwards?

The cool thing about narb is only a few hundred were made of all models so even seeing one is pretty rare.
